The Vulcan Bank: A Gamified Single Staking Solution. Stake $LAVA
[[File:Lavabank_location2.jpg|right|300px]]The [[Vulcan Forged]] '''LAVA Bank''' is a building in Vulcan City, [[VulcanVerse]], that allows holders of a LAVA Ledger [[NFT]] to stake cold [[LAVA]] through one of three plans and earn an Annual Percentage Yield (APY).


==Background and Lore==
[[File:Lavabank_location.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Location of the LAVA Bank in Vulcan City]]The Vulcan City LAVA Bank is the first and at present, only bank within VulcanVerse, Vulcan Forged's blockchain MMORPG. Seated in the Vulcan City LAVA Bank is the Governor, a Kobaloi [[NPC]] by the name of '''Robafella'''. VulcanVerse lore tells us that others call Robafella 'the Gobernator' and that Robafella began his career as a thieving Kobaloi in the Mountains of Boreas quadrant of VulcanVerse, where he hit on the idea of lending his stolen money to other Kobaloi and charging interest on it.

Over time, his 'Bank of ‘Goblin’ it All Up’ did so well he expanded into Vulcan City itself. Realising he needed a more respectable name that non-Kobaloi could trust, he renamed it the 'Bank of Vulcan City', and took out some insurance with the Temple of Poseidon so he could officially call it a PLC(1).

The Governor of the Bank of Vulcan City is a greedy little Kobaloi called Robafella. Others call him the Gobernator.
 
==The Governor==
Robafella began his career as just another thieving Kobaloi in Boreas. But instead of spending all his stolen cash on beer, fine foods and Kobalettas, like everyone else, Robafella hit on the idea of lending his stolen money to other Kobaloi and charging interest on it.

Lavabank location2.jpg

The Vulcan Forged LAVA Bank is a building in Vulcan City, VulcanVerse, that allows holders of a LAVA Ledger NFT to stake cold LAVA through one of three plans and earn an Annual Percentage Yield (APY).

Background and Lore

Location of the LAVA Bank in Vulcan City

The Vulcan City LAVA Bank is the first and at present, only bank within VulcanVerse, Vulcan Forged's blockchain MMORPG. Seated in the Vulcan City LAVA Bank is the Governor, a Kobaloi NPC by the name of Robafella. VulcanVerse lore tells us that others call Robafella 'the Gobernator' and that Robafella began his career as a thieving Kobaloi in the Mountains of Boreas quadrant of VulcanVerse, where he hit on the idea of lending his stolen money to other Kobaloi and charging interest on it.

Over time, his 'Bank of ‘Goblin’ it All Up’ did so well he expanded into Vulcan City itself. Realising he needed a more respectable name that non-Kobaloi could trust, he renamed it the 'Bank of Vulcan City', and took out some insurance with the Temple of Poseidon so he could officially call it a PLC(1).

As soon as you enter the Bank of Vulcan City, you will see Robafella, the goblin bank Governor ready to assist you. You will need the limited Vulcan LAVA Ledger NFT to use the Vulcan City bank services.

Vulcan Ledger NFT

In order to use Vulcan City’s bank services, you need a Lava Ledger NFT. This NFT can be activated on My Forge on the LAVA Bank page right here.

On this page you can learn about the profit you made, the plans you participated in, the number of slots left on your Vulcan LAVA Ledger, and more. You can activate multiple ledgers if you want to add additional staking slots.

What is Cold LAVA?

The Vulcan bank will use your ‘cold LAVA’ stored on My Forge. Cold LAVA is an off-chain version of LAVA. You can check your cold LAVA holdings in My Forge - users should make sure they have enough funds available before staking LAVA in the Vulcan bank.

PYR and LAVA (also known as hot LAVA, see cold LAVA above) are the primary blockchain tokens used within the Vulcan ecosystem. LAVA is the play-to-earn gaming token and powers the Elysium blockchain. All the LAVA you earn playing the Vulcan Forged ecosystem games is cold LAVA. If you stake PYR, you will also receive cold LAVA. The Vulcan bank will only allow cold LAVA to be staked, as this is the in-game currency.

To summarize:

LAVA token = on-chain blockchain-powered token.

Cold LAVA = off-chain token. It can be converted into Hot LAVA tokens 1:1.

LAVA Staking Program

Your in-game asset manager at the Vulcan City bank will offer several staking solutions. To become eligible for the staking program, you must own the limited Vulcan LAVA Ledger NFT. You will be able to stake LAVA to earn an APY through one of the following plans:

Flexible Plan: ‘The Thesmophoria’, 5%

1 Month Lock Plan: ‘The Pandia’, 8%

3 Month Lock Plan: ‘The Heracleia’, 14%

Lavabank7.jpg
Lavabank8.jpg

The minimum amount of cold LAVA is 100 for each lock.

The maximum amount of locks for each Vulcan Ledger is 5.

Be careful when staking multiple plans, as you can only use 5 slots.

Interest will be paid out weekly. For the Flexible Plan, a user can withdraw or use LAVA any time they want. However, withdrawing your funds before the end of the running week will void the current week’s payment. So if a user withdraws from the Flexible Plan on day 6 of the first week, they receive nothing. If they withdraw on day 13, they will have received the first week’s payment but will not receive the interest for the second week.
