🚜Farming

Farms allow users to earn BLDT while supporting BlueLotusDAO by staking LP Tokens.

Check out our How to Use Farms guide to get started with farming.

Reward calculations

Yield Farm APR calculations include both:

• LP rewards APR earned through providing liquidity and;

• Farm base rewards APR earned staking LP Tokens in the Farm.

Why? Because when you stake your LP tokens in a farm to earn BlueLotusDAO Tokens, you're still providing liquidity to the liquidity pool, so you earn LP rewards as well!

So how do we calculate those figures?

Calculating Farm Base Reward APR

The Farm Base APR is calculated according to the farm multiplier and the total amount of liquidity in the farm -- this is the amount of tokens distributed to the farm.

Calculating LP Reward APR

On top of that, farmers receive LP rewards for providing liquidity. Here's an example of calculating LP rewards:

In the pair above (FOR EXAMPLE), we see these values:

Liquidity: $XXX.XXM Volume 24H: $YY.YYM Volume 7D: XXX.XXM

• Calculate yearly fees

  • Use the 24H volume to calculate the fee share of liquidity providers in the pool (based on the 0.17% trading fee structure): $YYY.YYY,YY*0.17/100 = $FFF,FFF

  • Next, use that fee share to estimate the projected yearly fees earned by the pool (based on the current 24h volume): $FFF,FFF*365 = $SSS.SSS,SS

• We can now use the yearly fees to calculate the LP rewards APR: That's yearly fees divided by liquidity: ($SS.SSS,SS/$XXX.XXX.XXX)*100 = ??.??% LP reward APR
