BioXP

What is BioXP?

BioXP is a non-transferable points system designed to reward your contributions and engagement within the Bio Protocol ecosystem. Think of it as a measure of your reputation and activity—the more you participate, the more BioXP you accumulate.

How to get BioXP?

There are two ways to earn BioXP:

  1. Staking BIO (which generates veBIO)

  2. Staking ecosystem assets such as IP Tokens, BioAgent tokens and BioDAO tokens

BioXP earned from staking BIO is distributed automatically each day, while BioXP from staking ecosystem assets must be manually claimed each day otherwise they expire the next day.

How to use BioXP?

While BioXP itself is not a token and cannot be traded, it unlocks exclusive benefits and opportunities:

  • Priority Access: Gain priority access to new project launches and exclusive events.

  • Enhanced Reputation: A high BioXP score signals your commitment and expertise within the community.


BioXP Issuance Equations

The number of BioXP you earn is calculated daily based on a combination of factors. While the exact formulas are subject to refinement through governance, the following principles guide the issuance for each category.

1. Staking BIO

Staking BIO is the most straightforward way to earn BioXP. The amount you earn is proportional to your veBIO balance, which is determined by both the amount of BIO you stake and the duration of your lock-up period.

Daily BioXP = veBIO Balance × BIO Price (USD) × VE_BIO_MULTIPLIER

Where:
• veBIO Balance = Your locked BIO tokens (vote-escrowed)
• BIO Price (USD) = Current market price of BIO
• VE_BIO_MULTIPLIER = Fixed multiplier (NEVER decays)

2. Staking Bio Ecosystem Tokens

To incentivize support for the entire ecosystem, staking Bio ecosystem tokens like IP Tokens, BioAgent tokens, and BioDAO tokens yields a greater share of BioXP emissions than staking BIO alone. Stakers of newly launched ecosystem tokens receive higher XP multipliers in the token's first 60 days live post TGE, as detailed here.

3. Completing Bounties

The protocol may offer BioXP for completing specific tasks or bounties that help the ecosystem, such as reviews of research hypotheses or explanatory content creation.
