4 min readSep 30, 2021

Today, we are glad to announce that FARMS function enabled in 19:00 on Sept 30th UTC!! The PKEX Yield Farming program will reward liquidity providers (LPs) of the PKEX/USDC trading pair on Uniswap.

Introduction

Token holders who provide liquidity to our trading pair on Uniswap v2 will be able to earn PKEX tokens via the FARMS UI.

A total of 15,000,000 tokens will be for farming rewards that are 15% of the total supply of PKEX.
The FARMS will have multiple pools, the first round will reward 300,000 PKEX for 30 days with an average of 10,000 PKEX rewarded to PKEX/USDC Uniswap LPs per day!!
The initial APR: Over 3,000,000%
More farming options will be added in the near future.

The motivation for incentivizing liquidity into the Uniswap pools is to promote healthier liquidity in the ecosystem. Liquidity providers (LPs) will share the rewards proportionally according to their liquidity provision percentage.

Before you can add liquidity, you need to approve the tokens, click “Approve” and confirm the transaction.
After the ‘add’ transaction has been confirmed, you can find and manage your new positions on the ‘Pool’ page, and you will receive Uniswap LP tokens.
