Platform Earnings

A breakdown of platform earnings

Gradient platform earnings are intended for the use of market-buying $GRAY in order to distribute rewards to protocol participants.

Liquidity Rewards

Gradient aims to allocate approximately 50% of the aforementioned collected earnings to rewarding liquidity providers platform wide. This is done with the intention of rewarding all liquidity providers—not just those involved in a specific trade—encouraging decentralized and balanced liquidity across pairs.

In this way, the Gradient fee model:

• Encourages long-term participation

• Incentivizes diversified liquidity provision

• Attempts to prevent capital concentration

• Supports healthier trading depth platform wide

$GRAY Sustainability

Gradient aims to allocate approximately 50% of platform earnings to supporting $GRAY’s ecosystem (through measures like token burns & rewards to $GRAY liquidity providers on Gradient).

For example, a portion of bought-back tokens may be burned to reduce supply, and other portions may be distributed to $GRAY stakers and liquidity providers as an incentive. However, these parameters are subject to change, and any fee-utilization program is implemented at the protocol’s discretion without guaranteeing any particular outcome or value.
