Liquidity Mining FAQ

What is Sarcophagus?

It is a decentralized dead man's switch application built on Ethereum and Arweave, you can learn more about the project by visiting sarcophagus.io, or reading the litepaper.

What is SARCO?

SARCO is an ERC20 token with a fixed supply of 100,000,000. More information on the SARCO token can be found at sarcophagus.io/sarco_token.html the token is used exclusively by the parties interacting with the dApp.

What is liquidity mining?

The process of locking stablecoins into a contract for a period of time, forgoing the opportunity of time-value yield for those stablecoins in exchange for a proportional emission of SARCO tokens.

How long will this last?

The Sarcophagus liquidity mining contract will last one year, and 1,000,000 SARCO tokens will be emitted.

How are the SARCO tokens emitted?

The contract specifies that 1,000,000 SARCO tokens will be emitted equally, per second, to the owners of the stablecoins in the contract. The distribution curve is linear, meaning the exact same number of tokens will be emitted per second on day 0 and day 364. You can see the value by looking at the "SARCO Per Second" metric.

What stablecoins are accepted?

The contract will accept USDC, USDT, and DAI. These stablecoins represent the vast majority of stablecoins in the market by volume and market cap. These coins are only accepted through the functions shown on this page, any other attempt to lock tokens using custom methods should be done at your own risk.

How do I lock my stablecoins?

First, connect your web3 wallet containing the tokens you wish to lock. Input the amount of each accepted stablecoins you wish to lock in their respective fields; making sure there are zeros in the fields you do not wish to lock. You will then be asked to "Approve" these stablecoins by your wallet. Once this approval is complete you will be able to click on the "Lock my Stablecoins" button. After the transaction is confirmed, you will see your address's current totals in the lower right section.

When can I unlock my stablecoins?

Any time you want. All tokens are 100% liquid and can be locked, unlocked and claimed at any time.

How do I unlock my stablecoins?

Simply click the "Unlock my Stablecoins" button and confirm the transaction on your wallet. This function will unlock all of the stablecoins you have locked, and will also automatically claim all SARCO that has been emitted to you.

How do I claim the SARCO that has been emitted but also keep my stablecoins locked?

Use the "Claim my SARCO" function. This will require a transaction from your wallet and the SARCO tokens will be unlocked. You will need to add a "custom token" in metamask to see it in your wallet (instructions here). The token address to use is: 0x7697B462A7c4Ff5F8b55BDBC2F4076c2aF9cF51A and can be verified on Etherscan.

What gas settings should I use?

It is suggested that you use the "high" presets on MetaMask, or to visit ethgasstation.info and use the "fast" price.
