Staking Ecosystem Tokens

In addition to staking BIO, you can also stake other tokens from across the Bio Protocol ecosystem, such as IP Tokens, BioAgent tokens and BioDAO tokens. This is another way to earn BioXP to use in Ignition Sales.

How it Works

The staking mechanism for ecosystem tokens is designed to be simple and flexible.

Staking and Unstaking

  • No Lock Duration: Unlike veBIO staking, there is no minimum lock-up period required. You can stake and unstake your assets at any time.

  • Unstaking Cooldown: When you decide to unstake your assets, a 2-week "unstaking duration" will apply. This means that while you can initiate the unstaking process at any time, your tokens will only be available to be claimed after the two-week cooldown period has passed.

  • Reward Cessation: You will stop earning BioXP points immediately upon initiating the unstaking process, not after the cooldown is complete.

Staking an ecosystem token does not yield veBIO or any form of vote escrow ecosystem token.

Multipliers

Your BioXP earning power from ecosystem token staking is influenced by your multipliers. There are a few types of multipliers that can be achieved:

  1. Multiplier from BIO staking: the more BIO you have staked and the longer you locked it for, the more you earn from ecosystem token staking.

  2. Multiplier from staking new ecosystem tokens: Stakers of newly launched ecosystem tokens receive higher multipliers in the token's first 60 days live post TGE.

  3. Dual Multipliers: During a token's first 60 days, both multipliers stack together for greater BioXP gains.

More details on Multipliers in the BioXP section.

Chain Availability

Initially, staking for ecosystem ecosystem assets will be available on Base, Ethereum, and Solana network, depending on the token: some tokens are already multichain. Support for more chains will be added in the future. BioDAO tokens live on Base include: VITA, HAIR, NEURON, PSY, ATH, CRYO, GROW, with more being added.
