Managing your bond
Opening
The panel offers an amount between 20% and 100% of your balance. Below the floor the button stays disabled — a bond has to be a real commitment.
Every commitment mints a new position at 15%/day effective — the 10% base plus the +5 commit boost. Positions stay separate: each one compounds and pays on its own, and holding several is the normal state.
Compounding
The compound button becomes available as soon as anything has accrued. It does two things at once: rolls the rewards into your principal, and adds +0.25 point to your daily rate — the latter at most once per six-hour window.
The app shows a countdown to the next window, so you can tell whether pressing the button now earns the bonus or only the roll-in.
Claiming
Claiming pays your accrued rewards in C4 and leaves your rate untouched. There is no penalty for taking profit.
Remember the window rule: what you collect is capped at one six-hour window of accrual. Coming back after a day pays one window, not four — the missed ones are forfeited. The countdown in the app is therefore also your harvest clock.
Two things to keep in mind:
- Rewards are paid in tokens, not ETH. Converting them to ETH means selling, which costs 12.7% once your exempt allowance is spent, and the 3% tax alone while it still covers the sale. Any route qualifies, as long as the tokens leave your own wallet.
- If the pool cannot cover your claim in full, you receive what is available and the rest stays owed. The app surfaces this rather than showing a silent zero.
Before you sell
Any outbound token move — a sell, or a transfer of any size — permanently strips the +5 boost from every commit bond in the wallet, and the un-harvested window in progress is re-priced without it. Harvest before you sell. A commit bond opened afterwards starts boosted again.
Reading the pool
The pool figure is the honest headline number. Your rate tells you what you are entitled to; the pool tells you whether it can actually be paid.
