Staking Other Assets

In addition to staking BIO, you can also stake tokens from across the Bio Protocol ecosystem—such as those from BioAgents, IP-Tokens, and BioDAOs—to earn a significant share of the daily BioXP emissions. This is often the most effective way to accumulate the BioXP needed to participate in new project launches.

How it Works

The staking mechanism for ecosystem assets 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.

Chain Availability

Initially, staking for ecosystem ecosystem assets will only be available on the Base network. Support for ecosystem chains will be added in the future. BioDAO tokens live on Base include: VITA, HAIR, NEURON, PSY, ATH, CRYO, GROW, with more being added.

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