Brand, Logos & Usage
These guidelines cover Brand Assets, including but not limited to:
- The names “LooksRare” and “LOOKS Token”
- The LooksRare logo (text and icon)
- The LOOKS diamond-eye icon
LooksRare Defi is pretty open minded and flexible with icon, but not name.
They encourage creators to make derivative artworks based on the icon, and tbh they wanna see the community get real weird with it. If you’re selling derivative works, please give attribution and make sure you follow the guidelines here carefully so we don’t have a disagreement. If it’s dope, @on social so they don’t miss it!
BUT, logo and name are important, copyrighted parts of our brand, and we must protect them. So let’s go over a few ground rules.
LOOKS Staking to Earn Platform Fees
LooksRare collects a basic sales fee of 2% (in WETH) on all NFT sales excluding private sales. All the WETH collected from these fees are consolidated at the end of each recurring 6,500 Ethereum block period (roughly 24 hours) and then distributed to LOOKS stakers in a linear format per block over the next 6,500 block period.
How often can I claim my WETH rewards?
Any time you want. There’s no limit on the number of times you can claim your rewards each day, but just be cautious of the gas fees you are paying to claim.
Active and Passive Staking
The rewards for each day are calculated at the end of the previous period, then split between Active and Passive stakers before they’re distributed.
Active stakers are the majority of stakers, whose staked LOOKS tokens are fully unlocked.
Passive stakers are stakers whose LOOKS tokens are locked for trading but unlocked for staking: namely Team, Treasury and Strategic sale tokens (which unlock over time – read more).
At the start of each 6,500 block period, a portion of the WETH fees collected from the previous 6,500 blocks are sent to the Passive Staking address. The amount is calculated as:
