Stake Smarter. Earn XUSD. Power the Future of DeFi.
AstraSwap is an innovative, interoperable, and fully modular decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol running on the scalable EpicChain blockchain. Designed with composability and capital efficiency in mind, AstraSwap empowers users to make the most of their assets through staking, yield strategies, and stablecoin issuance — all centered around one powerful tool: the AstraSwap Vault.
At its core, the Vault serves as an all-in-one asset management and stablecoin issuance hub. Here, users can:
- Stake assets and liquidity tokens
- Earn XUSD as yield and protocol incentives
- Mint more XUSD through overcollateralization
- Manage positions with transparent smart contracts
The Vault ecosystem is optimized for decentralized performance, letting users keep full custody while participating in AstraSwap's token economy.
Staking in AstraSwap is more than just passive income — it’s an interactive and reward-generating mechanism that powers the entire ecosystem. Users deposit supported assets (XEP-5 tokens such as wrapped tokens or LP tokens) into the Vault and receive rewards in XUSD, AstraSwap's stable and protocol-native token.
Upon staking, users:
- Earn XUSD in real-time as staking rewards
- Use the same staked collateral to mint XUSD
- Gain access to advanced DeFi opportunities like liquidity farming, trading, or lending
This creates a sustainable, dual-utility model for XUSD, driving both its demand and usability.
-
Select Your Token:
Choose from a whitelist of XEP-5 tokens including:- Wrapped XPR/XPP (e.g., wXPR, wXPP)
- AstraSwap LP tokens from liquidity pools
- Native tokens approved by governance
-
Deposit & Lock in the Vault:
Tokens are deposited into the Staking Contract, optionally locked for a predefined duration (7, 14, or 30 days). -
Earn XUSD Rewards:
Based on:- Amount of tokens staked
- Lock duration (longer = higher rewards)
- Asset type multiplier (certain assets may yield more)
-
Mint More XUSD:
Your collateral supports the issuance of fresh XUSD:- Minting limit: 80% Loan-to-Value (LTV)
- Oracle-verified pricing ensures safety
- This XUSD can be re-used across AstraSwap services or off-chain integrations
-
Withdraw When Ready:
After lockup or repayment of any XUSD minted, users can reclaim their full stake.
| Token Type | Utility | Eligibility for XUSD Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| Wrapped Assets | Cross-chain tokens like wXPR, wXPP | ✅ Yes |
| LP Tokens | Liquidity pool shares on AstraSwap AMM | ✅ Yes |
| Whitelisted Assets | Other protocol-specific or DAO-approved tokens | ✅ Yes |
📌 New tokens may be added through DAO voting mechanisms.
Below is a list of contracts deployed as part of the AstraSwap Staking ecosystem. Developers and integrators can use these scripthashes for Web3 dApps, wallets, or explorer lookups.
| Contract Name | Script Hash |
|---|---|
| Staking Contract | 0xabcdef1234567890fedcba0987654321aabbccdd |
| XUSD Token Contract | 0x9988ffcc1122aabb4433ddeeff88997766554433 |
| Vault Core Logic | 0x1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdefabcdef12 |
| Reward Manager | 0xaabbccddeeff00112233445566778899aabbccdd |
Always verify network (Mainnet/Testnet) before executing transactions.
AstraSwap uses a block-by-block emission model, where stakers receive XUSD rewards proportional to:
- ✅ Total stake value (based on USD equivalent)
- 🕒 Lock duration (bonus multipliers up to 2x)
- 📊 Token type weight
This means the longer you stake and the more value you provide, the higher your XUSD reward yield. Additionally:
- Rewards are updated in real-time
- Users can compound rewards or claim manually
- Future staking rounds may introduce veXUSD governance participation
Let’s say John has $1,000 worth of LP Tokens.
- He locks them into the Vault for 30 days.
- The protocol assigns a 1.5x multiplier for LP tokens with this duration.
- He receives daily XUSD rewards based on the adjusted stake value of $1,500.
- After 7 days, John has earned 125 XUSD in rewards.
- He decides to mint another 700 XUSD against his LP collateral (70% LTV).
- John can now use XUSD to provide liquidity, swap, or lend elsewhere!
All positions within the Vault follow robust risk control mechanisms:
- ✅ Over-collateralization: Users can only mint XUSD up to a safe percentage of their collateral value (e.g., 70–80% LTV).
- 📉 Real-time Oracles: Ensure accurate pricing of collateral assets.
⚠️ Auto-liquidation: If collateral value drops below safety thresholds, positions are liquidated, and XUSD debt is repaid.- 🛠️ Liquidator Incentives: A portion of liquidated assets is given as a reward to protocol-maintained or third-party liquidators.
The AstraSwap Vault and Staking Contracts are fully composable and available for external integrations.
