* Total Locked Supply: the total amount of $APX staked by users participating in DAO Governance.

* Total Power: the sum of the power of all users currently participating in DAO Governance.

**Staking Rewards**

Users can obtain veNFT by staking $APX in APX DAO. The power is a proof of the user’s governance vote as well as dividend weight. APX Finance will withdraw 50,000 $APX from income everyday to reward users.

&#x20;**Repurchase Rewards**&#x20;

APX Finance will set aside a portion of trading fee income every day, used to repurchase $APX from the secondary market from time to time. The repurchased $APX will be added into the DAO reward pool.
