# Stake Position ## Staked position package This package provides an interface to the staked position manipulation. The main entry point is the StakedPosition structure. ## Opening a position A user can open a position by using the stake function. When opening a position, a user has to specify the lock duration period in milliseconds. The lock duration should respect the boundaries set during the Afterburner Vault configuration. A locked position will receive bonus rewards in respect of the configured Afterburner Vault’s multiplier. ## Harvesting rewards Rewards harvesting is a three-stage process: * a user has to call the begin\_harvest\ function; * for each reward, a user should call the harvest\_rewards\ function. It will allow the user to obtain rewards accrued for the type \`Coin\\`; * to finalize the process a user has to call the end\_harvest function which emits the corresponding event. For a Strict implementation, a user can claim their rewards at any moment. For a Relaxed implementation, a user can claim their rewards only after the position is unlocked. ## Adding to a stake At any given moment a user can increase the position’s staked amount by using the deposit\_principal function. After increasing the stake of a locked position, the lock period is recalculated. ## Withdrawing a stake A user may withdraw the staked principal by using the withdraw\_principal\ function. The position must be unlocked in order to withdraw from it. It is not possible to unlock a position staked in the Strict Afterburner Vault before the end of the lock period. ## Prolonging a position's lock A user may increase a lock period by using the renew\_lock function. ## Joining positions A user may merge two positions by using the join function. The resulting position will have the most recent lock start time and the longer lock duration between the two positions. ## Splitting positions A user may split a position into two by using the split function. The accumulated rewards are split between the two positions determined by the pro-rata amount being split over the total staked amount. All other parameters are kept identical to the original position. ## Closing a position A user may delete an inactive position by using the destroy function. The destroyed position must not have any principal or rewards remaining. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
