Vaults

A Vault is a community campaign: the platform announces a collective volume target and a prize pool, and every eligible trade on onchain.cc pushes the community toward it. Hit the target together, unlock the rewards together.

How a Vault Campaign Works

1. The vault opens — a volume goal, a prize, and a deadline are announced on the Colosseum dashboard and in Discord.
2. Everyone trades — qualifying trades during the vault window count automatically. No opt-in, nothing to click. (Campaigns can set a minimum trade size for a trade to count — the vault card states it.)
3. Progress is live — a progress bar tracks community volume against the target in real time. Some campaigns unlock rewards in stages as milestones fill, with the full prize at the top.
4. The vault unlocks — hitting the target locks in the reward. Once a milestone is announced, it can’t un-fire.

How Rewards Are Distributed

What a vault unlocks depends on the campaign. Some vaults unlock a prize distributed to contributors; others fill a downstream pool — for example, the campaign that maxed Season 2’s 300,000 USDC prize pool, which then pays out through the season’s own competitions. Every vault’s card states its own payout rules — read it when the campaign opens.

Warning

Only volume during the active vault window counts — trades before it opens or after it closes don’t contribute. Check the vault card for the campaign’s own rules: the window, any minimum trade size, and how its rewards pay out.
