### Unparalleled Passive Income Possibilities

FEG Staking is a protocol that allows FEG token holders to stake their tokens and earn rewards from the entire FEG ecosystem on that chain, with the potential for significant gains over time.

### Features of staking contract

<table data-card-size="large" data-column-title-hidden data-view="cards"><thead><tr><th></th><th></th><th data-hidden></th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Zero fees</td><td>No deposit or withdrawal fees for staking your FEG, it's free</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>No lock-in periods</td><td>FEG allows you to stake and unstake at anytime, total freedom</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Automatic compounding</td><td>Your rewards get auto distributed &#x26; compounded to gain even more over time</td><td></td></tr><tr><td>Upgradeable</td><td>The contract requires no action from users when staking contract gets upgraded</td><td></td></tr></tbody></table>

### **Staking rewards sources**

FEG Token stakers earn rewards from FEG trading volume PLUS from various taxes inside the SmartDeFi ecosystem, thus the more SD projects are active, the more passive rewards you get !

### **What is FST**

```

After staking, your FEG tokens will be deposited into the staking contract, and you will receive "FEG Staking Shares" (FST) in return. These shares represent your ownership in the staking pool. Think of FST as a receipt from the system confirming your successful stake. You must present this receipt to the system to unstake your tokens.

* FST is not a 1:1 ratio
* FST number does not increase with rewards
* Total FST / Total FEG = Ratio
* It is impossible to transfer FST to another wallet

### Optional FEG "Sacrifice"

The new staking contract introduced the sacrifice feature at the community's request. It allows those who wish to contribute to burn efforts to reduce the circulating token supply.\
\
When unstaking, Stakers can voluntarily burn a specified percentage of their FEG rewards, permanently removing these tokens from circulation.\
\
To activate this feature, specify the percentage you wish to sacrifice.

{% hint style="success" %}
At any point before unstaking, you can turn off the sacrifice by setting it to 0%
