### 1. I staked my $UWU before the end of the current Epoch. Now that a new Epoch has started, why can't I see my rewards yet?

• In order to start receiving staking rewards, your <mark style="color:blue;">**$UWU**</mark> must be staked for an entire epoch. \
**This means that you will start seeing rewards&#x20;**<mark style="color:blue;">**2 Epochs later**</mark>**&#x20;than the one you staked in.**

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:blue;">**Example**</mark>

Current Epoch: 5\
\
Staking before <mark style="color:blue;">**Epoch 5**</mark> ends means that your staked position will activate on **Epoch 6**. After **Epoch 6** ends, <mark style="color:blue;">**Epoch 7**</mark> begins and you earn rewards based on **Epoch's 6** staking rewards distribution.
{% endhint %}

• If your staked share is miniscule or the distributed rewards are only few, your epoch's rewards may not appear in the UI as the number is too small ( less than <mark style="color:blue;">**1 $UWU**</mark>).

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:blue;">**Example**</mark>

• Current Epoch's protocol fees = **$5,000**\
• 18% of the protocol fees go to Stakers = **$900**\
**•** You receive $UWU Staking Rewards equivalent to the size of your Staking Pool share,\
e.g **0.1%** =  <mark style="color:blue;">**0.9 $UWU**</mark>
{% endhint %}

### **2.** If my lock expires (e.g 30days), do I still earn rewards if I don't withdraw?  If yes, with what multiplier?

Once the lock expires, your stake stays active but with <mark style="color:blue;">**1x multiplier**</mark>.

### **3.** What's the difference between Request Withdraw and Withdraw?

If you <mark style="color:blue;">**Request Withdraw**</mark>, you will be able to <mark style="color:blue;">**Withdraw**</mark> your tokens after the current epoch ends. In order to withdraw a staked position, you first have to <mark style="color:blue;">**Request Withdraw**</mark>.

### 4. I started the unstaking process (Request Withdraw) and now my $UWU is available to Withdraw. Do I still get $UWU rewards if I don't withdraw during this epoch?

No. The last rewards you will be receiving for this staking position will be <mark style="color:blue;">**for the epoch where you requested the withdraw in**</mark>. Your stake then becomes <mark style="color:blue;">**inactive**</mark> and ready for Withdraw.

### **5.** What happens to an epoch's rewards if they are not claimed/compounded?&#x20;

Unlcaimed rewards <mark style="color:blue;">**accumulate**</mark> and you are free to claim or compound them as you see fit.

### **6.** Why can't I see my stake on the Staking Leaderboard?&#x20;

This is a <mark style="color:blue;">**UI bug**</mark> that we're working to fix ASAP.

### **7.** Why do I keep getting the Approve button instead of Deposit when I'm trying to stake?

This is a **UI bug** that we're working to fix ASAP. After approving your <mark style="color:blue;">**$UWU**</mark>, please wait a few seconds <mark style="color:blue;">**without refreshing**</mark>. The button should change to <mark style="color:blue;">**Deposit**</mark>.
