Step 1: Connect your Wallet ‍

Login with either your Blocto or Lilico wallet at https://app.increment.fi/dashboard. Blocto requires your email to sign in/register and then a one time passcode will be sent to your email. If you’re a frequent Blocto user, it may automatically connect‍

‍

Step 2: Supply‍

You can deposit your fungible tokens and earn interest on them. To do so, choose the token market (currently $FLOW, $FUSD, $USDC, $BLT), click the ‘Supply’ button, follow the prompts and confirm the transaction. Current APR is 5.8% on $FLOW with $136k supplied

‍
Step 2.5: Why deposit‍

Some of you may wonder why deposit when staking may give a higher APR?
‍

- dynamic interest rate

- instant liquidity (Increment Earn suppliers can withdraw at will as long as there’s enough liquidity in the pool)

- deposits grant the ability to borrow

Step 3: Borrow‍

Supplied funds can be used as collateral to borrow other fungible tokens. Click ‘Borrow’, follow the prompts and confirm the transaction. Note the higher the percentage of borrow limit is used, the closer to liquidation your account is.

‍

Step 4.5 Why borrow

- Take necessary cash without selling

- Leverage-long

- Short-sell a token to take profit

- Earn $MyToken without holding Flow

- Participate a launchpad with no BLT exposure

Step 5: Withdraw your funds

If you want to withdraw you can do so any time with interest accruing in real time on a per-block basis. To withdraw, click the ‘Redeem’ button, follow the prompts and confirm the transaction.
