Overview

The ARMA 15% APR Distribution System implements a proactive reward mechanism that guarantees users receive a fixed 15% Annual Percentage Rate (APR). When your wallet's performance falls below the 15% target, you automatically receive $GIZA tokens to compensate for the difference.

The system operates on a weekly schedule with distributions every Monday. Token snapshots are taken at 11:00 AM UTC, and rewards are made available at 4:00 PM UTC the same day. You can choose to receive tokens directly to your wallet or have them automatically staked on your behalf.

APR Calculation Methodology

To calculate the APR for each wallet, we analyze the complete performance history during the analysis period, dividing it into sub-periods based on deposits made since each new deposit changes the capital base. For each sub-period, we calculate the return using:

Sub-period Return = (End_Value / Start_Value) - 1

We then compound all sub-period returns and annualize the result:

APR = [(1 + Total_Return)^(1/Time_Years) - 1] × 100

This approach ensures precise measurement of each wallet's actual performance, properly accounting for deposit timing.

Setting the 15% APR Target

We compare each wallet's current APR against our 15% annualized target. Only active wallets at the end of each period, performing below 15% APR, are eligible for compensation tokens, ensuring all active participants have the opportunity to be part of the campaign.

Calculating Compensation Tokens

We calculate the difference between what each wallet's value should be at 15% APR versus its actual value. This "performance deficit" is compensated with tokens at current market price:

Target Value = P₀ × (1 + 0.15)^t + Σ(Dᵢ × (1 + 0.15)^(tᵢ))
Tokens Needed = (target_value - actual_value) / token_price

Where:

  • P₀ is initial capital
  • Dᵢ are deposits
  • t represents time in years

Example Calculation

A wallet starts with $1,000 on Day 1 and adds $500 on Day 3 during a 7-day analysis period (token_price = $0.11):

  1. Initial $1,000 grows for 7 days: 
    $1,000 × (1 + 0.15)^(7/365) = $1,003
  2. Additional $500 grows for 4 days: 
    $500 × (1 + 0.15)^(4/365) = $501
  3. Target Value: 
    Target_Value = $1,003 + $501 = $1,504
  4. Compensation Calculation: 
    If Actual_Value = $1,501
Tokens_Needed = ($1,504 - $1,501) / $0.11 = 27 tokens

Distribution Process

Weekly Schedule

The distribution follows a consistent weekly timeline:

  • Monday 11:00 AM UTC: Block snapshot is taken for calculations
  • Monday 11:00 AM - 4:00 PM UTC: API calculations and transaction preparation
  • Monday 4:00 PM UTC: Rewards become available for distribution

How You Receive Rewards

You have two options for receiving your compensation tokens:

  1. Direct Transfer: Tokens are sent directly to your EOA wallet address
  2. Automatic Staking: Tokens are automatically staked on your behalf for additional rewards

You can configure your preference through the ARMA interface.
