StakingRewards.com is a website that provides information on staking opportunities for different cryptocurrencies. It helps investors to understand the potential rewards, risks, and mechanisms of staking different digital assets. 

Bifrost is being integrated into StakingRewards.com, which means users can access and use Bifrost's staking features through the website. This integration will enhance the website's functionality and value proposition, offering users the convenience of managing their staking activities in one place.

The partnership aims to increase staking participation across Bifrost's listed assets and protocols, which will benefit both parties. StakingRewards.com will receive a commission rate set at 50% of the protocol's commission.

The integration is planned for several vTokens, including vBNC, vDOT, vKSM, vGLMR, vMOVR, vETH, vMANTA, vASTR, and vPHA (not live yet).

StakingRewards.com can support Bifrost's growth and community through increased visibility, website metrics, social media outreach, education and awareness, seamless staking experience, and data and analytics.

Not Receiving vMANTA Tokens After Staking MANTA on Omni.ls

Trouble about your real yield  or about rewards directly

1. Bifrost treasury wants to add more BNC deposit into HydraDX Omnipool to increase on-chain liquidity.
2. The proposed amount is 1.216M BNC ($639.3k), which is 5.8% of the treasury.
3. The current BNC treasury deposit in the Omnipool is $360,665, and increasing it to $1M or 2.3% of FDV is the goal.
4. Increasing BNC liquidity on-chain can support larger money markets for BNC and enable another use case for BNC hodlers.
5. The proposal puts to use "Treasury Owned Liquidity," which can earn fees, add token use cases, deepen liquidity, and have no listing fee or recurring costs for market making or LM.

SubSquare is a platform where people can suggest new ideas for cryptocurrency mining. Here is a summary of a recent suggestion:

- Someone suggested creating a new mining pool for two different cryptocurrencies called vPha and vManta.
- The rewards for mining vPha and staking vManta would be given out to users of the pool.
- To encourage people to use the new pool, the suggestion included a proposal to offer a big reward for one month or less.
- The suggestion also mentioned a way to link two different networks called Khala and Phala, and another way to link to a network called Manta.
- The suggestion said that people should be able to start using the new pool 15 days before it officially launches.

ADD vPHA/vMANTA POOL 

1. Someone is suggesting that we put all our assets together with BNC to earn more interest.
2. They wanted to transfer ASTR to BNC but there wasn't a pool available.
3. They propose creating new pools for BNC/FIL, BNC/ASTR, BNC/GLMR, BNC/vDOT, and BNC/USDT.
4. Adding more pools is not currently inspiring people to deposit assets and the slippage fee is high.
5. The proposal aims to solve this problem and make it easier to transfer assets between different cryptocurrencies.

Pool all current and future assets with BNC?

SubSquare's post talks about making it easier to use cryptocurrency for transactions. They discuss a problem they faced when trying to swap one type of cryptocurrency for another. They explain that currently, they have to go through multiple steps to make the swap, which can be time-consuming and expensive. They propose a solution to reduce the number of steps involved in the process by allowing people to pay their fees in any token. This would make it easier and faster to make transactions using cryptocurrency.

Be able to pay for "swap fees" with any asset.
