# Reward Pool & Season TVL

> How the VISION Reward Pool is sized: 1% to 10% of total OVER supply, set by discrete Season Average TVL milestones measured as a time-weighted average.

VISION’s **Reward Pool** is the amount of OVER allocated to the Farming Season. It ranges from **1% to 10% of the total OVER supply**, depending on the protocol’s **Season Average TVL**.

The pool rewards sustained participation: its size depends on the outstanding Overlaid Asset supply throughout the season, not the TVL reached on a single day.

## What Season Average TVL measures

**Season Average TVL is the time-weighted average of the global outstanding Overlaid Asset supply over the full season.** Each Overlaid Asset is counted nominally as **$1** for this calculation.

This is a protocol-wide supply measure across supported chains, not just the assets deposited in Farming. The nominal dollar value is an accounting convention for the season, rather than a measurement of each token’s market price.

Two factors therefore matter: **how much supply is outstanding and how long it remains outstanding during the season**.

## Reward pool milestones

The final Season Average TVL determines which allocation applies. The token amounts below use OVER’s fixed maximum supply of **1 billion tokens**.

| Final Season Average TVL | Share of total OVER supply | Reward Pool |
|---|---:|---:|
| Below $50 million | 1% | 10 million OVER |
| $50 million to below $100 million | 2% | 20 million OVER |
| $100 million to below $200 million | 4% | 40 million OVER |
| $200 million to below $300 million | 6% | 60 million OVER |
| $300 million to below $500 million | 8% | 80 million OVER |
| $500 million or more | 10% | 100 million OVER |

:::info
**Milestones are discrete: there is no interpolation between them.** For example, a final Season Average TVL of $75 million activates the 2% allocation, not a percentage between 2% and 4%.
:::

## How the average is calculated

Each period contributes according to the global TVL maintained during that period and its duration. Those contributions are added together and divided by the **full season duration**.

For periods with a constant TVL, the calculation can be written as:

**Season Average TVL = sum of (global TVL × time at that level) ÷ full season duration**

The same principle applies when supply changes more frequently: each level contributes for the time it remains in effect.

### Worked example

Assume a **180-day season** for illustration:

| Period | Global TVL | Duration | Contribution to the final average |
|---|---:|---:|---:|
| First half | $100 million | 90 days | $100M × 90 ÷ 180 = $50M |
| Second half | $200 million | 90 days | $200M × 90 ÷ 180 = $100M |
| **Full season** | — | **180 days** | **$150 million** |

The final Season Average TVL is **$150 million**, activating a **40 million OVER Reward Pool**.

Although TVL ends at $200 million, it was not at that level for the entire season. The ending balance does not replace the time-weighted average.

## Reading the value during the season

During VISION, the displayed Season Average TVL represents **the contribution to the final average already accumulated**. The calculation uses supply history from the start of the season up to the current moment, but still divides by the **entire season duration**.

:::note
**The denominator is not the time elapsed so far.** The displayed value is therefore neither a rolling average nor a projection of future participation.
:::

For example, if global TVL stays at **$100 million for the first 30 days** of an illustrative 180-day season:

**Accumulated contribution = $100 million × 30 ÷ 180 = approximately $16.67 million**

At that point, current TVL is $100 million, but the contribution already accumulated toward the final average is approximately $16.67 million. More contribution accumulates as supply remains outstanding.

When capital exits, it stops contributing from that point onward. **Its contribution from earlier periods remains included**; leaving does not erase the time it already spent in the protocol.

## From the pool to your allocation

Season Average TVL determines **how much OVER is available for the season**, not how much an individual participant receives.

Of the final Reward Pool, **95% is allocated proportionally to participants’ Total Scores**, and **5% is reserved for individual and team leaderboard prizes**. Your Final Allocation combines your score-based share with any applicable prizes.
