pToken, fToken

When users deposit the underlying platform coins (TOKEN) into RetaFi for staking, they receive one of two types of tokens: pTOKEN or fTOKEN. Both types of tokens have distinct characteristics in terms of Annual Percentage Rate (APR) and staking options.

  1. pTOKEN (Permanent Token):

    • pTOKEN is used for fixed-term staking transactions.

    • When users stake and receive pTOKEN, they commit to holding the pTOKEN for a predetermined period they have chosen beforehand.

    • The APR of pTOKEN can be calculated using the formula: APRpTOKEN=TotalRewardsTotalValueofStakedpTOKENΓ—100APRpTOKEN=Total RewardsTotal Value of Staked pTOKENΓ—100%APRpTOKEN​=Total Value of Staked pTOKENTotal Rewards​×100%

    • Where:

      • TotalRewardsTotalRewardsTotal RewardsTotal Rewards is the total rewards earned from staking over a fixed period.

      • TotalValueofStakedpTOKENTotalValueofStakedpTOKENTotal Value of Staked pTOKENTotal Value of Staked pTOKEN is the total value of all staked pTOKEN.

  2. fTOKEN (Flexible Token):

    • fTOKEN is used for flexible staking transactions.

    • When users stake and receive fTOKEN, they have the flexibility to unstake their fTOKEN as needed.

    • The APR of fTOKEN can be calculated similarly to pTOKEN.
