Staking

What's Staking?

Staking is the process of locking up your $STOX tokens in the protocol to support the network and earn rewards. In STOX, staking allows you to benefit from treasury growth and protocol revenue, turning your holdings into a passive income stream.

By staking, you receive a token called sSTOX that represents your staked position and grows over time thanks to protocol-generated yield. Once users hold STOX, they can stake it to earn rewards from protocol revenue and treasury growth.

Dynamic Staking Mechanism

How Staking Works: STOX’s staking system is continuous and flexible:

• You can stake, claim, or compound your rewards at any time.

• Staking immediately begins earning you rebase rewards.

• You earn rewards in the form of additional sSTOX, which auto-compounds over time.

Claiming Rewards:

• When you claim, you receive 100% of your accrued rewards.

• To continue earning, you must relock your stake for at least one epoch.

Compounding Rewards:

• Compounding reinvests your rewards back into your stake.

• Compounding not only gives you 100% of your rewards, but also adds a compound streak bonus, increasing your APY the longer you compound without claiming.

Unstaking:

• You can unstake at any time.

• A 10% fee is applied to the unstaked amount to protect long-term stakers.

Fees:

• ✅ No fees for staking or compounding

• ⚠️ 10% fee on unstaking to discourage short-term speculation
