# MSP Example

Consider the following tokens being accepted into a staking pool and their corresponding approximate yields:

<figure><img src="/files/c0BXlPaxBt5lFYUFFiTN" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* ETH \~ 4% yield
* LSTs \~ 3.5% yield
* MATIC \~ 5.5% yield
* ARITH \~ 15% yield

For this scenario, assume the quantities deposited of each token are equal. Therefore, the average yield of the pool is 7 %.

Consider that 100 users deposited into this pool and each deposits only 1 token.\
Pool size: 100 tokens\
After 12 months, with a 7% APR, the pool will contain 107 tokens. Therefore, 7 new tokens are being generated.

As described earlier, if there are 100 participants, following a division ratio of 1:4 gives us 20 eHST and 80 sHST holders.

sHST holders are guaranteed a return of 6%. In this case, this implies that 80 sHST holders receive \~ 5 tokens, meaning each sHST holder receives 0.0625 tokens on their 1 token deposit.

Therefore, the effective return rate earned by each sHST holder after 12 months is 6.25%

eHST holders, on the other hand, receive the remaining yield. This implies that 20 eHST holders receive 2 tokens, meaning each eHST holder receives 0.1 tokens on their 1 token deposit.\
Therefore, the effective return rate earned by each eHST holder after 12 months is 10%

It should also be noted that eHST holders receive any excess yield stored in the LEP over 12 months.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://arithmic-labs.gitbook.io/arithmic-documentation/arithmics-multichain-staking-pools-msp/how-does-an-arithmic-msp-work/msp-example.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
