# **Alchemist FAQ $mist ⚗️**
**What is Alchemist?**
[alchemist.wtf](https://github.com/alchemistcoin/alchemist)
Alchemist was started with a [tweet](https://twitter.com/thegostep/status/1358159173440184322?s=20) by [@thegostep](https://twitter.com/thegostep).
There is no “dev team”. There is no company. There is only a community of alchemists figuring out what to build in the open.
There is no roadmap. An alchemist never makes forward looking statements, simply because the future is unpredictable.
The only plan is there is no plan ⚗️
**How do I become an Alchemist?**
Becoming an alchemist requires learning and practice. Training is a way of life for a true alchemist. There is no final destination, only continuous change.
⚗️$mist is used to coordinate and reward committed alchemists. Whether you are an artist, a developer, a community manager, or a liquidity provider, there is a role for you.
Come meet the other alchemists at [discord.alchemist.wtf](http://discord.alchemist.wtf) and offer your skills in the #bounties channel.
**Is there a website?**
Not yet. If you are interested in helping build one, check out [the lab](https://discord.gg/UQB4MwG4c8) on Discord.
# **$MIST FAQ**
**Where can I trade ⚗️ ($MIST) ?**
[uniswap.alchemist.wtf](https://app.uniswap.org/#/swap?inputCurrency=0x88acdd2a6425c3faae4bc9650fd7e27e0bebb7ab&use=V2)
**What is total/circulating supply?**
Circulating supply and total supply are the same. This started with 1,000,000, but increases by 1% every two weeks. The current supply is shown [here](https://etherscan.io/token/0x88acdd2a6425c3faae4bc9650fd7e27e0bebb7ab)
**Do you plan pre/private/public sale?**
There are no sales. We held an initial Balancer pool and all ETH raised were deposited into the reward program.
**Does the token have inflation?**
Inflation is currently 1% every two weeks but can be modified up or down. To avoid being diluted by inflation, Subscibe your ⚗️$mist in the Aludel reward program.
The current allocation of the inflation tokens is:
50% to Aludel reward pool, 25% to $mist community multisig & 25% to $mist treasury.
**What can I do with my ⚗️$mist?**
A liquidity provider reward program has been deployed for the ⚗️$mist/ETH Uniswap pool. This reward program is called the Aludel. (Think of this as a staking smart contract designed by our guildmaster).
A community multisig has been created to accumulate funds that can be used for bounties. Take a look at the [bounties channel](https://discord.gg/92hQDCw25u) on discord or donate to the multisig at [multisig.alchemistcoin.eth.](https://etherscan.io/address/multisig.alchemistcoin.eth)

# **Aludel/Crucible FAQ**
# **Please watch this Video on Impermanent loss before proceeding**
# https://youtu.be/8XJ1MSTEuU0
**How do I participate in the Aludel / How do I mint a Crucible NFT?**
To participate in the Aludel, you must mint a Crucible NFT and deposit some ⚗️$mist/ETH Uniswap LP tokens into it (think of this as a virtual vault). The Crucible then accrues rewards from the Aludel program proportional to the amount and duration of LP tokens that are Subscribed. The cost of minting a Crucible and Subscribing depends on the current gas prices of ethereum, you can expect it will be approx 0.1-0.2 ETH.
**Important information :**
~**Do not use Brave browser as it is not compatible with the process at this time and you're transaction will fail resulting in lost fees.**
**~We do not recommend using a hardware wallet at this time as many do not currently support EIP-712 signing. When they fix this, we can implement it.**
**~Some users have reported issues with Trustwallet.**
~**We do not recommend you do this on a mobile.**
1. To mint a crucible go to the website, [alchemist.wtf](https://crucible.alchemist.wtf/)
2. Connect MetaMask wallet
3. Enter the amount of LP you wish you put into the Crucible.
4. Hit “Mint Crucible and Subscribe LP to Aludel”. You will get 2 approvals via MetaMask pop up, sign these and wait for completion.
5. Next you will be asked to confirm the transaction, this normally costs around 0.1-0.2 Eth to create a Crucible, if you're happy with the gas price, press confirm and wait for the transaction to go through.
6. Once complete you will see your new Crucible in your Erc721 tokens tab on Etherscan.

You can add the contract address **0x54e0395CFB4f39beF66DBCd5bD93Cca4E9273D56** to make your crucible(s) visible.
**What are the rewards for Subscribing in the Aludel?**
Rewards are distributed from the reward pool proportionally to the amount and duration of a Subscription. The more ⚗️$mist/ETH Uniswap LP tokens you Subscribe and the longer you leave it for, the more rewards it will accumulate. The Aludel reward program is designed to reward long term participants.

**How do I become an certified Alchemist in Discord?**
* Please use this [guide](https://hackmd.io/@alchemistcoin/H1qJBNwLO)
* Join Discord
* Go to the Welcome channelType !join
* You will then get a message from the Collab.Land bot
* Connect Your wallet containing your ⚗️$mist
* The bot will then message you ~ Updating roles, Please check assigned roles in Alchemist
* Close bot and return to the main alchemy channel and you will now be a certified Alchemist!
**How do I claim the rewards?**
All rewards are received when you "Claim Rewards and Unsubscribe LP". Be careful, this also resets your reward multiplier. You will need to use Taichi Network when doing this to prevent bots from front-running your rewards. See this [guide](https://hackmd.io/@alchemistcoin/SJibHzPUu).
**Does it matter how many LP tokens go into the Crucible?**
The more LP tokens you get the higher amount of liquidity you provided therefore a larger percentage of the rewards pool you will receive. There is no minimum LP required, but we do suggest you be mindful of the ethereum gas cost when considering this.
**Is it more advantageous to have more Crucibles or a higher Subscription in one Crucible?**
It’s almost always better to accumulate LP in a single Crucible as it minimizes the gas costs.
The only time you would use multiple Crucibles is if you aim to transfer / sell a Crucible with some active Subscription on it.
**How does "Claim Rewards and Unsubscribe LP" impact the reward multiplier?**
Every time you put LP tokens in the Aludel reward program, it keeps track of how long those tokens are Subscribed. The Aludel applies a reward multiplier which starts at 1x and increases to 10x over 60 days. When you claim a partial amount, the Aludel first claims from the Subscription with the lowest multiplier (Last In, First Out).
**Can I somehow see how much rewards I have acquired in the meantime?**
You can see the accumulated reward for your crucible by using the UI at [alchemist.farm](https://alchemist.farm) and the accumulated Uniswap LP fees using [apy.vision](https://apy.vision/) or [croco.finance](https://croco.finance/)
**Can I add more LP to an existing Crucible?**
Yes. The gas for adding more LPs to your current Crucible will be much lower than when you initially minted a Crucible. Each Subscription event is independent, so any LP you add will start their own multiplier independently.
**Does “Claim Rewards and Unsubscribe LP” remove my LP & rewards from the Crucible?**
No. This only claims the rewards earned, your LP will remain in the Crucible until you “Withdraw Unsubscribed LP”.
**Does “Withdraw Unsubscribed LP” destroy the Crucible?**
No, it only empties it. You retain the empty Crucible.
**Can I transfer the Crucible NFT to another wallet?**
Yes, the ownership of the NFT (and the Subscribed LP tokens) can be transferred to any ERC721 compatible wallet. This can be done via the "Transfer Crucible" button on [alchemist.farm](https://alchemist.farm/)
**If I transfer my Crucible from one wallet to another will that reset the multiplier?**
No, as long as the rewards are not unsubscribed from the Aludel.
