fn vested_transfer( source: &AccountId, target: &AccountId, locked: <Self::Currency as Currency<AccountId>>::Balance, per_block: <Self::Currency as Currency<AccountId>>::Balance, starting_block: Self::Moment, ) -> Result<(), DispatchError>
Execute a vested transfer from source
to target
with the given schedule:
- locked
: The amount to be transferred and for the vesting schedule to apply to.
- per_block
: The amount to be unlocked each block. (linear vesting)
- starting_block
: The block where the vesting should start. This block can be in the past
or future, and should adjust when the tokens become available to the user.
Example: Assume we are on block 100. If locked
amount is 100, and per_block
is 1:
- If starting_block
is 0, then the whole 100 tokens will be available right away as the
vesting schedule started in the past and has fully completed.
- If starting_block
is 50, then 50 tokens are made available right away, and 50 more
tokens will unlock one token at a time until block 150.
- If starting_block
is 100, then each block, 1 token will be unlocked until the whole
balance is unlocked at block 200.
- If starting_block
is 200, then the 100 token balance will be completely locked until
block 200, and then start to unlock one token at a time until block 300.
