What is slot auction?
Slot auction, in short, stakes your DOT to vote for the projects that run for slots. If the project gains the slot successfully, your DOT will be locked for a fixed duration(6–24 months) and unlocked once expired. At the same time, you will get the vote token rewards for free. If not, your vote token will return back.
How do I participate in slot auctions through AEX?
AEX provides users with access to participate in the slot auction. Users vote for the project at AEX, then AEX votes on the chain on behalf of users. If the project gains a slot, AEX will receive the rewards and distribute them to users. If the project does not gain any slot at auction, AEX will retrieve assets from the chain for users.
