{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: Percentages do NOT represent USD values. Picking “80%/20%” does NOT mean you’ll be distributed $80 worth of gov tokens and $20 of stablecoins. If CRV+CVX rewards are one pie, and **crvUSD** rewards another pie, your reward preferences, alongside everybody else’s preferences, decide how big your slice of each pie is.
