MasterChef is a smart contract that distributes SUSHI rewards to users staking their tokens. To compete with other AMMs - Sushi needs liquidity. In order to attract more liquidity, Sushi gives out incentives ($SUSHI) to users who add and stake their liquidity (Sushi LP) tokens.

By staking their SLP tokens, users will earn fees from swaps or lending and extra SUSHI incentives (double rewards)! 🍣💵


MasterChef Implementations

There are three different implementation types of MasterChef, each with a different focus for different situtations:

  • MasterChefv1: The main contract on the Ethereum network that rewards $SUSHI to users for staking their LP tokens
  • MasterChefv2: Secondary contract on the Ethereum network. It is built on top of MasterChefv1 and gives 2 different type of tokens as a reward. e.g Users will receive SUSHI & another token as their staking reward
  • MiniChef: This contract is mainly deployed on various EVM compatible chains (AVAX, FTM, CELO etc.). It is similar to MasterChefv2, in which it also gives 2 different type of tokens as a reward

You can find the contract addresses for each relevant deployment through our technical documentation.
