Mechanism for distribution incentives:
Taker Rewards: Trading expenditure on taker fees is measured over the course of a weekly epoch. Once each epoch is completed we will build a merkle tree and register the merkle tree with the contract so that users can claim their ARB tokens using the proof.
LP Rewards: Users can also earn ARB rewards by acting as an LP for Elixir’s Fusion Pools through orderbook pairs on Vertex or becoming an LP on the Vertex Liquidity Vault on SkateFi.
Summary of incentives plan:
Up to 100,000 ARB to be distributed per week to price takers on Vertex with maximum determined as 75% of trading fees. (calculated using ARB value at end of weekly epoch)
Up to 12,500 ARB to be distributed to LP on Elixir with maximum determined as a 15% APR on TVL (calculated using ARB value at end of weekly epoch)
Up to 12,500 ARB to be distributed to LP on SkateFi with maximum determined as a 15% APR on TVL (calculated using ARB value at the end of weekly epoch)
