Epochs
An overview of the epoch system

All rewards and staking contracts operate on 28 days cycles, referred to as
epochs. A new epoch automatically begins when the current epoch ends.
The following will occur at the end of each epoch:
 * Trading Rewards are distributed. Rewards are claimable at dydx.community
   approximately 7 days after the end of the epoch.
 * Liquidity Provider Rewards are distributed. Rewards are claimable at
   dydx.community approximately 7 days after the end of the epoch.
 * Requested withdrawals for the Liquidity Staking Pool in the ended epoch may
   be withdrawn.
 * Requested withdrawals for the Safety Staking Pool in the ended epoch may be
   withdrawn.

The following will occur only at the end of Epoch 0:
 * Retroactive Mining Rewards will be distributed. Rewards are claimable at
   dydx.community approximately 8 days after the end of Epoch 0.
 * Transfers of DYDX are initially restricted. The Initial Transfer Restriction
   period will be lifted approximately 8 days after the end of Epoch 0.
 * DYDX will become transferable on September 8th, 2021 at 15:00:00 UTC.

Epoch 0 will go live on August 3rd, 2021 at 15:00:00 UTC. The following table
outlines epoch start and end dates (which can be modified by dYdX governance):

The dYdX Foundation has created a public Google Calendar with start / end dates
for Epochs and Blackout Windows - you can subscribe here.
WHEN WILL THE REWARDS AND STAKING POOLS BE ACTIVATED?

 * The Retroactive Mining Rewards are now live on the Protocol. These rewards
   will run until August 31th, 2021, 15:00:00 UTC.
 * The Trading Rewards are now live on the Protocol. These rewards will run
   until August 3rd, 2026, 15:00:00 UTC.
 * The Liquidity Provider Rewards is now live on the Protocol. These rewards
   will run until August 3rd, 2026, 15:00:00 UTC.
 * The Liquidity Staking pool is now live on the Protocol. This pool will run
   until August 2nd, 2026, at approximately 15:00:00 UTC (exact timestamp:
   1785682798).
 * The Safety Staking pool will automatically go live on the Protocol a few days
   after the end of epoch 0 when transfer restrictions are lifted. This pool
   will run until September 7th, 2026, at approximately 15:00:00 UTC (exact
   timestamp: 1788793198).

CAN DYDX GOVERNANCE MODIFY THE EPOCH SCHEDULE?

The initial epoch length is 28 days. dYdX governance can vote to modify epoch
lengths, within the specified bounds. The minimum and maximum epoch lengths are
6 days and 92 days, respectively.
WHAT IS THE BLACKOUT WINDOW?

For the Liquidity Staking Pool and the Safety Staking Pool, an epoch schedule is
enforced for withdrawals in order to provide predictability and a regular
cadence for the availability of funds in the pool. A staker must request to
unstake funds before the blackout window in order to be able to withdraw the
staker's funds after the end of that epoch. If a staker does not request to
withdraw, then the staker's staked funds are rolled over into the next epoch.
The recommended blackout window for each of the Liquidity Staking Pool and the
Safety Pool is 14 days. dYdX governance can vote to modify the blackout window,
within the specified bounds. The minimum and maximum blackout windows are 3 days
and 46 days, respectively.
WHEN CAN I WITHDRAW AND TRANSFER MY EARNED DYDX REWARDS?

Earned DYDX tokens via the Retroactive Mining Rewards, Trading Rewards, and
Liquidity Provider Rewards are transferable at the end of each epoch. DYDX
holders are required to wait approximately 7 days (Waiting Period) after the end
of the epoch to claim their tokens. Once tokens have been claimed, they can be
transferred or delegated to dYdX governance.
Earned DYDX tokens via the Liquidity Staking pool and the Safety Staking pool
are claimable every block and can be withdrawn at any time during a given epoch.
On September 8th, 2021 at 15:00:00 UTC, 8 days after the end of Epoch 0, the
initial transfer restrictions will be automatically lifted, at which point
approximately 8.11% of the DYDX supply will become liquid.
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THE WAITING PERIOD? HOW ARE REWARDS STORED AT THE END OF
EVERY EPOCH?

Retroactive Mining Rewards, Trading Rewards, and Liquidity Provider Rewards are
stored in a Merkle tree, which contains the cumulative rewards earned by each
user since the start of the distribution program.
At the end of each epoch, the Merkle root is updated via the ChainLink oracle
system on the MerkleDistributorV1 smart contract to reflect rewards earned in
the last epoch. An update is performed by setting the proposed Merkle root to
the latest value returned by the oracle contract. The proposed Merkle root can
be made active after a Waiting Period of 7 days has elapsed. During the waiting
period, dYdX governance has the opportunity to freeze the Merkle root, in case
the proposed root is incorrect or malicious. If the Merkle root is not frozen,
the new Merkle root is activated and users can claim their rewards from the past
epoch.
Each time the epoch changes, the following occurs in order:
 * When an epoch ends, rewards data is calculated for all user activity from the
   last epoch.
 * This data is added to a data structure on IPFS, stored under a fixed IPNS
   name.
 * The ChainLink oracle system, also noticing the change in epoch, queries the
   latest rewards data using the known IPNS name.
 * Each oracle signer uses this rewards data to calculate newly earned rewards
   for each user.
 * Each oracle signer computes the new cumulative Merkle tree and Merkle root.
 * Each oracle signer writes the Merkle tree data to IPFS, receiving an IPFS
   CID. (They should have calculated the same tree and should therefore receive
   the same CID.)
 * If the oracle signers agree on the same values, then the RewardsOracle is
   updated with the new Merkle root, IPFS CID, and epoch number.
 * An oracle signer (or a third party) calls the public function
   MerkleDistributorV1.proposeRoot() to set the proposed Merkle root to the new
   oracle value.
 * A waiting period takes place, during which governance can call
   MerkleDistributorV1.pauseRootUpdates() to prevent the proposed Merkle root
   from taking effect.
 * After the waiting period, an oracle signer (or a third party) calls the
   public function MerkleDistributorV1.updateRoot() causing the proposed Merkle
   root to become active.
 * Once the new Merkle root is active, users are able to claim rewards from the
   last epoch.
