Ava Staking & Locking
The Ava token plays a vital role in the Solidus Synth ecosystem, offering holders multiple ways to earn rewards through staking and locking mechanisms. These options allow participants to earn real yield from protocol fee distributions while contributing to the stability of the synthetic asset ecosystem.
Staking & Locking Overview
Ava holders can either stake or lock their tokens for rewards:
Stake Ava – Earn a share of protocol fees with no lockup.
Lock Ava– Lock your Ava for 4 weeks to earn a higher share of rewards from all sources of protocol revenue in an array of tokens.
How Staking Works
Ava stakers receive platform fees generated by Synth minting and redemption transactions.
No lockup period – Users can unstake at any time and claim rewards.
Rewards distributed in native Avax
✅ Best for: Users who want flexibility and passive rewards without locking up funds.
How Locking Works
Locking Ava increases rewards by granting access to:
Platform Fees – Earn a higher portion of real yield mint/redemption fees compared to unlocked staking.
Rehypothecation rewards - Ava lockers earn extra bonus rewards including chain gas tokens and partner dex tokens from protocol rehypothecated farming using synth backing and staked LPs.
Early Withdrawal Penalty Fees – Lockers are also rewarded the 50% early exit penalty fees collected from users who exit their LP reward vesting early.
4-week lockup period – During this time, tokens cannot be withdrawn.
✅ Best for: Users who want higher returns and don’t need immediate access to their tokens.
Epoch System & Reward Distribution
Solidus Synth operates on a 7-day epoch system, where rewards and distributions are calculated and updated on a weekly cycle.
Rewards accrue throughout the epoch and are available for claim at the end of each period.
Users can view their staking and locking status on the Staking Dashboard.
Withdrawals are available at the end of each epoch no matter the time you start the lock or vest during an epoch period
