Users can [lock](https://app.veplus.io/lock) VEP tokens at any time to receive veVEP. The lock period can be up to 2 years, following the linear relationship shown below:

* 100 VEP locked for 2 years will become 100 veVEP
* 100 VEP locked for 1 years will become 50 veVEP

The longer the vesting time, the higher the voting power and the more rewards!
