Frequently Asked Questions

Getting Started

  • What is a wallet?
    Web3 wallet is a digital wallet used to access and store cryptocurrencies.  They also allow you to interact with Decentralised Finance protocols like Blüm Finance. These wallets allow you to take control of your assets through selfcustody. This means no one can access your funds without your approval. Selfcustody is very empowering but means you are fully responsible for the safe keeping of your wallet
  • How do I create a wallet to use Blüm Finance?
    The easiest way to create a wallet is to use your current social logins such as Google, Twitter, Facebook, and Discord.  You can also simply use your current email address and create a new password. For full details on creating a wallet and using Blüm Finance, check out  this short step-by-step instructional video.
  • What is a Stake Position?
    A stake position is created when you select an amount of crypto to invest along with a duration to invest it for.  The stake position is then locked for the duration you select as it earns a set APR.  After the lock duration, you can then redeem your initial investment plus the amount earned during the stake period. For example, if you create a stake position with 1 Bitcoin for 360 days at 23.32% APR, your 1 Bitcoin would be locked for 360 days as it earns 23.32% APR.  After 360 days, you would then be able to redeem your initial 1 Bitcoin PLUS the 23.32% APR earned (approximately 0.2332 Bitcoin) for a total of ~1.2332 Bitcoin. Once you create a stake position you cannot redeem it before the end of the lock period unless you pay a 50% early redemption fee. For more information on staking read our Terms of Service.
  • How do I create a Stake Position?
    Click on the “Earn” tab and you will be shown a list of available staking options.  Then simply select the crypto you’d like to stake, input the amount, and select the duration (90, 180, 270, or 360 days).  Voila, your stake has been created and you are now earning high yields on your selected crypto! Note that the first time you create a stake, you will need to click “Approve” and approve the transaction in your wallet. This is required the first time you interact with any DeFi (Decentralised Finance) application with a Web3 Wallet.
  • What cryptocurrencies can I stake and how much will I earn?
    With Blüm Finance, you can earn high yields on Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Coin, Polygon, and Avalanche.  We continue to expand our offerings and will have more tokens available soon! The longer the duration of your stake period, the more you will earn on your selected crypto. For the most current rates, visit our rates page.
  • Why is it asking me to “Approve” something when I create a stake?
    Blüm Finance is powered by smart contracts on BOMB Chain, our custom-built blockchain. This provides full transparency into everything occurring within the app and with the funds being staked.  As a result, you need to approve your wallet to interact with the smart contract in order to create the stake position and earn high yields. Note that this is only required once per wallet per coin, so creating additional stake positions will not require approving again.
  • Are there any risks?
    Blüm Finance is a decentralized finance (De-Fi) cryptocurrency staking service that operates on blockchain technology. We do everything we can to protect users but as with all blockchain-based applications Blüm Finance comes with certain risks that users should be aware of before using the service, including volatility of cryptocurrency prices, the risk of unidentified smart contract vulnerabilities, regulatory uncertainty, market liquidity and risks associated with generating rewards. Our Terms of Service provide lots of helpful and important information regarding these risks so please make sure to familiarise yourself with these before getting started.

  • How much can I earn on my stake positions?
    We offer different APRs depending on the crypto you choose to stake and the stake duration selected.

  • Can I end my stake position before the maturity date?
