How to Stake & Unstake FAF
Step by Step Guide
Connect Your Wallet
First things first - hit that "Get Started!" button in the top right corner and connect your preferred Solana wallet (Phantom, Solflare, etc.).
Get Some FAF (If You Need It)
Don't have FAF yet? No worries!
Click on the "Swap" tab
Enter how much USDC, SOL, etc... you want to swap for FAF
Set your slippage tolerance (usually Auto works fine)
Hit "Connect Wallet" if you haven't already
Confirm the swap and you're good to go!
Staking Your FAF
Navigate to Staking
Click on the "Token" tab in the main navigation
This takes you straight to the FAF Staking page
Stake Your Tokens
In the "Enter Amount" field, type how much FAF you want to stake
Click the "Stake" button
Confirm the transaction in your wallet
Boom! You're now earning rewards and Voltage Points
Pro tip: You can see your current staking APY right there on the page.

Unstaking Your FAF
What Happens Next
Once you initiate an unstake:
Tokens unlock linearly over 90 days — Based on seconds elapsed, not calendar days
You keep earning revenue share — Proportional to your remaining locked stake
Adjustments every 6 hours — Your unlocked balance and revenue share update alongside the regular revenue distribution crank
Example
If you unstake 900 FAF:
0
900
100%
30
600
66%
60
300
33%
90
0
Fully Unlocked
Remember: To earn full rewards during an epoch, your staked tokens should stay put for the full duration.
Quick Tips 💡
Staking Epochs: Each epoch lasts 30 days
Unstaking Period: 90 days linear unlock (no instant option)
Revenue Share: Continues proportionally during unstaking
Voltage Points: Earned through trading, LP participation, and referrals
Rewards: Higher rank = better multipliers (up to 2x)
Minimum Stake: Check the current minimums on the staking page
Important Notes
No instant unstake: The previous 3% fee instant unstake option has been removed. All unstaking now follows the 90-day linear schedule.
Continuous earnings: Unlike the old system where unstaking stopped your rewards immediately, you now continue earning revenue share on your locked portion throughout the unlock period.
