Split Locks

Lock splitting enables you to divide a single lock into multiple separate locks (2, 3, 4, or 5 parts). This functionality is valuable for:

  • Distributing governance power across different strategies
  • Creating locks with varied durations for liquidity planning
  • Transferring partial governance power to other addresses
  • Diversifying your voting allocation

Split Process:

  1. Select “Split” from your lock’s manage menu split

  2. Choose how many parts to split into (2, 3, 4, or 5) split

  3. Define the split ratios:

  • Enter percentages for each new lock
  • The total MUST equal exactly 100%
  • A validation error appears if the sum is incorrect
  • The system auto-calculates token amounts based on percentages

  1. Review the split summary:
  • See each new lock’s percentage and token amount
  • Verify the total split equals your original lock
  • The selected lock ID is displayed for reference
  1. Pre-Split Actions (if applicable):
  • Claim Rebase: If unclaimed rewards exist, you’ll be prompted to claim them first
  • Vote Reset: If the lock has active votes, they’ll be reset to zero
  • Wallet transactions occur for both claim and split operations
  • Applicable network fees are shown for each step
  • After reset, emission rewards stop until you allocate votes again
  1. Confirm the split transaction

  2. New lock IDs are automatically generated:

  • Each receives its proportional share of tokens
  • All maintain the same unlock date as the original
  • Each can be managed independently going forward
  • All appear in your Lock module immediately

Split Example:

  • Original lock: 1,000 DXLYN, 400 veDXLYN
  • Split into 3 parts: 40%, 35%, 25%
  • Results:
  • Lock A: 400 DXLYN, 160 veDXLYN
  • Lock B: 350 DXLYN, 140 veDXLYN
  • Lock C: 250 DXLYN, 100 veDXLYN
