Xai on Yield Pass
Tiny Key Node Owners have two options to use Yield Pass. Below is how they work, the benefits, and the potential risks of each:
DEPOSIT & EARN: Earn swap fees and MetaStreet Node Crystals when you deposit and become a Liquidity Provider for $XAI and Yield Pass ($YP) Tokens
DEPOSIT & SELL: Instantly unlock liquidity when you deposit and sell your $YP for $XAI, however, you will NOT be eligible for MetaStreet Node Crystals
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Tiny Keys must be staked in a Diamond or Platinum pool in order to be eligible for deposit to ensure consistent yield disbursement for participants. Inconsistent or lower emissions would impact the overall yield quality for all depositors.
To earn Node Crystals, you must (1) create an Ascend account and (2) not sell your LP tokens. Any Crystals earned prior to selling your LP will remain
1. Deposit & Earn
This option allows you to earn swap fees and MetaStreet Node Crystals (our native rewards) by becoming a Liquidity Provider (LP).
How it Works:
Reminder: These three steps occur in one single, bundled transaction
Deposit & Mint: Deposit your node to mint two tokens:
Yield Pass ($YP): represents future $esXAI emissions/airdrops, claimable when the pool expires
Node Pass (NP): represents node ownership, claimable when the pool expires
Borrow: Use your NP as collateral to borrow $XAI with the following terms:
Amount and Rate: 10 $XAI at 0% APR (introductory rate)
Term: 140 days from when you deposited (50d buffer after pool expiry)
Provide Liquidity: Supply $YP and $XAI to the Liquidity Pool to:
Earn swap fees by creating a new liquid swap market for $XAI
Benefits:
Access $XAI liquidity without selling your node, waiting for emissions or vesting
Earn yield through swap fees and earn MetaStreet's Node Crystals
Borrow at 0% APR for a limited time
Risks:
Impermanent Loss: Market fluctuations in price between the time of deposit and withdrawal may change the value of your underlying LP position, specifically the quantity of each token
Loan Default: Failing to repay your loan before maturity date will result in the loss of your node. Set calendar reminders to avoid default. Read about Withdrawals below
2. Deposit & Sell
Instantly unlock liquidity when you deposit and sell your $YP for $XAI, however, you will NOT be eligible for MetaStreet Node Crystals.
How it Works:
Deposit & Mint: Deposit your node to mint two tokens:
Yield Pass ($YP): represents future $esXAI emissions/airdrops, claimable when the pool expires
Node Pass (NP): represents node ownership, claimable when the pool expires
Sell: Swap $YP for $XAI instantly from the Liquidity Pool (Uniswap)
Benefits:
Immediate liquidity without waiting for pool expiration or the 180 day vesting period
Risks:
You are accepting the current swap rate for $XAI, which is market dependent
You forfeit the ability to earn swap fees and MetaStreet Node Crystals
Final Steps: Withdraw, Rollover, Claim
Depositors have two options at the pool expiration:
ROLLOVER: Roll your node over into the next Yield pass pool
WITHDRAW: Exit the pool by removing your node from Yield Pass
IMPORTANT NOTES:
You can begin the NP withdrawal or rollover process at pool expiration
You MUST complete either option prior to loan maturity to avoid default
Rollovers do not impact the claims process since each new pool will have a new Yield Pass pool
1. ROLLOVER
This option allows a depositor to fully exit their position from Yield Pass. Here are the steps:
Unlike for Deposit, these transactions will require individual steps
Remove LP Tokens: Remove liquidity to receive $YP and $XAI
Refinance Node: Refinance your NP loan
Rollover Node: Rollover your node into the new pool
Claim $esXAI Emissions: Burn your $YP to receive $esXAI
Node will not have idle time where it isn't earning emissions as it will remain staked
2. WITHDRAW
This option allows a depositor to fully exit their position from Yield Pass. Here are the steps:
Unlike for Deposit, these transactions will require individual steps
Remove LP Tokens: Remove liquidity to receive $YP and $XAI
Repay Borrowed $XAI: Repay your loan to reclaim your NP Token
Redeem Node: Use your NP to reclaim your node
Claim $esXAI Emissions: Burn your $YP to receive $esXAI
The user does not have to restake their node after they exit, as it will remain staked in the same pool as prior to and during NodeFi
CLAIM
If you minted $YP or purchased $YP via swaps, you are not affected by either Withdraw or Rollover options. Here are the steps:
Claim: Claim your $esXAI emissions and receive $esXAI immediately
Manage: Redeem for $XAI or Stake $esXAI in a staking pool
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Claims for $esXAI emissions will open immediately after pool's expiration
User is then responsible for redeeming for $XAI or staking on Xai's app
Claims are a one-time process to avoid confusion and errors (you will not be able to redeem for less than the full amount of $YP you own)
