- Convex Finance, a platform built to boost rewards for CRV stakers and liquidity providers alike, all in a simple and easy to use interface.
- Liquidity providers earn trading fees and claim boosted CRV without locking CRV themselves.

- Deposit Curve LP tokens to the Convex system; they are automatically staked in the curve gauge with boosted reward rates.
- Gain CRV rewards, as well as extra incentive tokens (ex. SNX, PNT, BOR, LDO, etc)
- Rewards are periodically claimed from the gauge and moved to a synthetix inspired reward contract, with rewards tail emission of seven days.
- Receive the Convex platform’s native token(CVX) pro rata for each CRV you receive.
- Add or remove liquidity at any time with no deposit or withdrawal fees.

- Deposit CRV in the platform. This CRV is locked forever. Receive cvxCRV token.
- Deposit cvxCRV in the reward contract. (can be withdrawn at anytime)
