Staking

This document will provide an overview of $XNET staking which is designed to align long-term incentivizes for deployers.

Overview

XNET staking is designed to reward stakers based on how long they commit their tokens. Whether you're locking in for 14 days or going full 365, your returns grow with your commitment. This system is transparent, non-inflationary, and composable — designed for real stakers building real infrastructure.

How Staking Works

1. Lock $XNET

Head to :

  • You choose a lock duration between 14 and 365 days

  • A linear multiplier is calculated instantly

  • You receive a Stake Receipt Token (proof of stake)

The longer your lock, the better your multiplier — and the more daily rewards you earn.

2. Earn Daily Rewards

Rewards accumulate daily in the background, calculated as:

daily_reward = staked_amount × base_rate × multiplier

Rewards are not claimed daily. They are distributed in full at the end of the lock period when you burn your Receipt Token.

3. Unlock + Claim

When the lock ends:

  • Burn your Receipt Token

  • Receive your original stake plus all accrued rewards

🧨 Warning: Losing or burning your XGT Receipt Token early = permanent loss.

The protocol does not offer recovery. Receipt = ownership.

Technical Breakdown

Multiplier Formula (Linear)

multiplier = 1 + ((duration_days - 14) / (365 - 14)) × 0.646

  • Starts at 1.0x on day 14

  • Reaches 1.646x on day 365

  • Grows linearly across the range

Base Rate

base_rate = 0.0003288 XNET per token per day at 1x multiplier

Reward Examples

Strategy A: Re-stake Every 14 Days (Short-Term Loop)

  • Stake: 1000 XNET

  • Lock: 14 days (x26 cycles per year)

  • Multiplier: 1.0x

  • Daily Reward: 1000 × 0.0003288 = 0.3288 XNET

  • Reward per cycle: 0.3288 × 14 = 4.6032 XNET

  • Annual Total: 4.6032 × 26 ≈ 119.68 XNET

Strategy B: Stake Once for 365 Days (Full Commitment)

  • Stake: 1000 XNET

  • Lock: 365 days

  • Multiplier: 1.646x

  • Daily Reward: 1000 × 0.0003288 × 1.646 ≈ 0.5413 XNET

  • Annual Total: 0.5413 × 365 ≈ 197.57 XNET

Result:

  • 197.57 XNET from full-year stake (365 Day Lock)

  • 119.68 XNET from constant re-staking (14 Day Lock Restake) +65% yield boost by committing long-term

APR Formula

To calculate estimated APR:

APR = base_rate × multiplier × 365 × 100

Example (365-day stake):

APR = 0.0003288 × 1.646 × 365 × 100 ≈ 19.7%

Protocol Flow

  1. Connect Solana wallet

  2. Choose XNET amount + lock duration

  3. Protocol mints:

    • Stake Receipt (on-chain proof)

    • Stake Token (claim token)

  4. Rewards accrue daily

  5. At end of lock, burn token → receive stake + rewards

Staking FAQ

What is staking?

Locking XNET to earn yield. Staking aligns incentives, supports the protocol, and rewards long-term thinking.

Can I unstake early?

No. This is commitment-based staking. You can only unstake after the lock period ends.

What are Receipt Tokens?

Temporary synthetic tokens representing your locked position. They are burned when you unstake. If lost, your stake is unrecoverable.

What is the Reward Pool?

A vault of XNET used to pay daily rewards. Controlled, pre-funded, non-inflationary.

Can I open multiple stakes?

Yes. Every stake creates an independent position with its own timeline and multiplier.

Reward Pool Sustainability

XNET staking is powered by a pre-funded, capped Reward Pool of 6,000,000 XNET. No inflation, no dilution — rewards are earned from a fixed emission pool, ensuring long-term sustainability.

🔒 Estimated Lock Rate

We estimate that 5% to 10% of the current circulating supply will be locked in staking:

  • Circulating supply: 110,000,000 XNET

  • Estimated locked: 5.5M – 11M XNET

📉 Annual Emissions Based on 16% Average APR

  • Low estimate (5.5M locked): 5,500,000 × 0.16 = 880,000 XNET/year

  • High estimate (11M locked): 11,000,000 × 0.16 = 1,760,000 XNET/year

Reward Pool Longevity

% Circulating Supply Staked
Estimated Duration

5% (5.5M XNET)

~6.8 years

10% (11M XNET)

~3.4 years

Key Insight

At current projections, the 6M XNET Reward Pool can sustainably power staking for 3.4 to 6.8 years, depending on participation rates and lock durations.

Higher commitment = faster emissions — but also stronger network alignment.
