We’ve launched a program for STON token stakers — Boost Farm APR that rewards users who stake STON and farm in the STON/USDt V2 pool.

What’s new: Boost Farm APR for STON stakers
We want DeFi on TON to feel rewarding without being complicated, that’s why we introduced Boost Farm APR — a program that multiplies your APR in the STON/USDt V2 pool.
Boost Farm APR is a new opportunity for STON stakers. Historically, staking STON granted voting power (ARKENSTON) for DAO governance. Now, stakers can also boost their farming rewards in the STON/USDt V2 pool. As we expand the program, additional pools may become eligible — stay tuned.
How it works
- If you stake STON and farm the STON/USDt V2 pool, your farm rewards receive an APR multiplier.
- Stake 500+ STON → up to 1.5× farm APR.
- Stake 1,000+ STON → up to 2× farm APR.
- The extra APR (the “boost” portion) is paid out in STON via an airdrop in a specified rewards period.
- Only staking in STON.fi app counts, third-party staking doesn’t qualify.
- The boost applies only while you are actively staking during the campaign window. If your stake ends, boost accrual stops.
- Maximum eligible liquidity for the boost: $10,000 per participant.

Step 2: Farm STON/USDt V2
- Go to the STON/USDt V2 pool and check that Boost Farm APR is active. It’s shown on the pool label.
- If you don’t have a position yet: add liquidity (you’ll need some USDt).
- Toggle Get farm rewards to start farming in one transaction.
If you already have LP tokens, open the STON/USDt V2 pool and tap Farm.

Why it matters
- Dual utility, one action. By staking STON you don’t just get ARKENSTON (governance power) — you also unlock boosted farm APR. Over time this stacks into more predictable, compounding rewards without juggling extra tokens or apps.
- Future expandability. Boost Farm APR is designed for scaling. As additional pools join, your staked STON continues to unlock new earning routes with no extra overhead.
- Stickier liquidity, stronger markets. Boost Farm APR incentivizes long-term LP depth, which reduces slippage, improves price stability, and makes TON markets more welcoming for larger orders.
- Aligned incentives → healthier flywheel. Staking (governance) + farming (liquidity) = enduring participation, not mercenary TVL. That supports builders, improves execution for traders, and raises the baseline for all integrations.
- Governance with skin in the game. Decisions are shaped by stakers who also supply liquidity, leading to more responsible parameter changes and durable protocol growth over time.
Boost Farm APR turns STON into a long-term asset that governs, deepens liquidity, and enhances rewards — compounding value for committed users and reinforcing TON DeFi’s resilience year after year.

👀 Reminder: Always DYOR. Rewards depend on market conditions, your stake size, your farm liquidity, and the campaign budget. Always evaluate risk before providing liquidity or staking.
