# Pools

**Earn $GIVE Tokens while staking your favourite tokens!**

**BCHARITY’s pools are one of the easiest ways to start earning rewards:**

* Stake. 
* Profit. 
* Repeat! 

**No messin' about with impermanent loss, selling half the rewards or pairing. Simple, effective and safe!** 

## **How it Works**

Pools are a tool where users can stake their other crypto-currency in exchange for BCharity Tokens. These tokens can include but are not limited to $GIVE TOKENs

### **Calculations**

Say you deposit $1000 of Bitcoin:

$1000 \* 3% = $30 fee

So you are really depositing $1000 - $30 = $970

$970 \* 0.20% (daily ROI) = earn $1.94 per day

At this rate, $30 / $1.94 ≈ 15 days are required to breakeven

This means that with the current ROI, if you were to deposit $1000 of Bitcoin into this pool, it will take approximately 15 days before you breakeven, after that you will start generating a profit. 

**\*** Note that the ROI numbers will fluctuate!

## **Pool Fee**

Some pools have deposit fees--always check before staking!

Fees from pools are distributed as follows:

* 50% goes to the burning vault. 
* 20% as the direct burning fee. 
* 30% for marketing and development**.**
