# Rewards

## Staking Reward Distribution

* **Primary Distribution:** TitanX to Eden Token Stakers.
* **Reward Intervals:** Rewards are distributed at intervals of 8, 48 and 88 days.
* **Distribution Breakdown:**
  * **Every 8th Day:** (35% of Staking Rewards) of the total accumulated TitanX.
  * **Every 48th Day:** (35% of Staking Reward) of the total accumulated TitanX.
  * **Every 88th Day:** (25% of Staking Reward) of the total accumulated TitanX.

## Eden Bloom Reward

• 5% of TitanX Staking Reward Paid bi-weekly to a random qualified participant each week via decentralized smart contracts.

• To Qualify for the Eden Bloom Reward a User Must have a Minimum of 195,000 Eden Tokens Staked.

## Longer Staking Periods = More Rewards & E-Rank&#x20;

Users who stake their Eden tokens for longer periods will receive a larger percentage of the total rewards allocated to the 3 reward pools. This encourages longer-term staking and reduces circulating supply by locking up tokens for extended periods.

## Optional Auto-Compounding Mechanism

Eden offers an optional auto-compounding feature where staked rewards are automatically reinvested into the users stake, growing the user's overall staking position. This creates a snowball effect where the longer someone stakes, the more their position grows, increasing future rewards. This is attractive to users looking for passive, long-term growth. However, tokens that are auto-compounded into an existing stake will not receive new E-Rank Bonuses, only new stakes can receive E-Rank Bonus. One of the primary goals of the Eden Protocol is to become hyper-deflationary fast. If the protocol were to provide additional bonuses for auto-compounding unneeded inflation will occur and dilution of the existing Staker class.

### Further Details Regarding the Auto-Compounding Feature

It’s important to note that **only Eden tokens** are staked. If a User decides to Auto-Compounded their TitanX Rewards back into the Existing Eden Stake the process is as follows:

* First, the Smart Contract takes the **TitanX Rewards** and uses them to Buy **Volt** from the **Volt/TitanX** liquidity pool on Uniswap V3.
* Next, the Smart contract uses **Volt** and Buys **Eden** from the **Eden/Volt** liquidity pool Uniswap V3
* Lastly, the newly purchased **Eden tokens** are then added to your E**xisting Eden Staking Position** by the Smart Contract.
* This increases the **number of Eden tokens staked**, allowing for a **larger staking position** that will yield even more **TitanX** rewards in future payout cycles.

#### Summary of the Process:

* **TitanX rewards** are **automatically converted** into **Eden tokens** by buying from the **Uniswap V3 liquidity pools**.
* These **Eden tokens** are then **added to your existing Eden stake**, thereby increasing the size of your stake.
* This **larger Eden stake** will then generate more **TitanX rewards** over time, creating a **compounding effect**.

This process ensures that users can passively grow their Eden staking position.

## **No Penalties for Late Claims**&#x20;

Unlike many DeFi protocols, Eden does not penalize users for claiming rewards late. This feature ensures flexibility and fairness for all participants while still incentivizing longer staking periods.
