## What is auto vault emissions? <a href="#id-2519" id="id-2519"></a>

* Auto vault emissions aims to provide additional long term incentives to our community while also reducing opportunistic yield farming&#x20;
* The function allows users to quickly lock up their TONIC rewards into a vault of their choice
* Previously, users needed to 1) claim TONIC, and 2) stake TONIC for xTONIC before locking it into a vault. Now, users can skip steps 1 and 2
* Do note that, going forward, 60% of all TONIC rewards will be automatically locked into a vault. The remaining 40% can be claimed immediately
