# 1.1 Introduction

ShardingDAO is an NFT decomposition synthesis protocol based on Ethereum and Binance Smart Chain.

Users can securitize and fragment their NFT into ERC20 Tokens. And then, the shards will flow to the market for trade and mining.

Suppose you, as the owner of a shard, want to obtain full ownership of the original NFT. In that case, you can propose a buyout and then officially obtain the ownership through decentralized governance voting. After that, all the shards will be destroyed, making you the sole owner of that NFT.

# 1.3 Fragmentation & Subscription

The total amount of shards generated for each NFT is fixed at 10,000 on the ShardingDAO protocol.

## Fragmentation and Subscription Process

1. An NFT owner generates a certain number of shards from the NFT he owns and sets the Shard Name and Shard Symbol (ERC20 Token requirements), Booking Token Symbol (any ERC20 Token), and Minimum Subscription Amount.
2. Then the shards will enter the Marketplace for subscription, which lasts for 7 days by default. During this period, intended purchasers can stake or redeem cryptos in the first 5 days, while the last 2 days are only for redemption. If the Minimum Subscription Amount is not reached within 7 days, the subscription will fail, and so will the securitization. In this case, a user needs to redeem the staked cryptos manually.
3. Upon successful subscription, the Protocol deducts a subscription fee equivalent to 5% of the shards' total value (Shard Price *Shard Amount* 5%). The remaining subscription income belongs to the shards' creator, and he or she needs to collect the cryptos manually.
4. And then, 90% of the shards will be distributed to the subscribers on a pro-rata basis, while the original owner and the Protocol will each retain 5% of the total shards issued.


# 1.4 Secondary Market

* With the 5% shards it retains, the ShardingDAO protocol will create pairs in some DEX secondary markets and place the 5% shards there to increase liquidity.
* Users can either trade in DEX secondary markets or stake shards and the designated cryptocurrency to add liquidity then collect fees.


# 1.5 Liquidity Mining (Mining Phase 2)

Users who have staked both Shard and LP Tokens can access liquidity mining in the Pools. The mining reward will be in SHD.

During this period, users can make SHD profit on ShardingDAO platform, following the rules of liquidity mining with "SHD-ETH" and "SHD-BNB" Tokens.Among them, the SHD rewards of the “SHD-ETH” and “SHD-BNB” mining pools accounted for 90%; the SHD rewards of the top 3 mining pools in the “Shard-Subscription Tokens” locked up volume accounted for 10%, Users who participate in pool mining will divide rewards equally.

**Rewards Rules:** Only the top 3 mining pools will share the mining rewards divided evenly. If there are less than 3 mining pools, all current mining pools will share the mining rewards equally.

**Ranking Determinants:** The protocol determines the ranks of pools solely on 'TVL', aka Total Value Locked, and it is priced in USD. The Protocol calculates a pool's TVL as the Total Staked of all users in the pool, including all the Tokens that have not been redeemed.

**Ranking Updates:** A user can request ranking updates. Choose a pool that is not in the top 3 and request to compare it to a pool in the top 3. If the top 3 pool has a TVL smaller than the other pool, the protocol will remove it from the top 3 list, even if there are other pools in the top 3 whose TVL is smaller than that of the pool being removed.

## Staking rules

* Users who have staked LP Token cannot withdraw LP Tokens within the specified staking period. Users who redeem LP Tokens will no longer receive mining rewards. After the staking period expires, the user needs to redeem the staked Tokens manually. If there is no redemption after the expiration, the weight will continue to be calculated.

* Formula for calculating staking weight:

* Ratio of user rewards:

![](/files/-MY-02i_mQMaAsdJpLhL)

* Staking period: A user can stake for 1 month at least and 36 months at most.

**Rules for calculating weights of multiple lock-ups:**

In the case that the user locks the position multiple times, the user's lock weight is calculated in sections. Each time a lock is added, the weight will be recalculated and the expiration time will be updated to the maximum expiration time. The redemption will not be possible until the expiration time, otherwise no tokens can be redeemed;

Example 1:

The first lock-up amount is 100 and the duration is 6 months; before the first lock-up expires, at the fourth month, an additional lock-up amount is added which is 50 and the duration is 5 months, then the expiration time will be the latest . Also, the weight is recalculated as shown in the following table:

| Number                   | Amount | Period (Month) | Time               | Expiration | Weight                                                                                                                    |
| ------------------------ | ------ | -------------- | ------------------ | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| First Time               | 100    | 6              | 2022.01 \~ 2022.07 | 2022.07    | <p>= 100 \* \[(1+12/6) ^ (6/12) - 0.5]</p><p>= 123.2050</p>                                                               |
| <p>Second</p><p>Time</p> | 50     | 5              | 2022.06 \~ 2022.11 | 2022.11    | <p>= 100 \* \[(1+12/6) ^ (6/12) - 0.5] + 50 \* \[(1+12/5) ^ (5/12) - 0.5]</p><p>= 123.2050 + 58.2568</p><p>= 181.4618</p> |

Example 2:

The first lock-up quantity is 100, the duration is 6 months, and it is not redeemed after the expiration; 2 months after the first lock-up expires, an additional lock is added, the quantity is 50, and the duration is 3 months, then The latest expiration time is the expiration time of the second lock-up. At this time, the weight is calculated as shown in the following table:

| Number                   | Amount | Period (Month) | Time               | Expiration | Weight                                                                                                                    |
| ------------------------ | ------ | -------------- | ------------------ | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| First Time               | 100    | 6              | 2022.01 \~ 2022.07 | 2022.07    | <p>= 100 \* \[(1+12/6) ^ (6/12) - 0.5]</p><p>= 123.2050</p>                                                               |
| <p>Second</p><p>Time</p> | 50     | 3              | 2022.09 \~ 2022.12 | 2022.12    | <p>= 100 \* \[(1+12/6) ^ (6/12) - 0.5] + 50 \* \[(1+12/3) ^ (3/12) - 0.5]</p><p>= 123.2051 + 49.7674</p><p>= 172.9725</p> |


# 1.6 Mining Phase 1 vs Phase 2

Kindly note the output ber block is designed to be much higher during Mining Phase 1 than Mining Phase 2. Learn More Details.

ShardingDAO's Mining Phase 1 will officially start at 11:00 am (SGT) on March 23, 2021. It will last for 21 days. The total mining reward will be 1,500,000 SHD; the output of each block of the Ethereum chain will be 10.45 SHD. On Binance Smart Chain, the output of each block of the chain is 0.1240 SHD. 20% of the mining revenue will be deducted from the Smart Pool operation, and 20% of the mining revenue will be deducted if the pledge amount exceeds the Upper Limit of the respective cryptocurrency.

After Mining Phase 1 is over, Mining Phase 2 will begin. Mining Phase 2 rewards a total of 21,000,000 SHD, which will be released according to the 4-year halving rule. The output of each block of the Ethereum chain is 1.04994 SHD, and each block of the Binance Smart Chain produces 0.01246 SHD. 20% of the mining revenue will be deducted from the Smart Pool operation.

Of all mining revenues, 80% goes to mining users and 20% goes to Developer DAO.


# 1.7 Buyout Tender Offer

**Conditions:** users who hold no less than 15% Shards (the Offeror) can propose a buyout. Only one user can propose a buyout at one time. When the Offeror fails, other users can then propose another buyout.

**Process:**

1. Apply for "Buy Tender Offer" and initiate a proposal: The Offeror proposes a 'Buyout Tender Offer', and then in the Marketplace of ShardingDAO stakes the Shards he or she has and set a Price X which must be higher than the Shard's market price defined by the DEX secondary markets. In addition, he or she will need to stake some cryptos that worth no less than the remaining Shards in circulation according to the Price x that he or she just set. (For example, if the Offeror holds 15% of the Shards, the token to be staked needs 85% *Total Amount of Shards* Price x).
2. Voting: A voting starts after the Offeror stakes Shards and cryptos as required. Users who hold Shards can vote on it. If the result of the voting suggests a pass, the Buyout is considered successful. Otherwise, the Buyout fails.

* Votes Validation: Votes are Shards. 1 Shard = 1 Vote. Each user can only vote once, and it has to be done with all the Shards in possession. The Offeror cannot vote. Only the Shards owned at the time of the Buyout proposal will be count as valid as Votes. Any Shards obtained after the Buyout proposal will not be considered valid. If some Shards are collected after the Buyout proposal, they will not be count valid as votes.
* Approval: negative Votes / (total number of Shards - number of Shards staked by the Offeror) < = 25%.
* Voting Duration: the voting will last for 3 days once a Buyout proposal is raised.
* If the voting result is a pass:
  * Offeror: the staked shards will be burned and the NFT's ownership, as a whole, will be transferred from the contract to the Offeror.
  * The Protocol: The Protocol will retrieve the 5% Shards and cryptos from the DEX secondary markets. Among them, the Shards will be burned and the Protocol will prepare a certain amount of cryptos whose value is equal to the burned Shards, priced at Price x. Then, these two parts of cryptos will be sent to the Developor DAO Fund and the Platform Fund, who receive 20% and 80% respectively.
* If the voting result is a rejection:
  * Offeror: staked Shards and cryptos need to be redeemed manually by launching a separate transaction. And if they are not redeemed, another Buyout Tender Offer can be proposed.
  * Other users can now initiate other tender offers, even if the previous Offeror has not yet redeemed the staked.

3.Shards Collection: Once the Buyout succeeds, the ownership of NFT will be transferred to the Offeror. Other users who hold Shards will be forced to exchange Shards for cryptos at Price x. All Shards will be burned after a successful collection.


# 1.8 Incomes & Dividends

* Source of Incomes:

After the Subscription Period, there will be incomes for the Protocol, consisting of the cryptos and shards allocated to Protocol and a 0.3% Transaction Fee.

* Distribution of Incomes:

The DAO Governance Committee collectively decides where exactly the incomes go and whether some incomes will be distributed as dividends.


# 1.9 Bridge

Users could transfer and trade SHD on both Ethereum and BSC.Daily transaction is restricted at 50,000 SHD and will be updated 00:00 (GMT) everyday.

To ensure the cross-chain transfer, our team has issued additional 50,000 SHD on Ethereum and 150,000 on BSC.

If there is a shortage in the future, the platform will issue an additional 100,000 SHD at one time, with allocations undetermined at present


# 1.10 Token Bar

Sharding Bar continues to increase, each SHD staked can be exchanged for more SHD after 7 days lock-up. The profit comes from ShardingDAO team's share of NFT shards.

In the secondary market, users who hold 15%+ of the total supply of shards could initiate a tender offer on our platform, that is, to buy out all shards of a certain NFT asset. Once succeed, ShardingDAO will remove the previously added liquidity (fragments and subscription tokens). 80% of the removed value will be put into Platform Fund, which flows directly into Sharding Bar. By then, every SHD staked in Sharding Bar will have extra earns.


# 2. Launch Plan

ShardingDAO's launch is divided into 3 stages:

![](/files/-MWRxYcz36WZNxu8qaBg)

## **Phase 1**

**Referral Function Launch**

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.
* In the meanwhile, uninvited users will be automatically denied access. You can find a public referral link in our Discord group: <https://discord.com/invite/Y4YsGzjhbH>

*For more details, Please refer to* [*Referral mechanism*](/4.referral-mechanism)

**Mining Phase 1: Mining with cryptos**

We will be distributing 1,500,000 SHD in total (80% for mining users and 20% for developerDAO) from 11 am on March 23nd, 2021 (SGT) to April 13th, 2021 (SGT).

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.

**Exclusive AirDrop**

Exclusive Airdrop: How’s the 800 addresses selected?

As an upcoming NFT fragmentation protocol and a marketplace for the shards, Sharding DAO has picked the 600 most active addresses in trading volume, primarily on Niftgatewaym, Rarible, Openseas, Superrare, with the rest of the top 200 address on Snapshot that has the most votes will each receive 500SHD.

Exclusive Airdrop: Timeline

* From now on to 11 am on April 6th, 2021 (SGT), you can check whether or not you’ve become eligible for the airdrop but will not be able to claim it during this period.
* If you are one of the 800, you can claim your airdrop from 11 am on April 6th, 2021 (SGT) to July 15th, 2021 (SGT).
* Please note that you can no longer claim the airdrop after that and unclaimed $SHD will be taken back.

## **Phase 2**

**Fragmentation Function Release**

* NFT owners can fragment NFTs into shards to obtain revenue, etc.

## **Phase 3**

**Mining Phase 2: Mining with LP Tokens**

* Shard and LP Tokens can be used for mining.
* Users who have established a referral relationship can use LP Tokens for mining. Users who have not established a referral relationship need to establish a referral relationship before they can mine.

*For more details, Please refer to* [$SHD Distribution Mechanism of Mining](/3.token-distribution-shd#usdshd-distribution-mechanism-of-mining)


# 3. Token Distribution: $SHD

#### Token Distribution:

As ShardingDAO's governance token, $SHD will be distributed as below:

Liquidity Mining (56%): distributed to the public through liquidity mining.

Marketing & Airdrop (13.33%): reserved for Marketing and Airdrop to incentivize users.

Investors (13.33%): reserved for future investors.

Developer DAO (17.34%): reserved for developers, released along with protocol liquidity mining.

|                            | Distribution | Percentage |
| -------------------------- | ------------ | ---------- |
| Mining                     | 16,800,000   | 56%        |
| Marketing Mining & AirDrop | 4,000,000    | 13.33%     |
| Investors                  | 4,000,000    | 13.33%     |

![](/files/-MW-ZULypJa0GiaJ5Weh)

#### $SHD Distribution Mechanism of Mining Phase 2：

* Total Token Supply: 21 million (95% for Ethereum, 5% for BSC)
* Distribution Rules: 80% (16.8M) goes to mining users and 20% (4.2M) goes to Developer DAO.
* Halving Plan: There will be a halving every 4 years (Ethereum: 6,496 blocks generated in one day; BSC: 28,800 blocks generate in one day)

# 4. Referral Mechanism

## 4.1 Rules

* Each user can generate a referral link;
* To join mining, a user needs be using a referral link to land on the website.
* Users can establish a referral relationship at any time after they are logged in.
* Each established Referral Relationship provides a 'Booster' to the mining profits, which is valid for all pools.
* The user's 'Booster' will start to be calculated as soon as any staking is carried out. The weight of users participating in the referral mechanism will increase towards higher mining profits.

## 4.2 Calculation for Referral Relationships Bonuses

* Once a referee staked in a pool, 5% of the referee's staking weight will be added to the referrer's staking weight. And for the referee, his or her staking weight enjoys an extra 10% multiplier. Here, 'staking weight' means the user's original share in the pool.
* If a user stakes in multiple pools, the user's Referral Relationship bonuses will apply to every pool.
* Each user can only be invited once, while one user can refer as many users as he or she wants. When there is already an existing Referral Relationship, another Referral Relationship will be considered invalid and will not be count towards the bonus.
* Bonus Cancellation
  * When a user's Total Staked decreases, which usually means to redeem tokens, the user's Referral Relationship bonus in this pool becomes invalid.
  * When a user has staked in multiple pools, his or her Referral Relationship bonuses apply to every single pool. When he or she redeems from one of these pools, the bonus is only removed from that one pool. His or her stakes in other pools will remain affected.

## 4.3 Procedures

* User A generates a referral link and sends it to a community or User B.
* User B clinks the link and authorizes to connect a wallet. Once a wallet is connected, the system recognizes the Referral Relationship from User A to User B as established, which both sides can view in the wallet.


# 5. Black List & White List

Black List and White List can only be revised by the Protocol's development team. The DAO Governance Committee, upon its inception, can add items to or remove items from the White List via votings.

**White List:**

* When users start a Fragmentation, they need to decide on the types of cryptocurrencies they want to accept for Subscription. Other types of cryptocurrencies will not be allowed to stake for this Subscription.

**Black List:**&#x20;

* Blacklisted pairs cannot receive dividends.
* Once a dividend-receiving pool ended up on the blacklist, the pool immediately becomes ineligible for mining rewards. The mining rewards this pool has already obtained will be:

  Distributed evenly to the other pools that are eligible for dividends.

After the listing, any user can perform the "Settle" operation, and the transaction needs to be confirmed in the connected wallet to complete the operation.

![](/files/-MXGMc2ExpqjQmQyos1t)

If the shards are successfully subscribed, the token shards are created successfully after the pricing completes. The NFT ownership will be transferred and the shards and the Subscribing Tokens that have participated in the subscription will be distributed. At the same time, the status of the shards will become "Listed";

![](/files/-MXATkzZrtgEvOksfYlb)

If the shard subscription fails, after the pricing is completed, the creation of the token shard fails, and the redemption of the subscription token will be supported. At the same time, the status of the shard will become "Failed".

After the setting is completed, the number of subscription tokens and shards to be pledged will be displayed above the "Apply" button:

The number of shards is all the shards held by the user, assuming 15%;

The value corresponding to the number of staked subscribing tokens must be greater than or equal to the value of the remaining shards circulating in the market, namely (1-15%Shard Amount) \* Price x.

Click the "Apply" button to complete the application, and the transaction needs to be confirmed in the connected wallet to complete the operation.

After the transaction is completed, the status of the fragment will change to "Apply for Buyout".

## Rules for calculating weights of multiple lock-ups:

In the case that the user locks the position multiple times, the user's lock weight is calculated in sections. Each time a lock is added, the weight will be recalculated and the expiration time will be updated to the maximum expiration time. The redemption will not be possible until the expiration time, otherwise no tokens can be redeemed;

Example 1:

The first lock-up amount is 100 and the duration is 6 months; before the first lock-up expires, at the fourth month, an additional lock-up amount is added which is 50 and the duration is 5 months, then the expiration time will be the latest . Also, the weight is recalculated as shown in the following table:

| Number                   | Amount | Period | Time               | Expiration | Weight                                                                                                                    |
| ------------------------ | ------ | ------ | ------------------ | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| First Time               | 100    | 6      | 2022.01 \~ 2022.07 | 2022.07    | <p>= 100 \* \[(1+12/6) ^ (6/12) - 0.5]</p><p>= 123.2050</p>                                                               |
| <p>Second</p><p>Time</p> | 50     | 5      | 2022.06 \~ 2022.11 | 2022.11    | <p>= 100 \* \[(1+12/6) ^ (6/12) - 0.5] + 50 \* \[(1+12/5) ^ (5/12) - 0.5]</p><p>= 123.2050 + 58.2568</p><p>= 181.4618</p> |

Example 2:

The first lock-up quantity is 100, the duration is 6 months, and it is not redeemed after the expiration; 2 months after the first lock-up expires, an additional lock is added, the quantity is 50, and the duration is 3 months, then The latest expiration time is the expiration time of the second lock-up. At this time, the weight is calculated as shown in the following table:

| Number                   | Amount | Period | Time               | Expiration | Weight                                                                                                                    |
| ------------------------ | ------ | ------ | ------------------ | ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| First Time               | 100    | 6      | 2022.01 \~ 2022.07 | 2022.07    | <p>= 100 \* \[(1+12/6) ^ (6/12) - 0.5]</p><p>= 123.2051</p>                                                               |
| <p>Second</p><p>Time</p> | 50     | 3      | 2022.09 \~ 2022.12 | 2022.12    | <p>= 100 \* \[(1+12/6) ^ (6/12) - 0.5] + 50 \* \[(1+12/3) ^ (3/12) - 0.5]</p><p>= 123.2051 + 49.7674</p><p>= 172.9725</p> |

**Q: Which NFTs can be fragmented into Shards?**

A: All NFTs that meet the ERC721 standard can be fragmented into shards.

**Q: How is the subscription for Shards distributed?**

A: During the Subscription Period, the subscribers pledge a certain amount of cryptos in the contract. When the total pledge amount reaches the Minimum Subscription Amount set by the original owner at the end of the Subscription Period, the Shards will be distributed according to the proportion of cryptos staked by each subscriber.

**Q: What do you do with Shards?**

A: A shard owner can directly trade shards in ShardingDAO's marketplace or hold them for dividends and price appreciation if applicable. Also, a shard owner can choose to add liquidity to any AMM-enabled DEX to obtain liquidity provider tokens and then pledge these LP tokens in ShardingDAO Farms to receive $SHD liquidity mining rewards.

**Q: How to acquire NFT in ShardingDAO?**

**A:** Users need to obtain 15% of the total number of Shards corresponding to NFT. If they hold less than 15% of the total number of Shards, they can purchase them in DEX. After owning 15% of the total number of Shards, users can apply for tender offer. Users who hold Shards can vote. After the voting is passed, the tender offer applicant can obtain the ownership of NFT.

**Q: Do I have to pay for publishing Shard?**

**A:** After successful Shard subscription, the protocol will collect 5% of the Shard and Subscribing token (Equivalent to 5% of the Shard) and send them into the secondary market to add liquidity.

**Q: How to update pool ranking?**

**A:** Users can select any pool that is not in the top 10 (including those which are not staked by themselves) to initiate the transaction of updating the ranking.
