Rewards providers are external protocols/partners or Folks Finance itself (issuing rewards in the form of its governance token), that wish to distribute rewards on a specific protocol pool for Lock & Earn deposits, and interest repayments. Any party approved by Folks Finance can act as a provider and distribute tokens as rewards.

Let's see an example:

  1. Protocol A decided to distribute its token named AToken, as a reward for those users who interact with the ALGO Pool.

  2. Users who deposit ALGO in to Lock & Earn or repay interest on ALGO loans will receive frALGO.

  3. Now the user can trade the frALGO with ATokens. They can choose whether make an instant swap and obtain the ATokens immediately, or lock the frALGO for a vesting period and obtain a larger amount of ATokens.

Reward tokens are selected and whitelisted on the basis of strict requirements in order to guarantee distribution of the best crypto-assets to users of Folks Finance. In the future, Folks Finance Governance will take on this decision.

If you have never held the reward tokens, you will be asked to them. Thus, click on Opt-in.
