Bribes

Maximising Rewards Through External Incentives External incentives, commonly known as bribes, are additional rewards offered to $veTAPP voters to attract votes toward specific liquidity pools. While partner projects are the most common source of bribes, any user or protocol can create external incentives for pools on Tapp Exchange. This open system encourages competitive reward distribution and ensures that liquidity flows to where the ecosystem needs it most.

How Bribes Work Projects and protocols looking to bootstrap or deepen liquidity for their token pairs can deposit bribe rewards into specific pools. These incentives are distributed pro-rata to $veTAPP holders who vote on those pools during the epoch, on top of the trading fees voters already earn. The result is a marketplace where pools compete for votes by offering the most attractive total returns, combining organic fee generation with external incentive layers.

Claiming External Incentives When an epoch ends, all bribe rewards become instantly claimable. Visit the Rewards page within the Tapp app and claim your accumulated incentives alongside any trading fees earned from your votes during that epoch.
