Epoch Explained

Epochs are the weekly cycle that governs voting, incentives, and emissions in Lithos.\

Duration

  • Each Epoch lasts 7 days, from Thursday to Thursday.
  • Resets occur at 00:00 UTC (Wednesday–Thursday night).

Voting

  • Votes must be cast every Epoch.
  • Vote weights reset automatically at the start of a new cycle.
  • The “Revote” option lets you repeat your previous votes with one click.

Incentives

  • Voting incentives (bribes) can be deposited at any time during the Epoch.
  • Incentives must be in place before the reset to count for the upcoming cycle.
  • veLITH holders only earn from pools they actively voted for.

Rewards

  • Rewards are distributed once the Epoch ends.
  • Fees and incentives become claimable as a lump sum.
  • The anti-dilution rebase (30% of emissions) is applied to all veLITH holders.

Emissions

  • LITH emissions are recalculated each Epoch based on votes.
  • Pools with more votes and incentives receive larger allocations.
