User Parameters
Amount of CRV tokens you lock to receive veCRV. Higher lockup increases your boost multiplier and voting power in the protocol.
veCRV = lockedCRV × (remainingWeeks / 208)
How long you commit to lock tokens. 208 weeks = 4 years (max). Longer lockup = higher veCRV balance = higher yield boost. Your veCRV decays linearly to zero at unlock.
How many weeks have passed since locking. Your current veCRV = lockedCRV × (lockPeriod - weeksElapsed) / 208. As time passes, boost decays.
Your liquidity amount in USD deposited to earn trading fees and CRV rewards. Larger deposits = larger absolute returns, but the boost multiplier is independent.
Percentage of your deposit staked in the gauge contract. Only staked balance earns CRV rewards. 100% = all liquidity earning CRV + trading fees.
Pool and Gauge Parameters
Total value locked in this Curve pool. Used to calculate your share of trading fees and CRV emissions. Larger TVL = your rewards spread across more capital.
Your share of fees = userDeposit / totalTVL
Percentage of pool TVL staked in gauge. Rewards are only distributed among gauged liquidity. 70% = 70% of pool earning CRV, 30% earning only fees.
Annual yield from pool trading commissions. Distributed proportionally to all LPs regardless of veCRV boost. Does not depend on lock duration.
Fee yield = deposit × (Trading Fees APY / 100)
Average boost multiplier of all users in this gauge. Used to assess your personal boost relative to others. Higher avg = harder to achieve high relative boost.
Relative boost efficiency = yourBoost / avgGaugeBoost
Curve System Parameters
Sum of all veCRV across the entire Curve protocol. Your share = yourVeCRV / totalVeCRV. Determines max boost: 2.5x when you own significant veCRV share.
Max boost for 100% deposit: min(2.5, 1 + 1.5 × yourVeCRV / totalVeCRV)
Global CRV token generation rate. Distributed across all gauges weighted by veCRV votes. Lower emission = fewer tokens to distribute.
Annual emission = tokenPerSec × 31,536,000 seconds
Percentage of total CRV emissions allocated to this specific gauge. Determined by veCRV holder votes weekly. Higher weight = more CRV rewards for this pool.
Market price of CRV in dollars. Used to convert token rewards to USD value for APY calculation. Market volatility directly affects real returns.
