STAKE Staking

In the Easy Staking Program rewards are calculated in two ways.

Time based Return: At Staking Rewards we present the return, that you would get when staking for 1 year consecutively. However the curve for the APY favours long-term stakers.

• Stake 10 days: 1.54% annualized
• Stake 20 days: 3.59% annualized
• Stake 30 days: 4.97% annualized
• Stake 60 days: 6.69% annualized
• Stake 90 days: 7.21% annualized
• Stake 365 days: 7.5%

Supply based Return: If 50% or more of the total token supply is being staked, then the return is 7.5%. If less is being staked then the reward is proportionally lower.

For the total reward rate you have to sum up Time based and supply-based return. So the maximum return is 15%. Make sure to try different scenarios in the xDai Staking Calculator.

To participate in the Easy Staking Program, you can visit the official dashboard and connect via Metamask.

To stake, you simply need to initiate a transaction to approve the staking smart contract.

By participating in the Easy Staking Program, you are exposed to smart contract risk. However, Quantstamp conducted a full security audit on the EasyStaking contracts. They addressed and resolved all high, medium & low-risk issues. See more information and the full report here.
