VRTX Trading Rewards — Avalanche

Avalanche users can earn $VRTX rewards by trading on Vertex Edge (Avalanche) as both a maker and taker.

Trading on Vertex is designed to be effortless yet rewarding. Whether you are trading spot and / or perpetuals, each executed trade contributes to your eligibility for rewards.

Rewards are distributed in VRTX, Vertex’s native utility token, which can be staked to further amplify your benefits or reinvested into your trading activities.

VRTX Rewards for Sonic users are available to both:

  • Takers

  • Makers

Please note that Avalanche users will need to switch to the Arbitrum One network to claim their VRTX trading rewards.

  • However, rewards are still earned by using the Avalanche deployment of Vertex. The VRTX rewards for Avalanche users are viewable on the "Rewards" page of the Vertex app.

  • Only claiming VRTX rewards requires switching to Arbitrum.

How to Earn Trading Rewards on Avalanche

For every trade you make, Vertex allocates reward points based on factors such as:

  • Trading Volume: Higher volumes yield greater rewards.

  • Asset Pairs: Certain trading pairs may offer enhanced incentives.

A fixed pool of VRTX tokens are available to traders each epoch – weekly. VRTX rewards are allocated to users on a pro-rata basis relative to the total pool size of VRTX for that epoch of weekly trading.

The total pool of available VRTX trading rewards each epoch (weekly) are split between makers and takers as follows:

  • Makers = 75%

  • Takers = 25%

Taker Rewards — VRTX

Taker rewards are calculated for each user pro-rata as a percentage of the total pool of taker fees paid by users in a given weekly epoch.

A taker order qualifies as any order that immediately crosses the book and takes liquidity, such as filled market orders.

Maker Rewards — VRTX

  • Market Support

  • Uptime

  • Fees

Total Reward Pool: Each epoch (~7 days) allocates VRTX tokens for rewards, split dynamically between 5 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 Incentivizes: This system encourages active engagement where it is most impactful. For example:

Higher maker activity on Arbitrum results in more VRTX maker rewards for that chain.

Increased taker activity on Avalanche leads to more VRTX taker rewards for Avalanche.
