Using UMA
UMA Voting Walkthrough
Learn the core voter workflow: stake UMA, commit and reveal votes, monitor outcomes and manage accrued rewards.
Voting involves risk. Review current protocol parameters before staking or voting. Missed or incorrect participation can affect staked UMA.
Voting flow
- Connect a wallet in the voter interface.
- Stake UMA to become eligible to vote and accrue staking rewards.
- Commit a vote during the commit phase.
- Return during the reveal phase and reveal the committed vote.
- After resolution, review voting outcomes and available rewards.
Stake & unstake
Staking enables participation in DVM voting. Unstaking includes a cooldown period, so voters should understand liquidity constraints before staking.
Claim rewards
Accrued rewards can be managed through the voter interface. The exact reward rate is dynamic and should be read from the live dApp rather than treated as a fixed percentage.
