Staking & Yield

Earn real USDC yield through flexible staking with multiplier bonuses and status tier rewards.

Staking Mechanics

Stake Any Amount: No minimum requirements to participate in yield generation

  • Real USDC Rewards: Weekly distributions from external yield sources

  • NFT Positions: All stakes are minted as transferable NFTs

  • Flexible Management: Create, add to, or merge stakes without fees or penalties

Lock Period Multipliers

Longer commitments increase your share of the weekly yield pool:

Lock Period
Multiplier
Pool Weight Effect

30 days

1x

100 tokens = 100 pool weight

90 days

1.5x

100 tokens = 150 pool weight

180 days

2x

100 tokens = 200 pool weight

1 year

3x

100 tokens = 300 pool weight

2 years

5x

100 tokens = 500 pool weight

How It Works: Your share of weekly USDC yield = (Your Pool Weight ÷ Total Pool Weight) × 65% of weekly yield

Example:

  • You stake 100 MONSTR for 2 years = 500 pool weight

  • Total pool weight across all stakers = 50,000

  • Your share = 500 ÷ 50,000 = 1% of the weekly USDC distribution to stakers

Weekly Yield Distribution

External yield generated by the ecosystem is distributed weekly:

  • 65% to Stakers: Paid in USDC based on pool weight

  • 20% Compound TVL: Automatically reinvested to grow ecosystem

  • 10% Treasury: Operational expenses and development (USDC)

  • 5% Referral Program: Rewards for community growth

Status Tier Bonuses

Holding larger amounts unlocks additional pool weight bonuses:

Integration with Ecosystem

Independent Products: Golemz, Poolz, and Pokz NFTs remain separate and unchanged

  • Continue operating with existing mechanics

  • TVL health and APR thresholds determine team compensation vs. insurance reserves

Yield Sustainability:

  • External yield sources ensure real returns

  • Treasury reserves maintain payment consistency

  • Compound TVL mechanism grows long-term sustainability

The staking system creates a sustainable yield generation mechanism while rewarding long-term commitment and larger stakeholders through multipliers and status bonuses, all while maintaining flexibility through NFT-based positions and advanced management features.
