# Mining

### **Mining performance**

Upon starting the mining user account were given score. The mining speed was determined by score. Base mining performance was 1 **$switch** per hour, max performance was **5 $switch** per hour**.** 

**Moreover, users could've boosted their mining performance by the following actions**

* TON network swap: +2 **$switch/hour** per swap (24 hours, up to 40 times a day) 
* EVM network swap:  +0.6 **$switch/hour** per swap (24 hours, up to 40 times a day)
* Ethereum mainnet swap: +1.1 **$switch/hour** per swap (24 hours, up to 40 times a day) 
* Connect [TON Punks NFT](https://getgems.io/collection/EQAo92DYMokxghKcq-CkCGSk_MgXY5Fo1SPW20gkvZl75iCN#activity): +0.3125 $**switch/hour** per NFT, while connected. 
* Join Big Pump Whitelist & invite 2 friends: +1.5 $**switch/hour.**
* ?????
* Actual $SWITCH mining speed boosts were available in [the PocketFi app](https://t.me/PocketFi_bot/mining)! 

**Claim and burn**

All mined tokens appeared to claim. Claim was available immediately, although tokens were stored in user account unavailable for transfers and swaps (until token generation event). All unclaimed tokens burned automatically every 6 hours. 

### Roadmap and Halving

The overall mining speed gradually reduced based on Total Users milestone pass. The mining speed reduction also applied to all boosts.

| Total Users            | Speed Adjustment | Example           |
| ---------------------- | ---------------- | ----------------- |
| <2,000,000             | x                | 5 $SWITCH/h       |
| 2,000,000 — 4,000,000  | 0,5x             | 2.5 $SWITCH/h     |
| 4,000,000 — 6,000,000  | 0,25x            | 1.25 $SWITCH/h    |
| 6,000,000 — 8,000,000  | 0,125x           | 0.625 $SWITCH/h   |
| 8,000,000 — 10,000,000 | 0,0625x          | 0.3125 $SWITCH/h  |
| >10,000,000            | 0,03125x         | 0.15625 $SWITCH/h |

#### The End of Mining
