We are excited to finally announce the long anticipated staking of the $MOD token. This first round of Multi-chain staking (Yes! There will be staking for $MOD on other networks in the near future) will be on the one and only Fantom Network.

The staking contracts will officially open for deposits on March 31st at 9PM UTC. The staking dashboard is now live at https://dashboard.modefi.io/#/staking-rewards

Important: Staked tokens will be locked for the 90 day duration!

As most of the Modefi community already knows, part of the commitment to launching on Trustswap on February 10th, the top 1000 SWAP Score addresses received a $MOD airdrop to their wallets via the Fantom Network. We felt this was a great way to kick off the launch of staking on Fantom. In the process we were able to save over $8k in transaction fees being that Fantom has sub 1 cent fees and 1–3 second finality. This savings was used to buy $MOD from the market to increase the initial rewards on Fantom staking.

Your rewards will be proportionate to your staked amount. Start staking early on to see the best results. All stakes will be locked in for the 90 day duration.
