Vote Delegation

Voting rights from held CVX tokens may be delegated to another address/entity. This function is ideal for those who hold CVX tokens but are unsure/uninterested in how they would vote on proposals or gauge weight votes. You can also delegate vote weight directly to the Convex Finance core team.

Delegating is a separate action from locking: you don't need to delegate if you lock, nor do you need to lock if you delegate. You delegate your voting power by delegating, and you increase your voting power by locking. If you delegate without locking, you delegate 0 voting power at the current time, but if you lock in the future, this voting power will be delegated automatically.

You can change or revoke delegation at any time.

Users can Delegate their CVX vote-weight on the Convex Finance website on the bottom-right area of the page:

  • Enter the Ethereum address you wish to delegate your vote-weight to in the form, and click "Delegate"

  • If you wish to delegate to the Convex team, click "Delegate to Convex team" instead
