PIG PEN is the Animal Farm Governance Staking Pool, which allows holders of AFP to secure common ownership of the Animal Farm platform.

This includes BUSD & PIGS dividends generated by Farms&Pools deposit/withdrawal fees, taxes levied on DOGS transactions, and returns generated by credit and PIGGY BANK fees.

# Vesting Mechanic

When we develop logical structures for our products, we look not only at what works in DeFi , but also in traditional markets.

AFP which have been staked in the PIG PEN represent a share ownership of the animal farm platform. This includes a share of all platform fees and a governance protocol which allows them to vote on the future of the platform.

Due to the important role that PIG PEN stakers play for the platform, as well as the huge dividend payouts they receive, it is important that a vesting protocol is implemented on the principal of PIG PEN stakers

Just as in traditional markets company shares often vest to ensure that owners operate for the long-term benefit of the platform, we have implemented a 50 DAYS vesting period for AFP principal staked in the PIG PEN.

This 50 DAYS vesting period works in such a way that 2% of the staker's capital is available for retire every day, so that after 50 DAYS effectively 100% of the capital can be withdraw out.


# The PIG PEN Dividend Vault

# Burn Mechanism

We have implemented a burn mechanism that reduces the total supply in real time as tokens are transacted, as opposed to sending tokens to a 0x000 burn address.

  • 3% of the Sales Tax on DOGS
  • The FULL sales tax (3%) on PIGS

This mechanism actually removes the tokens from the total supply and provides more accurate data about our tokens on sites like CoinMarketCap and DexTools.


# PIGS Tax explained

Tax on the PIGS token only applies when you want to:

  • Sell AFP
  • Pair AFP/BUSD LP on external DEX
  • Transact with a non-native staking contract

All the fees of AFP are burned by removing tokens from the total supply.
