Arena Staking Pool
On this page
The Arena Staking Pool is an INKY staking plan tied to the Arena, open to any registered user. Each contract locks its INKY for 36 months, like the 36-month plan, but the pool earns from two sources instead of one: an emission of its own, created on top of the common pools' emission, and a share of the fees the Arena charges on its games.
The Arena is the feature; the Arena Staking Pool is the staking product that earns from it.
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Asset |  |
| Minimum amount | 1.92 INKY (3 USDT) |
| Lock-up | 36 months per contract. Each contract locks its amount for 36 months from the day it opens. The pool itself has no set end date: it may keep running after that, or pause new contracts while the open ones run to the end of their term |
| Principal | Released at maturity. No early exit |
| Rewards | Credited daily, harvestable any time from 24 hours after activation |
| Reward sources | Its own daily INKY emission plus a share of Arena fees |
| Rate | Variable (see the app for the current rate) |
| Performance fee | 25% on profit only, never on the principal |
| Harvest fee | 3 USDT per operation |
Two reward streams
- Arena activity. 50% of the Arena fee on each winning round goes to the pool. Because this depends on real usage, it is not fixed.
- Its own INKY emission. A daily emission is directed to the Arena Staking Pool, separate from and on top of the 10,000 INKY/day the common pools share. It scales with how much is staked in the pool:
| Total staked in Arena Staking Pool | Additive daily emission |
|---|---|
| Below 2,500,000 INKY | +5,000 INKY/day |
| From 2,500,000 INKY | +10,000 INKY/day |
What sets its daily rate
Both streams land in the same pool and are shared by everything staked in it:
Its own emission
5,000 INKY a day while less than 2,500,000 INKY is staked in the pool, and 10,000 INKY a day from then on. Minted on top of the common pools' emission, never out of it.
Arena games
50% of the Arena fee on each winning round goes to the pool.
So the pool's daily rate depends on two things: how much INKY is staked in it, which divides both streams, and how much activity the Arena has, which sizes the second one. More INKY staked in the pool lowers the rate; more Arena activity raises it. How the daily rate changes covers the same rule for the other pools.
