Investment programs (TIP tiers, Farm Miner)

This page describes the core investment logic in terms of TIP tiers and Farm Miner.

1) What is a Farm Miner?

After you invest, a Farm Miner is created:

  • It has a term (in months)
  • It has a return range (min/max %)
  • Over time, it credits USDO to your balance (earn/mint)

2) TIP1/TIP2/TIP3 — what they mean

TIP is your tier, which depends on the investment size and/or the total amount of your active investments:

  • TIP thresholds are defined in Block settings

In practice:

  • TIP1 → small investments
  • TIP2 → mid-size investments (referral eligible)
  • TIP3 → large investments (often a prerequisite to become a yield receiver)

3) Term and return (what to expect)

  • Return % is usually defined as a range (min/max)
  • Earn/mint is credited to your balance via prorated/periodic calculations

4) Multiple investments and TIP upgrade

  • You can have multiple miners
  • Your program TIP can increase if the sum of active principal crosses the thresholds

5) Investment placement invite code

  • When investing, you choose an investment invite code
  • It determines your investment’s placement side (LEFT or RIGHT) for the Yield tree
  • After the first investment, the code is often locked
