Calculating Boosts

When activating a boost in Zekret, your earning potential is significantly enhanced by the boost multiplier, which currently stands at 5x. This multiplier increases the rate at which you accumulate Zekret Points (ZP) for the portion of your assets that are boosted.

Boost Multiplier: The boost multiplier of 5x means that your boosted assets accumulate ZP at five times the normal rate.

Boosted Amount Calculation: The actual amount of your deposit that you choose to boost is enhanced by the multiplier to determine your total effective ZP earning rate from the boosted assets.

Total Earning Power: The overall earning power is calculated by adding your unboosted deposit to the effective stake from your boosted assets.

Example of Boost Calculation:

Suppose you deposit 1,000 FI into a pool and decide to boost 200 FI with a 5x multiplier:

Your unboosted deposit remains at 800 FI.

The boosted 200 FI is multiplied by the 5x multiplier, resulting in an effective stake of 1,000 FI (200 FI x 5).

Therefore, your total effective staking power is 1,800 FI (800 unboosted + 1,000 boosted)

This setup means you earn ZP as if you had a total deposit of 1,800 FI, maximizing your reward potential.

Please note that while your earning power increases, the actual amount available for withdrawal remains the original unboosted portion of your deposit, ensuring a balance between liquidity provision and reward maximization.
