Staking

Creators earn trading fees, but what about the holders?

Every token that launches on Pumpkin comes with optional pre-baked staking.

Token Holders can simply stake their tokens to earn up to 80% share of trading fees paid in SOL.

Note: The exact fee share is set by the token creator at launch. Some creators—especially those with existing utility or revenue-generating projects—may choose not to distribute trading fees to stakers.

Now the question is how much APY can this provide for the holders?

We’ve done the math and, even better, we’ve launched a tool where you can check the APY for every token launched on Pumpkin that graduates to Raydium. Your favourite Squirrel "Peanut the Squirrel" could offer a 32% APY, while "Just a Chill Guy" can provide a 35% APY for it's holders if launched on Pumpkin.

This not only creates a source of passive income for holders but also promotes long-term holding, benefiting token stability and boosting creator earnings.

Unlocking Staking

From the time of token deployment, the specified amount of all trading fees is allocated to the staking pool. Once 5 SOL are collected, the pool is deployed and any remaining SOL are deposited as initial staking rewards. This ensures that users can stake their tokens and begin earning immediately.

Launching the staking pool early

Users have the option to contribute the remaining SOL required to activate the pool early.

Boosting Staking APY

When the staking pool has been deployed, users are able to deposit SOL directly into the staking pool to boost the APY. Any SOL deposited are distributed linearly over 30 days.
