  • Go to your browser and visit MetaMask.io or go to your browser extensions and search for MetaMask and then add that extension to the browser.

MetaMask configuration

  • Initially, you will be asked to import the wallet or create a new one
  • If you have already created a wallet before then import it using it’s private key otherwise select to create a new one.
  • MetaMask will provide you with the secret phrase this is required for recovering a private key. Download it, Memorize it or write it down someplace safe and make sure no one else can get access to it. If you are to lose this and lose access to your funds they are lost!
  • On the next step it will ask you to enter the phrase in the same order as it was originally presented.
  • And then just after reading and agreeing to their terms and conditions Boom!, your decentralized wallet is created on MetaMask. To access it click on the MetaMask icon on the top right corner of your browser (where you will also find your other extensions.

Features of the App:

Stake

To Stake $PHNX tokens, follow the steps below.

  • Navigate to the Stake (icon) section from the left sidebar.
  • When you stake for the very first time, you will need to approve $PHNX Tokens by clicking on the Approve PHNX button and sending an approval transaction.
  • After you have approved the tokens the ‘Confirm Stake’ button will appear, enter the amount of $PHNX you want to stake and set the duration for staking, click on the ‘Confirm Stake’ button, you will then be prompted to do a MetaMask transaction then your tokens will now be staked.

Max Stake limit : 20,000
Max Duration : 365 days
Max Spot Interest: 20% APR

Unstake — Early unstake incurs burn feature which is relative to time spent staking.

To Unstake Phoenix Tokens, follow the steps below.

  • Navigate to the Unstake section from the left sidebar.
  • Enter the amount you want to unstake. Then click on Confirm Unstake to withdraw your Tokens.
  • Here we will automatically calculate the early withdrawal fee (Token burn) required, this calculation is based on Amount of PHNX multiplied by the remaining days of the contract, divided by the total days.

DISCLAIMER: By clicking “Confirm” you agree to our early PHNX withdrawal token burn rate i.e burn rate = Staked amount multiplied by the number of days remaining divided by the total days staked (e.g. — stake 10,000 PHNX for 365 days, then chose to withdraw after 100 days would equate to 7260.27 PHNX being burnt and you receiving 2,739.73 PHNX).As a result, PhoenixDAO Foundation cannot be held liable for any loss incurred from engaging in early withdrawal activity
