Other Details

HT Lock and Mining Option Period: User can opt to lock HT under flexible extraction, 7 days, 30 days, 60 days and 90 days. The smallest lock quantity is 100HT.

Benefits of Locking HT: HPT & DPOS Double Rewards

HPT Rewards: Users who lock tokens receive daily HPT airdrops. Specific airdrop quantity will depend on lock option period selected, quantity locked and HTX Pool’ s mining hash power and daily float.

DPOS Rewards: All HTX users with more than 1,000HPT holdings in their HBG account will receive DPOS mining rewards. Currently, token airdrop received under DPOS mining include EOS, TRX, CMT, ONG, IOST, ATOM, IRIS, LAMB。

Airdrop Schedule: If user locks HT on T-date (same day), airdrop computation will commence on T+1 (next day), and actual airdrop will be effected on T+2 (day after).

For example: If Peter locks 1,000HT on 27th July, the system will only incorporate his HT in the total HT locked on 28th July onwards and he will only receive 28th July HPT airdrop rewards on 29th July in his account balance. Correspondingly, he will receive 29th July HPT airdrop rewards in his account on 30th July.  

Impact of Early Redemption:

Whilst early redemption of locked tokens is supported, a penalty fee will be charged.

Penalty fee calculation formula: (remaining no. of days/365)*20%*lock amount

Token extraction for all lock period options will not exceed 24hrs (subsequent functionality will support real-time extraction).

For example: If Peter initially locked 1,000HT for 30days, and decides to redeem 15 days before term expiration, he will need to pay (15/365)*20%*1000 = 8.219178HT. This works out to an actual withdrawal of HT = 1000-8.219178 = 991.7808HT.

 

Impact on Prime FastTrack: Locked HT will count towards the computation of Prime, FastTrack HT Holding snapshots, but cannot be used for HT voting or order placement.

Example in Prime: If Sally holds 6.000HT (of which 4,000HT is locked), on the day of Prime launch, the total HT holding computed is 5,000HT and she will receive the corresponding trading quota.

Example in FastTrack: If Peter holds 6.000HT (of which 4,000HT is locked), on the day of FastTrack voting, his FastTrack Eligibility page will show 5,000HT. On the voting page, the available number of votes is 2,000HT. Peter will need to successfully withdraw 3,000HT to his exchange account at least 1 day before FastTrack voting begins in order for his FastTrack voting page to reflect 5,000HT available votes.

 

Impact on HT Trading Fee Deduction: Locked HT will count towards the computation of Tiered Fee HT Holding snapshots, but cannot be used for actual trading fee deductions.

For example: If Sally’s trading fee rate is at Level 5, upon locking all her HT holdings, her exchange account will reflect 0 HT balance. She will still need some HT in her exchange account balance to support HT trading fee deductions should she trade.
