How to farm on SarosFarm
Step 1: Before staking, you must have LP tokens in your wallet. To own LP tokens, you can refer to “How to add liquidity on Saros Finance”
Step 2: On the Active tab, choose your desired pool -> Click Stake. This tutorial will take the C98-USDC LP as an example.
Note: You must read the information carefully before staking:
APR (Annual Percentage Rate): the number of rewards you will receive if farming this LP token in one year. The bigger the number, the more rewards you will receive in the pool.
Notice: Yield farming can give high APYs/ APRs rewards, but it comes with a risk of Impermanent Loss. It is not as scary as it sounds, but it is worth learning about the concept before you get started. Check out this great article about Impermanent Loss from Binance Academy to learn more.
Earn: The token reward you will earn from farming LP in the pool.
End at block: Once the pool has reached that block, the rewards for that pool will stop being distributed.
Liquidity: Total liquidity currently deposited in the pool.
Step 3: Select the amount of LP Token you want to stake, check the gas fee -> Click Stake Now.
Step 4: Wait a few minutes for the system to process. After processing successfully, the system will display a notification and your staked LP Token will be shown as below.
Note:
The rewards will be real-time updated, you can harvest anytime by clicking “Harvest”
You can stake more LP tokens by clicking the “+” button.
Otherwise, you can unstake by clicking the “-” button.
How to unstake
