Flash Strategy

In accordance with the Flashstake Protocol, all strategies utilized must adhere to the Flash Strategy interface as defined.

Strategies can be created, deployed, and registered by any individual or entity, resulting in varying code sources. The source code for strategies developed by the Flashstake DAO can be accessed by navigating to the corresponding strategy on the sidebar.

Methods

Deposit principal

function depositPrincipal(uint256 _tokenAmount) external returns (uint256);

This function will be called whenever a user stakes via the Flash Protocol. The Strategy owner can choose to implement a fee but the resulting “locked” principal the user should expect after the stake has ended must be returned.

Danger

This function should be protected such that only the Flash Protocol can execute this. This is to ensure users do not accidentally call this function and lose their funds.

Withdraw principal

function withdrawPrincipal(uint256 _tokenAmount) external;

This function should withdraw principal from the underlying strategy (eg AAVE).

Note

This function should be protected such that only the Flash Protocol can execute this. Keeping this unprotected would of course mean anyone would withdraw principal tokens from your strategy.

Burn fToken

function burnFToken(
    uint256 _tokenAmount,
    uint256 _minimumReturned,
    address _yieldTo
) external returns (uint256);

This is the function the user will be calling when performing a FlashBurn. It is responsible for burning the fToken supplied by the user and returning yield to the user.

Get principal balance

function getPrincipalBalance() external view returns (uint256);

This must return the current total of all principal accepted by the contract.

Get yield balance

function getYieldBalance() external view returns (uint256);

This function must report the total yield balance.

Get principal address

function getPrincipalAddress() external view returns (address);

This must return the principal token address (eg DAI).

Quote mint fToken

function quoteMintFToken(uint256 _tokenAmount, uint256 duration) external view returns (uint256);

This function will be called by the Flash Protocol (and frontends) to determine how many fTokens should be minted for a given _tokenAmount and _duration (in seconds).

Quote burn fToken

function quoteBurnFToken(uint256 _tokenAmount) external view returns (uint256);

This function must return the yield a user should expect when burning _tokenAmount fTokens.

Set fToken address

function setFTokenAddress(address _fTokenAddress) external;

The function to set the fERC20 address within the strategy.

Note

This function should be protected such that only the Flash Protocol can execute this.

Get max stake duration

function getMaxStakeDuration() external view returns (uint256);

This function must report the maximum duration a user can stake for. This can either be hardcoded or be a function of on-chain metrics.

Events

BurnedFToken

event BurnedFToken(address indexed _address, uint256 _tokenAmount, uint256 _yieldReturned);
  • _address: the address of the user who burned fTokens.

  • _tokenAmount: the number of fTokens burned.

  • _yieldReturned: the number of yield tokens returned to the user.
