Fixed-term deals, flexible-term deals and flash deals - How are they different?

Staking cryptocurrency can be a great way to both diversify your portfolio and grow the tokens you hold. But with so many different options to choose from, figuring out which is best for you can be overwhelming.

To help you simplify the process, let's look at three common types of crypto staking offerings: flash deals, flexible-term deals, and fixed-term deals.

Each has its own benefits and drawbacks depending on your priorities, and that's why careful due diligence is a must before jumping in.

Fixed term deals, flexible term deals, and flash deals - How are they different?

Fixed term deals: A fixed term deal requires you to lock in your cryptocurrency for a fixed period of time - until the staking period is over. Depending on the time period you choose, the annualized potential rewards can be more or less attractive.

A fixed term deal offers a sense of structure and stability to HODLERs (people who want to hold on to the assets for a long period of time). Fixed term deals can offer high annualized potential rewards and allow HODLERs to earn while maintaining their position. On the other hand, since the terms cannot be altered, users run the risk of being stuck in a position during market swings, unable to sell it. For some, fixed term deals lead to feelings of anxiety and a lack of control over one’s cryptocurrency.

Flexible term deals: Flexible term deals allow you to redeem the cryptocurrency at any time. This limits your exposure to the risk inherited from the market's volatility, giving you flexibility if you need to sell your assets quickly.

Flexible term deals balance the offers between flash deals and fixed term deals. They aren’t too restrictive like the latter but don’t offer attractive annualized potential rewards like a flash deal. The main advantage of flexible term deals is that you can make adjustments based on market changes and circumstances that might arise. They give you more control over your strategy.

Flash deals: Flash deals offer attractive annualized potential rewards for a short to medium time period. It is a one time offer, typically with a limited quota. The advantage of this is that you can take advantage of high annualized potential rewards without taking too much risk because of the short time period during which your cryptocurrencies will be locked. Flash deals could allow you to enjoy higher annualized potential rewards with a limited quota, so you must act fast. The downside is that you may miss out on a deal quickly as soon as the quotas are snatched up.

Understanding these three options will help you balance the annualized potential rewards and the risk you are comfortable with.

When to consider each type of deal

Understanding the nuances of each type of deal is critical in getting the most out of your cryptocurrency. Flash deals are generally only available for limited times and often have high annualized potential rewards, possibly making them a good choice for faster growth.

On the other hand, flexible term deals might provide lower annualized potential rewards on the cryptocurrency for the duration of your tenure; this makes them best suited to those looking to align multiple trades and earn strategies over a short period. Finally, fixed term deals sometimes involve higher annualized potential rewards. They typically consist of longer terms with less wiggle room.

Being aware of all these options allows savvy crypto investors to get the best deal possible and makes sure they don’t miss out on fast-moving deals. In the end, doing your research on each type of deal will go a long way to helping you choose the one that best fits your strategy since each has its own benefits and drawbacks.
