🧧Staking

Introduction

Staking on the Definder platform is an integral feature designed to reward user participation, enhance platform security, and facilitate community governance. By staking Definder Tokens (DNT), users can earn rewards, increase their voting power in governance decisions, and contribute to the ecosystem's growth and stability.

Staking Process and User Dashboard

  1. User Dashboard: Users access the staking feature through the user dashboard on the Definder platform. The dashboard provides a straightforward interface for depositing DNT tokens into the staking contract, selecting the desired staking period, and monitoring staking rewards and performance.

  2. Stake Initiation: To participate, users deposit DNT tokens into a designated staking contract. This action is facilitated through a seamless process within the user dashboard, ensuring accessibility and ease of use for all participants.

Staking Periods and Rewards

  1. Flexible Staking Periods: Definder offers a variety of staking periods to accommodate different user preferences and strategies. Available options include:

    • 1 month (1m)

    • 3 months (3m)

    • 6 months (6m)

    • 12 months (12m)

    • 2 years (2y)

  2. Rewards Distribution: Rewards are distributed in DNT tokens, proportionate to the amount of DNT staked and the duration of the staking period. Longer staking periods typically offer higher reward rates, incentivizing long-term participation in the platform.

  3. Reward Calculation: The platform calculates rewards based on the staked token amount and the selected staking period. This transparent mechanism ensures that users are fairly compensated for their contributions to the platform's liquidity and governance.

  4. Unstaking: At the end of the lock-up period, users can choose to unstake their DNT tokens. Unstaking may be subject to a cooling-off period, after which users can withdraw their original stake plus any earned rewards.

  5. Security Measures: To safeguard the platform and its users, staked tokens may also contribute to the platform's security. For instance, they might be used as a deterrent against malicious actions in the ecosystem.

  6. Staking Pools: For users with smaller amounts of DNT or those looking to mitigate risks, Definder offers staking pools. These pools allow users to combine their tokens with others, sharing in the rewards and governance participation.

Integration with Definder's Ecosystem

  • Definder Marketplace: Staking could be integrated with the Definder Marketplace, allowing stakers to receive preferential terms or bonuses on investments.

  • Payment Processing and Exchanges: Integration with payment processors and exchanges (CEX and DEX) facilitates the seamless acquisition of DNT for staking and the conversion of rewards into other currencies or tokens.

Enhanced Voting Power

  1. Governance Participation: Staked DNT tokens grant users additional voting power in the Definder DAO. This empowers stakers to have a more significant influence on key decisions, including project approvals, platform updates, and governance rule changes.

  2. Proportional Influence: The extent of a user's voting power is directly proportional to the amount of DNT staked. This approach aligns users' influence in governance decisions with their stake in the platform, fostering a more engaged and committed community.
