💸Yield - APY

Detailed information on the potential returns from participating in liquid staking.

Project Pi delivers real yield for users staking PLS, without the risks of impermanent loss. Our liquid staking model ensures that all returns come directly from validators—a transparent and sustainable source of rewards. The yield is determined by the balance of PLS in the liquid staking pool and the validators' performance.

• Single-Sided Staking: Stake PLS directly without needing to pair assets or deal with impermanent loss.

• Validator-Backed Yield: Rewards are generated solely from validator operations, ensuring stable, predictable returns.

• No Hidden Risks: Every stPLS token reflects real staking rewards from validators.

Yield Generation Summary

Project Pi's yield generation involves three key participants:

1. Node Operators (Pi Pools):

   • Pi Pools operate validators on PulseChain, earning native validation rewards.

2. Liquid Stakers:

   • Users stake PLS and receive stPLS, representing their stake.

   • stPLS grows in value over time as validation rewards are added back to the pool.

3. NFT Stakers:

   • Users holding PRC404-based PPY NFTs can stake their NFTs.

   • NFT stakers earn redemption fees when liquid stakers swap stPLS back to PLS.

Yield Insights

• Base Validation Yield: Generated from validators securing the network.

• Redemption Fee Yield: NFT stakers earn fees from swaps between stPLSand PLS.

Fee Insights

• Unstaking Fee: A 1.25% unstaking fee is applied when Liquid Stakers convert their stPLS back to claim their rewards.

  • 50% goes to the Project Pi Foundation

  • 30% of the unstaking fee goes to NFT Stakers

  • 20% is burned, reducing the supply of PLS
