Staking
Staking in xApp is the voluntary locking of LP tokens (lpXFI
, lpUSD
) in the rewards contract. While your LP tokens remain in the pool earning swap fees, the contract distributes additional rewards and accumulates Bonus Points to boost your share.
CrossFi xApp Staking - Lock LP tokens to earn additional rewards
- π° Passive Income
- π Asset Security
- π Compounding Returns
Snowball effect: the longer you stay staked, the more BP you earn and the larger your share of WETH & XFI/esXFI distributions.
Your LP tokens remain in the liquidity pool earning trading fees while simultaneously generating staking rewards through our secure smart contracts.
Reinvest earned rewards back into liquidity provision to create a powerful compounding effect that grows your position over time.
Staking Rewards by Poolβ
LP Token | Rewards | Details |
---|---|---|
lpXFI | esXFI + WETH + BP | Main XFI/xUSD pool with maximum trading volume |
lpUSD | XFI + BP | Stable USDC/xUSD pool for conservative strategies |
- esXFI β escrowed XFI that vests linearly over time
- WETH β ETH from LayerZero bridge and trading fees
- XFI β direct liquid XFI for lpUSD stakers
- BP β Bonus Points that permanently boost your reward share
How Your Share Is Calculatedβ
Your reward share depends on your Position Weight relative to all other participants:
Where:
- LPβα΅’β = your staked LP tokens
- BPβα΅’β = your accumulated Bonus Points
- STβα΅’β = your current esXFI balance (also counts as weight)
- Partial unstake: reduces LPβα΅’β, preserves remaining BPβα΅’β
- Full unstake: resets BPβα΅’β to zero immediately
Understanding esXFI Mechanicsβ
Earning & Vesting Processβ
- Earning: Each distribution allocates your share of new XFI as esXFI (for
lpXFI
) - Vesting: esXFI matures linearly over ~6 months protocol vesting period
- Rate Control: Unstaked LP slows vesting; re-staking accelerates it
Bonus Points (BP) Systemβ
Continuous Accumulation
- Earn +1 BP for every ~0.01 LP per day
- ~100 BP β 1 LP staked for full year (100% APR boost)
- BP permanently increase your share of all future distributions
BP Management
- Partial unstake: BP decrease proportionally to withdrawn share
- Full unstake: All BP reset to 0 immediately
- Transfer: BP are non-transferable and bound to your staking position
Step-by-Step Staking Guideβ
Check LP Balance
Ensure you have LP tokens available. If needed, acquire them in LP Tokens β Get LP section first.
You can unstake anytime:
- Partial: Preserves remaining BP and continues earning on remaining stake
- Full: Resets BP to 0 and stops new esXFI vesting
Real-World Examplesβ
Example 1: Compounding Strategyβ
- Initial Stake: 1,000 lpXFI
- After 1 Month: Earn 0.6 WETH + esXFI
- Reinvestment: Swap WETH β XFI + xUSD β Add Liquidity β ~30 new lpXFI
- Compound Effect: Stake new LP β higher weight β more BP β increased future rewards
Example 2: Long-Term Hold (lpUSD)β
- Stake: 500 lpUSD for 365 days
- Accumulation: Earn ~500 BP + steady XFI rewards
- Total Weight: 500 LP + 500 BP = 1,000
- Share: If total pool weight = 10,000, you get 10% of every XFI distribution
Optimal Strategiesβ
Goal | Recommended Action |
---|---|
Maximize APY | Stay staked β₯ 90-180 days; reinvest WETH/XFI weekly |
Minimize Volatility | Choose lpUSD (stablecoin pool) for XFI rewards |
Balance Risk & Yield | Split holdings between lpXFI and lpUSD pools |
Frequently Asked Questionsβ
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Do BP ever expire? | No β as long as you don't fully unstake, BP stay active and continue boosting your share indefinitely. |
Can I stake multiple LP pools simultaneously? | Yes β each pool's rewards accumulate separately and sum together for maximum earning potential. |
Does esXFI disappear if I unstake LP? | No β already-earned esXFI remains and continues vesting (just at a slower rate without active staking). |
Where do I track unlocked XFI? | Check Escrow β Vesting Status or view your esXFI balance in the Rewards page for complete tracking. |
