Flareporium offers a variety of staking pools designed to cater to the unique needs of various participants within our ecosystem. Whether you're staking Block Sapiens NFTs to earn $FOTON or staking $FOTON to receive $FLR (& later other ERC-20 tokens), our staking options provide multiple avenues for rewards and engagement. By staking $FOTON, our native utility token, users can earn a share of application fees, actively participate in platform governance, and support liquidity provision. These staking mechanisms are crafted to ensure sustainable tokenomics, encourage long-term participation, and cultivate a vibrant and thriving community.
Key Staking Pools
Yield Vault Staking: Earn rewards based on real-time platform activity and trading volume.
Oracle Vault Staking: Benefit from rewards generated through Flare Time Series Oracle (FTSO) delegation of $WFLR.
Block Sapiens NFT Staking: Stake unique NFTs to earn $FOTON and gain access to additional ecosystem rewards.
Governance Staking: Participate in decentralized governance and earn rewards for active involvement.
LP Staking: Provide liquidity to the $FOTON/$FLR trading pair and receive incentives.
Yield Vault Staking
The Yield Vault allows $FOTON holders to stake their tokens and earn rewards linked directly to the platform’s fee generation. Deposits of $FLR (wrapped or native), F-Assets, or other ERC-20 tokens can flow into this vault from marketplace fees or other external scripts, which are then distributed to stakers on a periodic (epoch) basis.
Key Features
Epoch-Based Model: The vault aligns with Flare’s ~3.5-day reward epochs. Staked $FOTON becomes active when a new epoch starts, and any mid-epoch unstaking forfeits that epoch’s rewards for the removed portion.
Multiple Token Rewards: In addition to $FLR/$WFLR, the Yield Vault can distribute other ERC-20 tokens if they are deposited as fees.
Reward Claims: Users must manually claim their rewards. Unclaimed rewards remain claimable for up to 26 epochs (~91 days). After that, they are pruned and redistributed among active stakers.
No Fixed “Pool Closure”: The Yield Vault does not rely on a strict time-lock window. Instead, it continuously operates epoch-to-epoch, utilizing an active/pending stake system which allows participants to join or leave at any time.
Incentivized Updates: A small portion of newly deposited tokens may reward the function caller who finalizes epochs or triggers reward distribution updates.

Oracle Vault Staking
The Oracle Vault is integral in Flareporium’s mission to operate its own Flare Time Series Oracle (FTSO). By staking $FOTON, participants may earn sustainable rewards generated through $WFLR delegations.
Key Features
Delegation-Based Rewards: The vault delegates its $WFLR to FTSO providers on the Flare Network, earning $WFLR rewards over time.
Predictable Earnings: Rewards are relatively stable, as they depend on FTSO delegation performance and grows with shared inflows (such as from the Momentum Reserve).
Initial Contribution: An initial fund (e.g., 50,000 $FLR) is deposited by the Flareporium Team to jump-start delegation rewards.
Reward Claims: Similar to the Yield Vault, rewards accumulate on a ~3.5-day epoch cycle and must be manually claimed by participants. After 26 epochs, unclaimed rewards are pruned and effectively retained within the vault’s balance, bolstering rewards for active stakers.
No Fixed “Pool Closure”: The Oracle Vault does not rely on a strict time-lock window. Instead, it continuously operates epoch-to-epoch, allowing participants to join or leave at any time.
Additional Funding: This vault may also receive $FLR/$WFLR from external sources like the Mint Treasury or the Momentum Reserve, further boosting its reward potential for stakers.
