Bribing did exist between [Votium](https://votium.app/) and [Convex](https://www.convexfinance.com/)

### [Convex](https://www.convexfinance.com/)

Rewarding CRV holders

### [Aura Finance](https://aura.finance/) run by Maki & stargate 

- Convex of Balancer
- Boost staking power
- 1 aura = 30 BAL tokens 

**Creates a marketplace for people to give and receive bribes** to deepen liquidity 

- Basically bribing BAL holders
- May be a more Votium esque platform 

### How to take & give out bribes (veBAL system)

- Hidden hand (redacted cartel)
- Once whitelisted
    - spin up a pool that allows Balancer emissions to be deposited through bribes into that pool
    - Chase the APY 
- Delegation works throught the Balancer.Finance interface 
    - No anticipated ROI 
- 2nd round will be figting for Balancer emissions for APY 
- Arbitrum Boosting emissions will be joining at the end of May.

### 

- users come and vote for your pool
- can be added to a specific cohort 
- snapshot is taken
- users receive emissions on a pro-rata basis (for their votes)
- The bribor adds bribe to gauge
    - person receiving the bribe can vote on the pool
    - or the bribee can vote lock tokens and 
    - 495k voting power
- Vote escrow balancer holder can come and access the bribe through the hidden hand
- Use a Votium esque platform (CVX is winning rn)
**Wallet is connected to hidden hand**
- hidden hand shows that wallet address is eligible so the with veBAL 

### Question is - 

**Options**

#1  Run our own Bribe campaign (anyone)
#2  Use a protocolized platform that can save us all of the time and energy for putting 

**tl;dr** 

How users can interact with the platform and collect their bribes

DAOhaus uses gnosis safe & adds a bribe to our gauge

Users go and vote on veBAL platform, once the user picks a bribe, they can claim at the end

**They will maintain logs on the voters who participate in our Gauge**

- Post a bribe, users can go and claim the bribe after the Epoch has ended 
- Anyone who votes on a gauge will be eligible to claim the bribe

**Hypothetical**

- Random veBAL user who votes on a bunch of stuff for months
- Been voting accidently - bribes are fairly distributed
- Delegation won't be live for a little bit
