#Claim as ETH or Compound
Rewards accrue in ETH. A claim takes everything earned and pays it in one of two modes. Nothing is paid until you claim, and rewards never expire.
| Mode | A claim | Contract call |
|---|---|---|
| ETH | Sends all earned ETH to your wallet | claim() |
| Compound | Buys $KYZN with all earned ETH and adds it to your stake | claimCompound(uint256 minKyznOut) |
Compound buys from the $KYZN/WETH pool through Uniswap v2’s Router02. Staking is exempt from the tax, so all of the ETH buys $KYZN. The $KYZN bought joins your stake at once and earns from that second.
The Compound minimum
A Compound claim names the fewest $KYZN it accepts, minKyznOut. If the pool delivers less, the claim reverts and nothing is paid. The app sets that minimum from a quote it reads before you claim.
| In the app | Rule |
|---|---|
| Quote | Router02’s quote for everything claimable |
| Minimum | The quote less your price-impact tolerance |
| Tolerance | An app setting: 1.0% unless you change it, from 0.0% to 50.0% |
| A stale quote | Read again before sending, when older than 30 seconds or when rewards grew past it by more than the tolerance |
Chip equity
The contract holds a third payout mode, chip equity. It buys NVDA or AMD with rewards, through a swap target the Reserve allows, in the Reserve’s purchase window and within its 98.5% price bound (How the Reserve buys). It sits behind an owner switch, and the app does not offer it: the app claims as ETH or Compound.
#Changing the mode
Your payout mode is recorded in the Staking contract, per wallet. It starts as ETH.
- 01Open RewardsIn the app, open Rewards. It shows your claimable ETH and the mode on record.
- 02Choose a modePick ETH or Compound. When it differs from the mode on record, the button reads Set payout to Compound or Set payout to ETH.
- 03Record itPress it and confirm one transaction,
setPayoutMode. It costs gas only. - 04ClaimThe button then claims in that mode: Claim as ETH or Claim as Compound.
Changing the mode moves no ETH. Rewards already earned stay earned, and each claim pays in the mode it uses.
