RewardsIn the platform, we introduced liquidity mining, meaning stakers can receive rewards in SNY tokens for creating liquidity in the platform by participating in the debt pool. To participate in liquidity mining go to the Rewards tab. The liquidity mining process is a cycle consisting of three phases:
- Subscription phase - in this phase you can receive pro rata shares for taking part in the debt pool by minting xUSD. Your reward will change during this phase proportionally to the size of your debt in comparison to whole debt pool.
- Staking phase - in this phase you enter with the number of points you had at the end of the previous phase and you can retain them by keeping your debt at the same level. The number of points will decrease when you Burn your xUSD.
- Claiming phase - in this phase you can claim your reward - an amount of SNY proportional pro rata shares you had at the end of the previous phase. If you don't claim your rewards before the end of the phase, your reward will be discarded.
Each phase lasts about a week. At any given time, there are three parallel rounds, each at a different phase. You can see them listed in the Rewards tab as follows:
- Subscription Round - shows the round that is currently in the Subscription phase
- Staking round - shows the round that is currently in the Staking phase
- Claiming round - shows the round that is currently in the Claiming phase
You can see number of SNY tokens you are going to be given for each round next to the round's name. You can check each round's time when you hover over the icon on the left from each phase's name. To claim your rewards from the finished round, click on the Claim button in the right bottom corner. You should see the amount of SNY you received in the top right corner of the section. To transfer this amount to your account click on the Withdraw button in the left right corner. At each step, you should approve the transaction in your wallet's extension. You should see that the number of SNY available in your account increased.
Method of calculating APY:
APR = weekly_reward_value/debt_pool_value*52
APY = (APR/52+1)^52-1
52 is number of weeks, cause APY is weekly
