Across is the first protocol to implement reward locking. It is used to further incentivize bridge liquidity positions by incrementally increasing reward APY over time for users who stake capital. For Across’ reward locking programming, an LP’s multiplier starts at 1x on day zero and can grow linearly to a maximum of 2x after capital has been staked for 100+ days.
Reward multipliers reset to 1x once rewards have been claimed or liquidity is unstaked.
50,000 → ~75,000 ACX per day for Across ETH LP tokens
50,000 → ~75,000 ACX per day for Across USDC LP tokens
5,000 → ~7,500 ACX per day for Across USDT LP tokens
5,000 → ~7,500 ACX per day for Across DAI LP tokens
5,000 → ~7,500 ACX per day for Across WBTC LP tokens
20,000 → ~30,000 ACX per day for Across ACX LP tokens
When you stake LP tokens on Across, you are automatically entered into the reward locking program and will immediately begin earning a higher APY incrementally each day. Please note that your APY multiplier will reset to 1x once capital is unstaked or rewards are claimed.
When you add additional tokens to your already existing staked assets your reward multiplier will change based on the average age of capital. Our formula uses the time-weighted sum of deposits.
For example, if you deposit 10 tokens at time 1, the average age of capital is 1. If you deposit the next 5 tokens at time 5, the average age of capital = (1 * (10/15) + 5 * (5/15)) = 2.3333

Risk Labs (the foundation that supports UMA and Across Protocol) has deployed a contract called the () to allow any project to implement the concept of reward locking. You can read the full details in our.
