Welcome to the all-inclusive Fan Token staking terminology guide.
Here you’ll find all the key terms relating to Fan Token staking, together with simple explanations for each.
Let’s get started!
Fan Token Staking
This is the catch-all term used to describe the process of staking your Fan Tokens on Socios.com in order to earn daily Reward Points. It’s the most effective and simple way to earn Reward Points on Socios.com, that can be used to claim extraordinary rewards and experiences.
Stake
This effectively means locking your Fan Tokens in exchange for daily Reward Points. Staking is now a prerequisite to take part in polls on Socios.com and typeform quizzes. When you stake your Fan Tokens they will become non-tradable.
Unstake
This is the action of unlocking your staked Fan Tokens. As soon as you unstake your Fan Tokens you’ll stop earning daily reward points for staking. Once you have unstaked your Fan Tokens you will enter a 7-day cool down period at the end of which you can claim your Fan Tokens back.
Cool-down period.
This is a seven-day period which begins the moment you unstake your Fan Tokens. Your Fan Tokens remain in non-tradable state during this period.
Claim back
This is when you can reclaim your Fan Tokens at the end of the seven-day cool down period and use them in the market.
Reward Points Pool
This is the total amount of Reward Points available to be distributed proportionately among all users who have staked that Fan Token.
Reward Points Available
This is the total amount of Reward Points available daily for each partner, which can be influenced by market factors.
Estimated Daily Earnings
This is the amount of Reward Points, rounded to the nearest whole number, that you can expect to receive from the pool in one day.
Reward Points Formula
This is the formula through which daily earnings are calculated which is:
[FTs locked by a user x Reward Points Pool]/ tot number of FTs locked by all users
Overall Fan Tokens staked
This is the total number of Fan Tokens staked at the given time.
Network Fee
Also known as ‘Gas Fees’, these are non-refundable charges required for processing blockchain transactions. These estimated fees cover validation costs and may vary based on network congestion and transaction complexity.
