  • Three-Month Staking: A medium-term commitment, locking tokens for three months.
  • Six-Month Staking: The longest fixed-term option, with tokens locked for six months.

The rewards for staking LFT Tokens are calculated based on the duration of staking and the type of staking chosen:

  • Three-Month Staking: Provides a 20% annualized yield. Earnings accrue daily, with the first addition to the account occurring 24 hours after the start of staking.
  • Six-Month Staking: Comes with a 30% annualized yield. Daily earnings, following this yield rate, are credited to the account starting 24 hours post
  • Flexible Staking: This option offers a standard annualized yield of 8%. Since there is no fixed lock-in period, the rewards are more conservative. Earnings are calculated daily, similar to the fixed-term options, and are added to the user’s account on a daily basis, starting 24 hours after the staking process is
  • In all scenarios, the daily earnings are a pro-rata calculation of the respective annualized yield, based on the amount staked.

Early Unstaking Procedure

**”While Lifti encourages stakeholders to complete their chosen staking period, early unstaking is permissible under the following conditions:

  • If a user chooses to unstake before the end of their selected period, they can do so. However, any profits accrued until that point will be deducted from their principal
  • The remaining principal amount, after the deduction of accrued profits, will be returned.
  • There is a 24-hour processing period for early unstaking requests. This time is required to calculate and deduct the earned profits and to process the return of the remaining principal

This early unstaking option provides flexibility while maintaining a fair system for all users participating in the staking program.
