Community staking rewards

Community staking rewards give holders a reason to keep your token: they stake it in a pool on the token page and earn more of it over time. It costs $10 on top of the launch fee and is optional.

Settings

In Advanced Launch:

• Allocation: 1 to 25% of the supply goes into the pool as rewards.
• Reward period: 1 to 24 months. Rewards are paid out continuously over this time, then the pool stops paying.
• Reward curve: linear pays the same rate for the whole period; front-loaded pays more at the start and less later, which rewards the people who stake early.
• Withdraw lock (optional): stakers have to wait up to 7 days after staking before they can withdraw. It keeps tokens staked for longer, which helps steady the price.
• Staking during presale (fixed and stepped presales): buyers can stake the tokens they bought before the presale even ends.

Quick Launch keeps it simple: pick an allocation of 0 to 20% of the supply, paid out linearly over 12 months.

What holders see

The token page has a staking widget showing the estimated APY, the remaining reward period and rewards, and their own staked balance and unclaimed rewards. They stake, claim rewards and withdraw from there. If a withdraw lock is set, the widget tells them when their stake unlocks.

Rewards are shared in proportion to stake: if you hold half of everything staked, you earn half of what the pool pays out.

Things to keep in mind

• The allocation comes out of the supply before the presale allocation is calculated, together with any creator allocation.
• The reward rate depends on how many tokens are staked. Fewer stakers means a higher APY for each of them.
• Once the reward period ends, the pool stops accepting new stakes. Existing stakers can still withdraw and claim what they earned.
