Please note that we are still refining our UI including more precise unlock durations and a possible countdown.
Changed your mind during the lock staking duration? No problem. You can always extend the time of your locked SELF by simply clicking "Extend" and choose how much time you want to add on top of the initial lock duration. Remember, the longer you lock, the higher your yield will be boosted. The maximum locking duration is 52 weeks.
A user's new extended lock duration = initial lock duration + added duration
Example:
A user staked 1,438.45 SELF in fixed-term staking with an initial lock duration of 10 weeks on 7th May 2022.
On 18th June 2022 (6 weeks later, 4 weeks until the user's SELF unlocks), the user decides they want to add 5 weeks to their lock duration.
1. Navigate to the SELF Syrup Pool and click Extend.

2. Select the duration you would like to add (5 weeks in this example).
Note that your new lock duration will equal your initial lock duration of 10 weeks plus the added 5 weeks for a new lock duration of 15 weeks.

3. Double-check to make sure you are okay with the new extended lock duration and click Confirm.
Please note that you can not shorten the locking period nor withdraw your SELF prematurely.
You can easily do that by renewing your fixed-term staking position. Simply click "Add SELF" and choose how much SELF you want to deposit.
Please note that adding more SELF to an existing lock resets your staking term based on the remaining lock duration, essentially “renewing” your fixed-term staking position. This results in a lower yield boost because your new lock duration is lower than your initial lock duration.
Example:
A user staked 1,438.45 SELF in fixed-term staking with an initial lock duration of 10 weeks on 7th May 2022.
On 18th June 2022 (6 weeks later, 4 weeks until the user's SELF unlocks), the user decides they want to add 100 SELF to locked balance.
1. Navigate to the SELF Syrup Pool and click Add SELF.

2. Select the amount of SELF you would like to add to your locked balance (for this example, we are adding 100 SELF which is our max wallet balance). Note that your yield boost is lower than the initial yield boost because it is calculated using a 4 week lock duration instead of the initial 10 week lock duration.

2.1. Alternatively, users can check the box next to "Renew and extend your lock to keep similar benefits." to maintain a similar yield boost setting the lock duration equal to the initial lock duration (in this example, 10 weeks).
