Introducing V Locking: Earn Weekly PYR Rewards


November 11, 2025

The VulcanX ecosystem continues to evolve, introducing new ways to reward active community members while strengthening the link between $V and $PYR.

With V Locking, users can lock their V tokens to earn automatic weekly PYR rewards, powered directly by ecosystem fee revenue.

This system replaces traditional locking models with a more transparent and sustainable mechanism — designed to enhance liquidity, reward long-term holders, and close the loop between the exchange and the broader Vulcan Forged economy.

How It Works

When you lock your $V, you automatically earn weekly $PYR rewards.

These rewards come from ecosystem fees generated across VulcanX — including exchange trading, swaps, and marketplace activity — and are distributed every Sunday, directly to your wallet.

Each Monday, the reward pool resets for a new weekly cycle.

This model creates a self-sustaining reward loop, where real ecosystem activity continually fuels buybacks and payouts.

 

Key Highlights

  • Rewards in $PYR, paid weekly (auto every Sunday)
  • Reward pool resets every Monday
  • V Drip integration — V locked in the V Drip program also counts toward your total weight
  • Boost multipliers for duration, amount, and NFT ownership
  • Ecosystem fees recycled via $PYR and $V buybacks to maintain sustainability

Core Parameters

Parameter Description
Lock Token V
Reward Token PYR
Reward Frequency Weekly (auto every Sunday)
Claim Mechanism Automatic — PYR sent directly to wallets
Pool Reset Every Monday
V Drip Integration V tokens locked in V Drip count toward user’s locking weight
Formula Weight = (V_Locked + V_Held_in_VDrip) × DurationBoost × AmountBoost × NFTBoost

 

Fee Conversion & Reward Pool Logic

 

All ecosystem fees collected from across the Vulcan ecosystem are automatically recycled into the reward system through buybacks and allocations:

 

Flow Allocation Purpose
60% Buy Back PYR

(Weekly Reward Pool)

Distributed to lockers automatically
20% Buy Back PYR (Treasury Reserve) Ecosystem development, liquidity, sustainability
20% Buy Back V Distributed as bonus to weekly leaderboard winners

 

This ensures every fee collected feeds directly back into the economy, creating a closed-loop model that strengthens both tokens while rewarding active users.

 

Unified Boost System

Your total reward multiplier is based on three factors — amount locked, lock duration, and Relic NFT ownership.

 

Amount Boost (Based on V Locked)

Tier V Range Approx. USD Value (@$50) Boost %
Tier 1 0.1 – 50 V $5 – $2,500 100 %

Tier 3 > 150 – 300 V $7,500 – $15,000 103 %
Tier 4 > 300 – 600 V $15,000 – $30,000 106 %
Tier 5 > 600 – 1,000 V $30,000 – $50,000 110 %
Tier 6 > 1,000 – 2,500 V $50,000 – $125,000 115 %
Tier 7 > 2,500 V $125,000+ 120 % (Max)

 

Duration Boost (Based on Lock Period)

Flame Relic 20,000 +7 %
Blaze Relic 5,000 +11 %
Infernal Relic 1,000 +16 %

Reward Cycle Summary

 

  • Fees are collected across the ecosystem.
  • 80% are converted into $PYR and 20% into $V via automated buybacks.

 

  • Of the $PYR portion:
    • 60% → distributed weekly to lockers
    • 20% → added to treasury for reserves and sustainability

 

  • User rewards are calculated as:
    • (V Locked + V in V Drip) × Duration Boost × Amount Boost × NFT Boost
  • Rewards are auto-distributed in $PYR weekly — no claiming needed.
  • The pool resets each Monday for the next cycle.

 

  • Total Combined Multiplier: 1.00× → 1.90×

Notes

Except for the flexible (24-hour) option, rewards stop after your chosen lock period ends — tokens must be re-locked to continue earning.

Boosts compound multiplicatively, so longer, higher-value locks with rare NFTs offer the greatest benefit.

The system is fully automatic — no claiming, no gas, no extra steps.
