Staking Nuon Documentation

Why Stake Nuon

Staking Nuon offers an additional share of protocol rewards and early access to MaxCap tokens distribution in exchange for higher protocol risks.

Risks of staking Nuon

Staking Nuon comes with risk to staking rewards and the staked capital. Nuon stakers are one of the three layers of defense for the protocol and consumer protection of the Nuon holders. In case of hacks, vulnerabilities, or major economic or market movements that cause serious liquidity depletion in the protocol, staked Nuon TVL may be liquidated to enable exit for the protected Nuon holders.

How to stake Nuon

Staking Mechanics

  • Required minimum: 1,000 Nuon (during the Guarded Launch, normally no minimum)

  • Rewards: MaxCap tokens

  • APY: Estimated ~9%–40% depending on launch phase and TVL (~1500% currently during the Guarded Launch, based on the MaxCap token distribution)

  • Unbonding Period: 7 days during Guarded Launch (normally 21 days)

  • Token rewards are claimable after TGE and subject to lockups and vesting schedules for the safety of the protocol.

Inflation yield while staking Nuon

  • Staked Nuon still earns an inflation yield in Nuon via rebase

  • The inflation yields accrue with the staked Nuon

  • During the unstaking period, no yields or awards are accrued
