Earning
Three seats at the table: provide liquidity, stake MOTO, stake Motocats.
You get three seats at the table. Liquidity earns the biggest cut of every swap, MOTO staking pays you a share of every fee, and staked Motocats multiply your Points. Launch farming ran for 14 days at token launch and paid MOTO on top of that; it has ended, and there is no new farm.
Provide liquidity
Deposit both tokens of a pair at equal value. Liquidity providers on Motoswap earn the 0.30% trading fee on every swap in their pool, the largest slice of the 1% fee, split pro-rata by your share. It accrues into the pool, so your position grows with every trade and pays out when you remove. No lock. Your position also earns Points on the fees it generates.
Want in with one token? The Zap on any pool page converts half and hands you the LP in one transaction.
The first provider in a new pair sets the starting price from the ratio deposited. The app warns you when you are first; match the ratio to what the tokens are worth.
Impermanent loss
If the two tokens' prices move apart, withdrawing can be worth less than having held them in your wallet. That gap is real money, not a display artifact.
Launch farming (ended)
Launch farming has ended. It ran for 14 days after MOTO launched, paying flat rewards to Uniswap LP and MOTO staked in the launch farm. Harvests paid 50% liquid on the spot and streamed the other 50% over 180 days; the stream still sits on your profile, claimable as it unlocks.
If you still have LP in a launch farm, withdraw it on the Farm page. Your LP is safe and stays yours. There is no new farm: liquidity you provide on Motoswap earns trading fees only, covered above under Provide liquidity.
Stake MOTO
MOTO is the ecosystem token: a fixed 10B supply, bought back and burned by the swap fee. Staking it puts you on the other side of every trade: 0.20% of every swap goes to stakers, paid in the assets the fees were taken in, not emissions. $10M of weekly volume means stakers split $20,000 of cash. Slow week, smaller pot. There is no schedule underneath, only the fee flow.
You pick a lock when you stake. The longer you lock, the more weight your stake carries, so the larger your share of the same pot. Claim rewards any time, even locked. Unstaking streams your MOTO back over 30 days, claimable as it arrives.
Stake Motocats
Staked Motocats multiply the Points you earn on every swap. More cats, more boost. A cat sitting in your wallet does nothing; the boost turns on when you stake.
One collection approval, then stake and unstake any number of cats in one transaction, whenever you want. No lockup, no fee, no cap. Staked cats also collect a share of every PvE launch; that side of the story lives on the Motocats page.
