Welcome to your engaging journey into the world of decentralized applications (dApps). In this blog post, we will dive into how you can work with a Blockchain Token Staking dApp that is built using React and Solidity on various Ethereum test networks. We’ll guide you through the setup process, features, and also help you troubleshoot common issues.

Working Demo

To start, you can play around with the dApp via the live demo at: Working Demo.

Overview of the dApp

This Token Staking dApp allows users to stake their tokens and earn rewards. The application has been developed for educational purposes, ensuring you can either study the code for personal learning or seek permission if you wish to modify it for other uses.

Setup Instructions

Here is a step-by-step guide to setting up the Token Staking dApp:

• Clone the Project: Begin by copying the project to your directory:

git clone https://github.com/ibnzUK/Token-Staking-dApp

• Install Dependencies: Navigate to the project folder and install the necessary packages:

npm install

• Start the Project: Launch the dApp on your local server:

npm run start

Understanding the Code: An Analogy

Think of the Token Staking dApp as a Garden where different users (gardeners) plant various seeds (tokens). Each gardener can plant, stake (water), and receive fruits (rewards) based on how much they tend to their plants (staked tokens). The smart contracts are like the rules of gardening—what you can grow, how you can water your plants, and when the harvest can occur.

1. Users can stake tokens, just like planting seeds in their garden.

2. The contract monitors how many tokens have been staked and gives rewards, similar to how plants will yield fruit based on care received.

3. Admins can manage the garden, changing the APY (Annual Percentage Yield) like adjusting the sunlight and watering schedule for optimal growth.

Testing Your Application

To run tests for your application, go to the directory where your Token Staking contract is located and execute:

truffle test

Admin Instructions

As an admin, there are several scripted tasks you can perform:

• Change APY: Execute the following command to change the daily APY:

truffle exec scripts/changeAPY.js 0.137

• Redistributing Rewards: Run the command below to redistribute rewards:

truffle exec scripts/redistribute.js

Troubleshooting

Even in the best gardens, some plants might not grow as expected. Here are some troubleshooting tips:

• Metamask Issues: Ensure you have Metamask installed and logged in to the correct account.
• Network Connection: Check your internet connection and ensure that you are connected to the correct Ethereum test network (Ropsten or Rinkeby).
• Contract Deployment Errors: If contracts do not deploy correctly, ensure your Infura key and mnemonic are accurately configured in your project settings.
• Understanding Errors: Don’t hesitate to dive back into the code or consult the documentation for any confusing error messages.
