What is Staking? Staking involves depositing (locking) your cryptocurrency tokens, such as $KAYEN, into a protocol or smart contract to:
Support network operations (e.g. validation or governance).
Earn staking rewards in return for your contribution.
KAYEN LP Staking (Stake LP Tokens, Earn Rewards) By depositing LP tokens into the Kayen LP Staking pools, users can earn $KAYEN (2) + $xKAYEN (8) tokens as rewards. LP tokens can be created on the Kayen DEX by providing liquidity for the following pairs:
KAYEN/CHZ
KAYEN/USDT
Two dedicated staking pools are available, one for each pair, providing users with options based on their liquidity contributions.
(Total reward: 15% of Kayen's total supply will be linearly distributed as LP staking rewards over 3 years.) Yield Staking (Protocol Fee Rewards) Yield Staking allows users to earn rewards from the protocol's fees by staking their $xKAYEN (KAYEN Escrowed) tokens. Kayen is community-driven and decentralized protocol in which the fees generated from protocol's features are distributed proportionally to the amount of $xKAYEN staked.
How It Works: Kayen protocol allocates a portion of its fees to the staking pool. Users who have staked $xKAYEN can claim rewards based on their ownership ratio in the pool. To access advanced Yield Staking features, users must convert their $KAYEN tokens to $xKAYEN.
Reward Type: Rewards may be distributed in CHZ or any token chosen by the Kayen team, depending on the protocol's decision.
Profit Allocation: A total of x% of Kayen DEX profits is allocated for Yield Staking rewards and managed by the protocol's treasury.
Deallocation Fee: When exiting Yield Staking, a 0.5% deallocation fee is applied. This fee is permanently burned, contributing to a deflationary mechanism that reduces $KAYEN supply over time.
Yield Booster The Yield Booster is a specialized feature that enhances rewards for LP Staking and future Liquid Staking activities. By staking $xKAYEN, users can unlock additional rewards:
Maximum Boost: Up to 250%
