Overview
AdaMatic is a web app that collects HOSKY token rewards for you on a schedule, so you do not have to claim them by hand each time. Released as a beta, it serves people who stake ADA with a HOSKY Rug Pool (a stake pool whose delegators can claim HOSKY) and want those rewards to keep arriving without opening a wallet each time rewards are due1.
AdaMatic runs on Cardano and comes from Easy1Staking, the team behind the EASY1 stake pool, which launched in 20202. HOSKY is a meme token offered for entertainment3. HOSKY Rug Pools are stake pools whose delegators can claim it each epoch, Cardano's five-day reward period, by sending a 2 ADA transaction4. AdaMatic sends that transaction for you.
Key Features
- Rewards that arrive on their own. An authorised bot sends each scheduled pull from your deposit, so you do not need to sign again or keep a wallet connected4.
- Keep a hardware wallet offline. Any wallet can set up pulls, and HOSKY still goes to the delegated address, so a small everyday wallet can manage collection for a hardware wallet that stays offline5.
- Many wallets, one setup. The HOSKY setup form accepts several delegated addresses at once6, and the AdaMatic FAQ sets no limit on how many auto-pulls one person can create5.
- A fee cap you choose. Each pull costs a 0.2 ADA protocol fee plus the network fee6. The protocol can change its fee, so the maximum fee you set stops the per-transaction cost from rising past your limit4.
- Funds stay under your control. Your deposit sits in a smart contract (a program that runs on the blockchain) rather than with a company, and cancelling returns whatever is left to your wallet5.
What to Expect
Setup takes a few steps6. You connect a CIP-30 wallet (the standard way Cardano wallets link to web apps), such as Lace or Eternl5. On the HOSKY setup page you paste the addresses delegated to a Rug Pool and choose the first epoch, the number of epochs between pulls, an optional end point, and your fee cap. Then you fund a deposit that each pull draws from until you cancel. A guided tour explains each field for first-time users6.
After that, the My auto-pulls page lists your schedules1. By default AdaMatic sends each pull about 48 hours after an epoch starts, which gives the HOSKY reward system time to settle. A pull that fails, for example because the deposit ran low, is marked as failed rather than retried, so you top up or create a new schedule. HOSKY rewards build up to a ceiling, so holders of small wallets can wait more epochs between pulls to make each one worth it5.
Developers can read the contract code, written in Aiken (a programming language for Cardano smart contracts) and released under the MIT license, in the cardano-recurring-payment repository4. The web app's code sits in a separate open-source frontend repository7. Readers comparing options can browse other rewards tools in the directory.
