Find your veV airdrop
Find your weekly veV airdrop, which appears under Claim veV staking airdrop. Every Monday, 2 million vPoints are shared among veV holders. The more $V you lock, and the longer you lock it, the bigger your share (Figure 4.5).

FAQs
What can I do with my vPoints?
vPoints work as $V options. During a season's exercise window, you can exercise them to mint $V at that season's strike price, paying in vSOL, at thevault.finance/exercise-tokens.
Can I lock vPoints?
No. vPoints can only be exercised to purchase $V. After exercising during the relevant window and paying the strike price, you can choose to lock the $V you purchased. The points themselves are not lockable.
Can I exchange vPoints for $V outside the exercise window?
No. vPoints can only be exercised during a season's exercise window. Each season page, such as Points Program Season 5, lists its window and strike price, and the options calendar is posted in The Vault Discord.
Can I still use vPoints from earlier seasons?
From season 3 onward, yes: those points use the same token, so unused points carry over to later exercise windows. Season 1 and season 2 points have expired and can no longer be exercised.
