The Infinity Pool is SaucerSwap’s single-sided staking system. Deposit SAUCE and you receive xSAUCE, a receipt token; the SAUCE-per-xSAUCE conversion rate started at 1:1 and rises over time as protocol revenue compounds into the pool. There is no lock-up schedule in the mechanism itself — you unstake by converting xSAUCE back to SAUCE at the current rate on the stake page. xSAUCE is itself an HTS token: it counts toward your governance voting power, earns tiered V3 trading fee discounts, and can be used elsewhere in the ecosystem (for example, in xSAUCE liquidity pools).
Diagram of SAUCE revenue sources compounding into the Infinity Pool and the xSAUCE conversion rate

Unified BrewSaucer routes 40% of purchased SAUCE to the Infinity Pool, raising the xSAUCE conversion rate.

​
Revenue-backed rewards

The Infinity Pool receives 40% of SAUCE purchased through Unified BrewSaucer. Those buybacks are funded by: The WHBAR contract’s HBAR balance is proxy-staked to a Hedera network node. Hedera native staking has no slashing or lock-up, so the balance remains available for wrapping and unwrapping. Check the WHBAR contract on HashScan for its current balance. Phase 1 ends the devcut contribution to xSAUCE: the 30% devcut tranche previously sent to Mothership is now sent to burn. Staking rewards therefore accrue from the revenue-funded buyback allocation, rather than that emission stream.

Worked example

1

First staker sets the 1:1 baseline

User A is the first participant. They deposit 10 SAUCE and receive 10 xSAUCE — the initial 1:1 ratio.
2

Revenue raises the rate

10 SAUCE from the pool’s share of revenue-funded buybacks is added to the pool. The pool now holds 20 SAUCE against 10 xSAUCE, so the rate is 1 xSAUCE = 2 SAUCE. User A could now redeem their 10 xSAUCE for 20 SAUCE.
3

New stakers enter at the current rate

User B deposits 10 SAUCE. At the 1:2 rate they receive 5 xSAUCE. The pool holds 30 SAUCE against 15 xSAUCE — the rate is unchanged. New stakers never dilute existing ones.
4

The rate keeps compounding

As more SAUCE revenue arrives, every xSAUCE is redeemable for progressively more SAUCE. Rewards accrue in the rate itself; there is nothing to claim.

​
Calculating APR

The staking APR shown in the app is derived from the growth of the conversion rate: Infinity Pool APR=(RfRi−1)×365\text{Infinity Pool APR} = \left( \frac{R_f}{R_i} - 1 \right) \times 365 where RR is the SAUCE/xSAUCE exchange rate, and RiR_i and RfR_f are the rates at the start and end of a one-day window. The rate updates once per day, so Δt≈24\Delta t \approx 24 hours. Because revenue varies day to day, displayed APR fluctuates; the stake page shows the averaging window it uses.
