Epoch definition: An epoch is a period of time that covers the rewards period.

Each TradeDividends staking epoch will be a 30 day period of time, not measured in calendar months, measured in days. Therefore an epoch can begin mid month.

Staking

How to Stake

Some important things to note:

• You are making onchain transactions, you will need some ETH on your wallet to be able to stake (approx $0.20 should be more than enough)

• You must stake for the entire 30 day epoch period to be eligible to claim rewards from that epoch.

• You can only stake (or add to your stake) once per epoch per wallet. If you want to stake multiple times in an epoch, you will need to use a separate wallet.

• If you remove any stake mid-epoch only those tokens staked for the entire period are used in rewards calculations.

• there is no fee (other than regular blockchain gas fees) for staking or unstaking

• unless you unstake, the amount staked rolls on to each epoch, no need to unstake and restake

• you rewards are not automatically compounded (restaked), if you wish to add these to your stake you will need to claim, convert to EAI on Uniswap (for USDC rewards) and then restake.

• If using CoinBase Wallet, Trust wallet or Metamask: make sure you are using the in app browser (looks like a wire globe), double check you are connected to Base Chain, Coinbase Wallet defaults to ETH chain.

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTE: During the Epoch 0 pre-rewards staking period, you will not be able to unstake your tokens until April 1st. After Epoch 1 has begun, you can unstake as per usual.

Claim Rewards

How to Claim Rewards

If you add to your existing stake then any rewards you are eligible to claim are claimed when you increase your stake. e.g you have 1000 EAI and 50 USDC rewards unclaimed, you add 100 EAI_Test to your existing stake , at the point you stake your 100 extra EAI_Test tokens, as well as the tdEAI_Test token receipt you will also receive your unclaimed rewards.

4. You will see the total amount of rewards available to claim as well as a table of all previous epochs and the rewards assigned (USDC and EAI).

   
5. Click Claim All button to claim all available rewards or select a USDC or EAI claim in the table below the Claim All button to make individual claims

6. A transaction is created to authorise your available rewards to be claimed.

Note: claimed rewards are NOT automatically restaked, therefore if you wish to restake them and increase your % of staking then you will need to follow the staking instructions to restake. You can only add to your stake ONE time per 30 day epoch period, if you wish to stake more than once in an epoch you will need to move tokens to a new wallet and stake from their.
