Add Gauges

Gauge Creation

Any user can create a gauge for a liquidity pool without the need to hold veLITH. Creating a gauge enables that pool to receive voting incentives from veLITH holders. Once a gauge is active, partners and participants can deposit incentives, and veLITH voters can direct emissions to the pool.

  • Voting Incentives
    Gauges allow pools to attract veLITH votes by offering incentives, increasing liquidity depth and visibility.
  • Emissions Access
    Once a gauge is created, the pool becomes eligible to receive LITH emissions based on weekly governance votes.
  • Ecosystem Growth
    Gauges make it possible for new pools and projects to participate in Lithos’ incentive structure, strengthening overall liquidity.

How to Add a Gauge

  1. Connect your wallet to Lithos.
  2. Navigate to More → Protocols in the dashboard.
  3. Select Add Gauge.
  4. Choose the pool you want to add a gauge for and confirm the transaction.

Important Notes

  • Pool tokens must be whitelisted before a gauge can be created.
  • To request token whitelisting, follow the process described in Token Whitelisting.
  • Once a gauge is live, partners can begin depositing incentives at any point during an Epoch.
