While ASR claims are live and we are approaching to new votes and Goodcats claim times, the number of questions about how the staking-unstaking and claim mechanism works together increases.
I have collected the common parts of general questions in community and wanted to bring more attention to the subject.
Staking new Jup while there is an ongoing unstaking or claiming rewards during an unstaking phase might be confusing.
In addition it is important to know and highlight the crucial information about how voting power mechanism works especially during unstaking phase.
While it is known that the voting power decreases in time during unstaking phase there is a certain difference among fully and partial unstaking.
In addition in case of full unstaking even if a vote executed if the unstaking countdown ends BEFORE the vote session ends the voting power can be zero and might cause bad experience because of lack of proper notification about it.
While the wallet addresses and vote powers reaching to record numbers it would be better to provide detailed pop up notifications for those in that kind of situations.
While the sentences can be changed and be more formal and proper i think it would be good to make new notification update in vote such as ;
1- Caution! You have full unstake in progress. If you stake jup, it will join the unstaking phase. If you are staking new jup to be able to vote, we want to remind you that your vote power is taken into consideration at the time of vote session ends. Make sure that unstake countdown ends AFTER vote session ends.
2- Caution! You have partial unstaking in progress. New staked jups will not automatically go into unstaking process.
Or in case of ASR or Goodcats ( staked claim )
3- Caution !
You have unstake in progress. This reward can only be claimed as staked. To be able to claim your reward
cancel the ongoing unstake
Or
wait until unstake countdown ends
The informations shared above might not be %100 correct, i will be glad to get community’s feedback in this subject, so maybe team can consider an update and you can have a chance to shape the way it is. Team always listens and react, thanks in advance🙏🏼
