You can stake or collect at any time. But the rewards can only be harvested in the last 7 days and after.

Each token has an upper limit on collateral. If a user’s collateral is equal to or exceeds the upper limit, then it will deduct a fee of 20% of the profit from mining, and the fee will go into the Marketing Fund for promotional purposes.

If the vaults is used for mining, ShardingDAO will deduct a fee of 20%, which will go into the Marketing Fund for promotional purposes.

Rules

• During this period, users with established referral relationships can mine with a range of cryptos. You can access the pools from here: https://app.shardingdao.com/farms-stage-one

• With each referral relationship established, both sides become entitled to higher mining rewards. This means, for a referer, more referees always result in higher mining rewards. In the meanwhile, uninvited users will be automatically denied access to the Pools.
