Staking is the simplest way to put your $TRT to work. You lock your tokens, and in return you earn a continuous share of treasury revenue. This guide walks you through it from zero — no prior experience assumed.
What staking actually does
When you stake, you commit your tokens to the staking contract for a chosen period. In exchange, you receive a stream of rewards. The longer you commit, the larger your reward multiplier — the protocol rewards patience.
How to stake, step by step
- 1Connect your wallet to the staking page.
- 2Enter the amount of $TRT you want to stake.
- 3Choose a lock period — longer locks earn a higher multiplier.
- 4Confirm the transaction and approve the stake.
- 5That's it. Rewards begin accruing immediately, block by block.
How lock periods change your multiplier
The multiplier is the lever that turns time into yield. A flexible, short lock earns the base rate. Committing for longer steps that rate up meaningfully, because you are giving the protocol more predictable, stable capital to work with.
“Think of the lock period as a dial: the further you turn it toward commitment, the more the protocol shares with you.”
How rewards accrue
Rewards do not arrive in one lump at the end. They accrue continuously, so your balance grows steadily for the entire time your tokens are staked. You can watch it tick up in real time on the dashboard.
- Rewards compound as they accrue — no manual reinvesting required.
- There is no penalty for holding to the end of your chosen lock.
- When the lock expires, your principal and rewards are yours to withdraw or restake.
A note for first-timers
If you have never staked before, start small. Stake a modest amount with a short lock to get comfortable with the flow, then scale up once you understand how the multiplier and accrual work. There is no rush — the mechanism will be here.
