# Vault

70,000 $SGLDM emitted over 2 years/24 months. After the 2 years, the DAO rewards long-term participants by paying out rewards in Vault.

The Vault, also known as the "farms", is where you provide and stake tokens, and it begins with Genesis Pools. Our genesis pools will be open for 4 days and you receive $GLDM for participating, after that the emissions of $SGLDM begin and that is what you will start to earn.

For the first 24 hours after genesis, there are only two ways to participate in our Vault, this is by staking $GLDM tokens. Specifically, we incentivize creating/forming LP pairs ($GLDM/$PAXG). You will receive a bigger portion of the Vault rewards (higher APR) by staking $GLDM/$PAXG LP, but if you wish to test how the protocol works then you will be able to stake your earned $GLDM tokens from genesis in a single stake pool. This pool will receive a lower portion of rewards compared to the LP pool (lower APR). Though in certain cases, like when the price drops, the rewards in that single stake pool may be higher to incentivize buying more $GLDM from the open market to help push the price back to peg.

After the first 24 hours, the $SGLDM/$PAXG pool will be available in the Vault where you can start earning more $SGLDM. There will also be a $BGLDM pool that will have an incentive to participate if the price of $GLDM drops below the peg. This is to provide a yield to those taking the risks of purchasing bonds. These will be our main and only pools available to farm in for the 2 years.&#x20;

These pools will all have different "weights" to them, this is the percentage amount of $SGLDM tokens that are allocated to these different pools. Changing pool weights will affect APR and can be changed anytime by the team to help push and incentivize different strategies.
