Cross-Chain VRTX Rewards
Learn how the cross-chain VRTX rewards between supported Edge chains are calculated.
The VRTX trading rewards are available to users on multiple chains plugged into Vertex Edge.
Vertex Edge ensures dynamic rewards distribution across its supported chains by tailoring incentives to support each blockchain’s unique liquidity profile and order flow.
Key Features of Rewards Distribution
Total Reward Pool: Each epoch (~7 days) allocates VRTX tokens for rewards, split dynamically between chains supported by Vertex Edge:
Arbitrum
Mantle
Base
Sei
Sonic
Abstract
Avalanche
Dynamic Reward Allocation: The allocation of rewards adjusts based on activity and performance metrics for each chain, ensuring incentives align with user participation and liquidity needs.
Balanced Incentivization: This system encourages active engagement where it is most impactful. For example:
Higher maker activity on Arbitrum results in more VRTX maker rewards for Arbitrum.
Increased taker activity on Sonic leads to more VRTX taker rewards for Sonic.
Reward Calculations – Makers
Let X1, X2, X3, X4 represent the VRTX rewards allocated to makers on Arbitrum, Sei, Mantle, Base, and Sonic. Where i refers to each chain — Arbitrum, Sei, Mantle, Base, Avalanche, Abstract and Sonic.
Reward Calculations – Takers
Let Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4 represent the VRTX rewards allocated to takers on Arbitrum, Sei, Mantle, Base, and Sonic. Where i refers to each chain — Arbitrum, Sei, Mantle, Base, Avalanche, Abstract, and Sonic.
Summary of Cross-Chain Rewards
q-scores (makers) and taker fees (takers) dynamically influence VRTX rewards allocation across Arbitrum, Sei, Mantle, Base, Abstract, Avalanche, and Sonic.
The Total Rewards Pool (split into maker and taker rewards) is allocated to traders based on the formulas above.
This expanded model maintains fairness and responsiveness to each chain’s activity, incentivizing liquidity and trading where it is most needed.
By dynamically allocating rewards based on real-time activity, Vertex Edge ensures that incentives align with chain-specific demand and liquidity needs. This ensures that rewards are distributed efficiently, encouraging healthy activity across all four chains supported by Vertex.
