The rewards that token holders receive are determined by a combination of factors, including the lock duration, the number of tokens staked, and the specific pool in which the tokens are staked. By offering these incentives, Yield Farming encourages token holders to lock their tokens for extended periods, which in turn helps maintain the ecosystem's stability and promote long-term growth. Additionally, Yield Farming is an attractive proposition for potential token holders, further bolstering the Illuvium game economy. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.illuvium.io/illuvium-whitepaper/tokenomics/yield-farming.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
