# Rules for Staking and Unstaking of Closed-End Fund

## Staking & Unstaking (USDT Pool Trading Module)

### Staking

At the initial stage, the amount of money to be raised and lock-up period will be determined. In order to stake, users will need to bridge tokens from Arbitrum to DeriW Chain using the Cross-Chain Bridge.

The average lock-up period is 3 days. The user can apply to withdraw fund capital. The closed-end fund will then lock in its application share, and released.

If the net value of the fund pool is less than the initial amount, users can subscribe. 

### Unstaking

Upon successful subscription, the funds will be locked for 3 days and can be unstaked and redeemed at any time thereafter. At the end of the lock-up period, profits from the fund pool gains and transaction fees will be shared. The exact profit distribution will vary on the actual proportion of amount staked by the user.
