Reward Distribution Formula
In each epoch, traders’ rewards will be calculated as follows:
where R
is the total rewards pool allocated for the epoch in $ZEX, and r
refers to the rewards allocated to a specific trader.
Traders will not be able to see their rewards before an epoch concludes. As rewards are in the form of $ZEX tokens, traders will be able to claim them in full, once it is available for claiming.
Rewards are calculated once the epoch ends. After which, a small window of time (1-2 days) may be required to finalize the rewards, before it becomes available for claiming.
