I can't find the Pool I was staking in!
You should be able to find the Pool under the "Finished" tab on the Pools page.
By selecting "Staked Only", it will make it easier to find your assets.
If you are unable to unstake from the Stake AMPLE, Earn AMPLE pools, please check to make sure that you haven’t sold the tokens in your wallet. This token acts as a `proof of ownership` over your AMPLE in the Manual AMPLE pool.
Don’t worry! They’re in your wallet already.
Whenever you stake or unstake from a Pool or farm, your earned tokens get harvested and sent to your wallet at the same time.
How is APR for Pools calculated?
Pool APR = Annualized rewards (USD) / User funds staked in Pool (USD) * 100
As a basic example, let's take a 60-day pool with 300,000 USD worth of rewards, and 3,000,000 USD worth of AMPLE staked in it.
The APR fluctuates as more AMPLE is staked by users, and as the price of AMPLE, and the reward token, vary.
Calculation | Amount | |
---|---|---|
Total rewards to distribute (USD value) | 300,000 USD | |
Distribution period | 60 days | |
Daily distribution | 300,000 / 60 = | 5,000 USD daily |
Annualised rewards (USD value) | 5,000 * 365 = | 1,825,000 USD |
Value of AMPLE staked by users in pool (USD value) | 3,000,000 USD | |
APR | (1,825,000 / 3,000,000) * 100 = | 60.833% APR |
This shows the amount of blocks left until the rewards for that pool stop being distributed. Once the pool has reached that block, you should unstake your tokens, because you won’t be receiving any rewards after that.
There are three main types of Pools.
The rewards for the "Stake AMPLE, earn AMPLE" Pools come from the AMPLE emissions. Each block, a number of AMPLE tokens are allocated as rewards for these pools.
The rewards for the "Stake AMPLE, earn other tokens" type are provided by the project teams who sponsor a Pool.
For the "Stake other tokens, earn AMPLE" type, the AmpleSwap treasury buys back AMPLE from the market to distribute as rewards. These pools are funded by AmpleSwap, not by the projects themselves.
AmpleSwap’s Pool Token is deposited in your wallet when you interact with the Manual “Stake AMPLE, Earn AMPLE” Pool. It's not staked for
It’s basically an IOU that shows how much AMPLE you’ve staked in the pool.
It’ll be returned automatically when you unstake your AMPLE from that pool.
Don’t sell your POOL tokens! You need to return your POOL to unstake your AMPLE from the Manual AMPLE pool. The amount of POOL you return must be the same as the amount of AMPLE you unstake.
