Earnings Model: Lock Duration vs Yield
Staking Setup
Stake WCT between 1–105 weeks, with rewards distributed weekly and Stakeweight directly affecting earnings .
Stakeweight formula: (Amount × Remaining Weeks) / 209 .
Reward boost multipliers (up to 4×) currently apply – check the latest from official docs for current rate.
Base Yield Assumptions
Let’s assume:
Base APR (no lock): 8%
Boosted reward multiplier: 4×
→ Effective APR = 8% × 4 = 32% annualized (if boost remains)
If boost phases out over time, you can adjust the effective APR accordingly in the model.
Projection Example: 1 000 WCT Stake
Lock (weeks) Stakeweight Effective APR Duration Earnings
13 (3 mo) (1 000×13)/209 ≈ 62 32% **≈ 32 WCT/year** → ~8 WCT in 3 mo
52 (1 yr) ≈249 32% **~320 WCT/year**
105 (2 yr) ≈502 32% **~320 WCT/year** (cap at 2 yr)
Notes:
Reward is proportional to stakeweight share, not just raw amount.
Same APR (~32%) regardless of duration, but locking longer preserves higher weekly stakeweight longer, yielding higher total rewards.
As lock time decays, earnings reduce unless you restake or extend.
