We’ve launched a new program for STON token stakers — Boost Farm APR that rewards users who stake STON and farm in the STORM/TON pool.
| In #STONchronicles we share the technical breakthroughs and product milestones that showcase our commitment to building the future of DeFi on TON. |
Boost Farm APR is our next step toward “simple on the surface, powerful behind the scenes.” It fuses staking and farming into one compounding flywheel: stake STON to govern and simultaneously unlock boosted APR in a partner farm. The result is deeper, stickier liquidity (lower price impact, steadier markets), clearer long-term value for stakers, and a healthier incentives layer for builders to plug into. In other words: fewer hoops for users, stronger liquidity for TON, and a rewards system that scales as the ecosystem grows.
What’s new: Boost Farm APR for STON stakers
We want DeFi on TON to feel rewarding without being complicated. Boost Farm APR multiplies your APR in a partner farm if you also stake STON. The partner farm for now is STORM/TON.
Boost Farm APR isn’t just a promo, it’s 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 STORM/TON pool. As we expand the program, additional pools may become eligible — stay tuned.
How it works
- If you stake STON and farm STORM/TON 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.
Why it matters
For users
- 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 to extend beyond STORM/TON. As additional pools join, your staked STON continues to unlock new earning routes with no extra overhead.
For the ecosystem
- 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 from “a token you stake” 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.
