Time-locked GRO, known as veGRO, is now live on Fantom!

We’re delighted to finally launch veGRO Diamonds on Fantom Opera (FTM), offering our community a further opportunity to secure strong and sustainable revenues with GRO.

veGRO Benefits on Fantom

On Fantom user rewards will be paid in cLQDR. Additional rewards will also be paid in MOR, subject to protocol performance. veGRO holders will also earn higher APYs for MOR staking (our overcollateralized stablecoin) when it is live on Fantom in the next week or so.

Using the veToken model made popular by Curve Finance’s veCRV, veGRO Diamonds are ‘time locked govGRO’ that boost holder rewards the longer it is locked.

veGRO is already live on BSC and Avalanche, and we produced a step-by-step user guide for veGRO in a previous Medium article that also answers some FAQs. This can be viewed here:

There is an updated User Interface this time around through, so please have a read of the following step-by-step guide for veGRO Diamonds on Fantom.

The following is a step-by-step user guide to explain how to secure your veGRO Diamonds on Fantom.

  • Click on ‘VeGRO Diamonds’ on the main MOR menu.
  • Then scroll down and click on Approve GRO and process the transaction.
  • Then you must swap GRO to govGRO.

The swap rate is 1:1 in either direction (GRO to govGRO or govGRO to GRO) and there are no additional fees. Click on the arrows in the middle of you’d like to swap the other direction.

Step 2: Lock your govGRO to generate veGRO

  • Then click the approval and Lock button.
