CPU Rental

WaxFusion offers CPU rentals at the lowest rates on the market. The reason we are able to do this is due to the fact that we would be staking WAX regardless of renting or not, since it's the main source of generating rewards for the protocol.

Any additional sources of rewards are just an added benefit that boost APRs for our users. When renting CPU from WaxFusion, you have 3 different options.

• Short Term Rental

• Long Term Rental

• Powerup

Short Term Rental

When using the Short Term Rental option, you are renting CPU from user-deposited funds. Rentals are for pre-determined timeframes, and the duration of these timeframes is dependent on how far into an epoch the protocol is.

More information about epochs, how long they last, and why they are structured the way they are can be found on the epochs page.

Epochs

Long Term Rental

The Long Term Rental option rents CPU directly from Protocol Owned Liquidity. Since the WAX staked by POL does not need to be available for redemptions, it can be rented for as long as needed.

Due to the fact that the goal with POL funds is to be as efficient as possible, rentals from this pool must be at least 30 days long. The great part about Long Term Rentals is that they are a lot more flexible than the other options - renters can view/manage their existing rentals, increase the rented WAX amount, extend the rental period etc.

Powerup

Powerup is actually just the native Powerup option that has become available on WAX Blockchain since early 2024. We've built a custom UI into WaxFusion so you can conveniently powerup your account without any guesswork involved.

Powerups last 24 hours and then expire, so they are great if you just need a bit of CPU when you're in a pinch and have to submit a few transactions.
