Stake SHDW, earn SHDW

ShadowSwap staking pools comes with two staking options: flexible staking or fixed-term staking.

Whatโ€™s the difference between โ€œFlexibleโ€ and โ€œFixed-Termโ€ staking?

With both, you can simply stake your SHDW tokens to earn more SHDW tokens with no deposit fees. Flexible staking allows users to stake SHDW and earn rewards with the ability to unstake whenever they please. Fixed-term staking allows users to maximise their yield and earn even more SHDW by locking their staked SHDW for a period of time they choose, earning a linearly boosted yield compared to flexible staking.Flexible staking and fixed-term staking are both part of the same pool to allow users easy migration between the two staking options. However, when you do fixed-term staking, there is an option to perform flexible SHDW staking on the side.

Flexible Staking

Stake your SHDW and forget about it! SHDW rewards will be automatically distributed and included in your staking balance, minus a small fee. If you have SHDW staked in flexible staking

  • โœ… Add more SHDW to flexible staking

  • โœ… Harvest rewards any time

  • โœ… Withdraw any time (fees apply for the first 72 hours, see below)

  • โœ… Convert all staked SHDW in flexible to fixed-term staking

  • โŒ Add SHDW to fixed-term staking if you have any SHDW in flexible staking

  • โŒ Convert part of the staked SHDW in flexible to fixed-term staking

Unstaking fee

  • 0.1%โ€จ if you unstake (withdraw) within 72 hours.

  • Only applies within 3 days of manually staking.

  • After 3 days, you can unstake with no fee.

  • The 3-day timer resets every time you manually stake more SHDW in the pool.

  • This fee only applies to manual unstaking: it does not apply to automatic compounding.

Performance fee

  • 2%, subtracted automatically from each yield harvest.

  • For example, if the harvest were 1 SHDW, then 0.02 SHDW would be subtracted as the performance fee.

The SHDW collected via the unstaking fee and performance fee will be burned every week .This is a good thing for SHDW holders because it reduces the overall amount of SHDW tokens in existence.

Fixed-Term Staking

Stake your SHDW for a fixed amount of time to maximize yields and receive additional benefits! SHDW rewards will be locked along with the staked SHDW until the staking duration ends.

  • No performance fees

  • The longer you lock, the higher the boost applied to the yield! Always offering a higher yield compared to flexible staking!

  • SHDW rewards will unlock, along with your staked SHDW, when your lock duration expires

  • Once staked in fixed-term staking, you cannot withdraw until the end of your lock duration.

  • โœ… Perform flexible staking on the side

  • โŒ Harvest rewards

  • โŒ Withdraw before the lock ends
