Increase Lock Amount
Increasing your lock allows you to add more DXLYN tokens to an existing lock without altering its duration. This is perfect when:
- You’ve acquired more DXLYN and want to increase voting power
- You want to boost your rewards without extending time commitment
- You’re satisfied with current duration but want more influence
Increase Process:
-
Select “Increase” from your lock management menu

-
Your wallet’s DXLYN balance displays prominently for reference

-
Specify the amount to add:
- Manual Entry: Type the exact amount
- Quick Select: Choose 25%, 50%, or MAX of available balance
- The interface shows the calculated token amount for each percentage
- Review the increase summary:
- Additional DXLYN being added
- Current lock amount + increase = new total
- Projected veDXLYN after the addition
- Unchanged unlock date
- Confirm the wallet transaction:
- Transaction displays added token amount and fees
- Upon confirmation, tokens are immediately added to the lock
- veDXLYN recalculates based on new token amount and remaining duration
Increase Example:
- Current lock: 500 DXLYN with 1 year remaining (125 veDXLYN)
- Increase by: 500 DXLYN
- New state: 1,000 DXLYN with 1 year remaining (250 veDXLYN)
- veDXLYN doubled by doubling the locked amount
Key Difference: Extend vs. Increase:
- Extend: Adds time → increases veDXLYN without locking more tokens
- Increase: Adds tokens → increases veDXLYN without extending time
- Both strategies boost your governance power in different ways
