# What happens to vested tokens after they are unlocked?

The same thing as any other token. They continue to count towards liquidity mining with a token weight of 2. And as with any other tokens, if you withdraw them then that weighting is lost. That means when you decide to stake them again you will have to stake them for 12 months in order to receive the weighting of 2.
