KyberSwap is a next-gen DEX aggregator and liquidity protocol that achieves the best rates for traders through liquidity aggregation, while providing capital-efficient and higher returns for liquidity providers via amplified pools and dynamic fees.

Kyber has been increasing both the number and liquidity of key token-pair pools on KyberSwap. One of our key initiatives is working with very promising projects such as Sipher to incentivize users and boost liquidity together!

Sipher Collaboration with $50M in Rewards

These joint initiatives with popular projects on Ethereum continue with a whopping ~$50M+ liquidity mining campaign with Sipher — one of the biggest GameFi campaigns ever!

Sipher is a MOBA and Exploration Game with an end-game goal of creating an Open World Social Game. Based on ERC-721, the 1st collection of 10,000 characters, Sipherian Surge, belongs to the SIPHER INU race, with more races to be added over time. Sipher recently raised $6.8M in a private sale and over $44M in a public sale.

Sipher’s Vision:

SIPHER Token: $SIPHER is the token at the center of Sipheria, serving important functions like the creation of new characters, payment of market transaction fees, allowing the purchase of specialty items, and more. However, its functions extend beyond that. $SIPHER will provide players with a unique opportunity to participate in the governance of the game, helping shape the future of Sipheria.

KyberSwap allows $SIPHER LPs to maximise the use of capital via:

Amplified Liquidity Pools with extremely high capital efficiency; less tokens required to achieve better liquidity and rates compared to AMMs.
Dynamic Fees that react to market conditions and optimize returns for LPs.
Better Reliability & Security: Audited by ChainSecurity and insured up to $20M by Unslashed Finance.

Add liquidity on KyberSwap now!

Trade at the Best Rates on KyberSwap

KyberSwap guarantees much better rates on Ethereum for $SIPHER traders compared to trading on individual DEXs. This is possible via Dynamic Trade Routing which aggregates liquidity from multiple DEXs, including our own capital-efficient KyberSwap pools!

Liquidity providers can now add any amount of liquidity to the eligible SIPHER-ETH pool on KyberSwap on Ethereum to get liquidity provider (LP) tokens and unlock their share of the $50M in liquidity mining rewards over the next two months.

KNC rewards received can be added on KNC liquidity pools or KyberDAO for additional KNC rewards or on KrystalGO for their token sale allocations.

How to Farm $SIPHER and $KNC

Visit KyberSwap.com
Make sure you are on the Ethereum network and have some ETH tokens for gas transaction fees on Ethereum.

3. Visit the Pools page and add liquidity (deposit SIPHER + ETH tokens) into the eligible SIPHER-ETH pool, which has a green raindrop 💧 icon. You will receive Liquidity Provider (LP) tokens representing your pool share after you add liquidity.

4. Next, go to the Farm page and click Approve on the SIPHER-ETH farm. Once approved, stake your LP tokens on the SIPHER-ETH farm.

You can just click MAX if you want to stake all your LP tokens. You will receive a new Kyber Staked LP Token or SLP that represents your staked LP position.

5. For KNC rewards, you will start receiving them immediately on KyberSwap.com (after the start time of ~12:00PM GMT+7 14/12/2021), and they can be harvested anytime.

6. Yield farming SIPHER rewards is a little more special. After staking your LP tokens, you will receive another Kyber Staked LP (SLP) token representing your staked SIPHER LP position. This special token can then be deposited on the Sipher portal https://sipher.xyz/stake/deposit/kyber-slp-sipher-eth to generate SIPHER rewards, which also have to be claimed there.

~$50M in liquidity incentives will be distributed in total!

Visit the Sipher portal: https://sipher.xyz/stake/deposit/kyber-slp-sipher-eth, connect your wallet and APPROVE your tokens for staking. Choose between the Flexible or Locked option. Stake your Kyber SLP tokens there to start earning SIPHER rewards!

More details here: https://medium.com/sipherxyz/sipher-staking-instructions-b96d900a5d5c

7. After receiving KNC rewards on KyberSwap, you can Harvest your KNC rewards whenever you want. When you harvest KNC rewards, a 14-day vesting period starts, with rewards unlocking at every block.

8. Go to the Vesting tab to claim rewards once they are unlocked. Claim all unlocked KNC rewards after the vesting period of 14 days. Unlocked rewards can be claimed anytime.

9. For SIPHER rewards, they have to be claimed on the Sipher portal https://sipher.xyz/stake/deposit/kyber-slp-sipher-eth. Remember, to generate SIPHER rewards, you need to have first staked your Kyber SLP tokens (the new token you receive when you stake KyberSwap LP tokens on the KyberSwap farm) on the Sipher portal.

10. To Remove liquidity: First unstake your LP tokens on the KyberSwap Farm page, then go to the My Pools page to view and remove your liquidity position. For more details, read this guide on how to remove liquidity.

As mentioned above, KNC rewards received can be staked on KNC pools or KyberDAO for additional KNC rewards or on KrystalGO for exclusive Token Sale allocations.
