Gauge Weights
Simply put, a gauge weight translates into how much of the daily THRUST inflation it receives.
For a Gauge to receive THRUST emissions it must be added to the GaugeController. The Council must vote and approve each new gauge added.
Each Gauge added to the GaugeController has a weight and a type. The weights represent how much of the daily will be received by the rewards gauge.
Because those weights decide where the THRUST inflation goes, it allows the DAO to control where most of the liquidity should go and balance liquidity. It's a powerful tool for voters that must be used responsibly.
The gauge weight is updated once a week on Thursdays.
When are the weights and rewards updated?
Weights and rewards are updated every Thursday 00:00 UTC.
