# Boost Points

Boost Points introduce the idea of protocol loyalty. Boost Points reward long term holders without inflation. When you stake $FUL or $esFUL, you receive Boost Points every second at a fixed rate of 100% APR. For example, 1000 $FUL staked for one year would earn 1000 Boost Points.

Boost Points are accrued and can be staked. Each boost point will earn the same amount of $CRO rewards as when $FUL is staked. For example, having 1000 Boost Points and 1000 $FUL staked is similar to having 2000 $FUL staked for $CRO.

When $FUL or $esFUL is unstaked, the **proportional amount of Boost Points are** **burnt**. The burn will apply to the total amount of Boost Points which includes both staked and unstaked Boost Points.

{% hint style="info" %}
For example, if 1000 $FUL is staked and 500 Boost Points have been earned so far, then unstaking 300 $FUL would burn 150 (300 / 1000 \* 500) Boost Points. 
{% endhint %}

***Boosted APR = Original APR \* (Staked Boost Points / (Staked FUL + Staked esFUL))***
