Tour of the Farm: Understanding the Silo @pintodotmoney is doing something different , and to truly understand it, you need to know the parts of the Farm. Last time, we explored the Field (Pinto’s decentralized credit facility). Today, we’re stepping into the Silo, where farmers rest, grow, and earn. Let’s break it down: https://mirror.xyz/0xEA13D1fB14934E41Ee7074198af8F089a6d956B5/GCyB1WmkKI6YB4j-HEZa7TfeIUNCfr2QXqvMYbxKB2k

The Silo is the backbone of Pinto’s liquidity. It’s where you deposit Pinto or LP tokens and in return, earn Stalk and Seeds. • Stalk = your ownership share of future Pinto supply (like voting power + yield) • Seeds = how fast your Stalk grows, compounding over time (Think of it like planting in fertile soil. The longer you leave your assets deposited, the more yield potential they build, because your Seeds are always working.)

Why does this matter? Because it makes Pinto more resilient and sticky. You don’t just stake for rewards, you grow roots. Withdraw too early? You lose all the Grown Stalk (your extra rewards), which makes people think twice before pulling out. That’s stability.

So what can you deposit? • Plain $PINTO • LP tokens from Pinto Exchange (like PINTO:USDC or PINTO:WETH) Your choice impacts your rewards and your exposure: • LP tokens usually earn more Seeds (and thus Stalk), but you’re also exposed to other asset prices like ETH or USDC • Depositing pure Pinto gives cleaner upside if Pinto is below its $1 value target

There’s also a cool mechanism called “Target Seasons to Catch Up.” This makes sure new farmers aren’t left behind. It gradually balances out old and new Deposits so early entrants don’t monopolize all the yield. Fair farming for everyone.
