* Yay! Gold: Your Yay! Gold balance remains in the wallet where it was earned.

<summary>I staked with a referral code but I haven't received any referral rewards</summary>

Each referral code is only eligible to give referral rewards to the first 50 users who enter the code AND stake.

There may be a case where a referral code reaches the 50 referral limit while you are entering the referral code and staking. In this case, referral rewards will not apply.&#x20;

<summary>What devices does the Yay! Staking Dashboard support? </summary>

The Dashboard is now supported on mobile devices; however, for the best experience and optimal functionality, we still recommend accessing our site from a desktop.

</details>

<details>

<summary>How are Yay! Gold and ???? point calculated?</summary>

Points are calculated hourly, using the the following two steps:

1. Vault allocation is determined based on the amount of ETH staked in that vault&#x20;

&#x20;       Formula: vault allocation = 1,200 Yay! Gold \* % of total ETH staked in vault

&#x20;       Formula: vault allocation = 375 ???? points\* % of total ETH staked in vault

2. User allocation is determined for distribution&#x20;

&#x20;       Formula: user allocation = vault allocation \* % of user staking token holdings&#x20;



</details>

<details>

<summary>Why has my staked ETH amount decreased after staking in the Kelp Vault via the Yay! Dashboard?</summary>

The initial decrease in your staked ETH amount is due to the weekly calculation of management fees (2% per annum) and interest by Kelp Vault, which occurs on different days. Sometimes, the management fee may be deducted before the interest is applied, causing a temporary decrease in your staked amount. However, since the interest rate is designed to exceed the management fee over time, it is expected that your staked ETH amount will gradually increase. Please note that this increase is not guaranteed, and results may vary.

For more details, please refer to[ Kelp](https://kelpdao.xyz/gain/airdrop-gain/).

</details>

<details>

<summary>How long will it take for my staked ETH amount to potentially surpass the original amount for Kelp staking?</summary>

According to Kelp DAO, the staked ETH amount is expected to increase over time as interest accrues. Although Kelp DAO estimates that the staked amount could surpass the original staked amount within 2-3 weeks from the staking start date, this is not guaranteed and depends on various factors, including market conditions and the timing of interest and fee calculations.

<summary>When should I use the Redeem feature?</summary>

The Redeem feature is ideal if you want to convert your yaySTONE to Stone, yayAgETH to AgETH, or yayASTR to nsASTR instead of fully unstaking to ETH.

* Redeem Process: Comparing to unstaking, this conversion is instant. With Redeem feature, you will receive Stone, agETH, or nsASTR right after redeeming.

</details>

<details>

<summary>What happens to my points when I Redeem?</summary>



The impact on your rewards after redeeming depends on the protocol you’re using. We recommend reviewing the specific regulations for each protocol before proceeding.&#x20;

For Yay! rewards, here are a few key points:

• Yay! Gold: Your Yay! Gold balance remains in the wallet where it was earned.

• ???? Point: **After January 16th, 15:00 JST**, redeeming will no longer reset your accumulated ???? Points to zero.

Please note that you will stop earning both Yay! Gold and ???? Points If you redeem all your liquid staking tokens.
