Staking

veVIRTUAL:

veVIRTUAL is the vote-escrowed version of $VIRTUAL, earned by locking tokens to unlock deeper utility in the Virtuals Protocol.

It’s designed to align long-term incentives and reduce token churn, giving holders more influence, more rewards, and a stronger stake in the future of the ecosystem.

Holding veVIRTUAL gives you:

  • Daily Virgen Points, proportional to your veVIRTUAL balance

  • Eligibility for Genesis Airdrops, based on veVIRTUAL holdings

  • Governance Power (Coming Soon) — shape the future of Virtuals onchain

Getting veVIRTUAL:

Stake $VIRTUAL to receive veVIRTUAL. The amount depends on how much you lock, and for how long (up to 2 years). veVIRTUAL decays linearly over time and reaches zero at unlock.

Auto Max-Lock Mode:

Enable Auto Max-Lock to always stake with the maximum lock period (2 years). This gives 1:1 voting power and the highest possible veVIRTUAL multiplier, until you disable it.

veVIRTUAL Voted Agent Points (VVAP)

veVIRTUAL holders (i.e. $VIRTUAL stakers) can now vote to determine how 10% of the total daily point supply is distributed across all active projects on Virtuals Protocol. This voting-driven allocation is categorized as veVIRTUAL Voted Agent Points (VVAP).

How it works:

  • 10% of the total daily point supply is allocated based on veVIRTUAL voting outcomes.

    Note: The 10% allocation for veVIRTUAL voting outcomes may be adjusted in the future

  • Projects receive a share of this allocation proportional to their vote percentage.

  • VVAP is distributed on daily basis to the stakers of voted project, pro-rata to their staking amount

Epoch System (Voting follows a continuous 7-day rolling cycle):

  • Each session lasts 7 days, during which veVIRTUAL holders can vote.

  • Once the voting period ends, results are locked and used to determine VVAP distribution for the next 7 days.

  • A new voting session begins immediately after the previous one concludes.

Why this matters

  • Empowers veVIRTUAL holders to actively shape ecosystem growth

  • Aligns point emissions with long-term conviction, not short-term behavior

  • Reinforces value-driven participation and filters passive farming

This mechanism ensures that point flow reflects community conviction, not just activity.
