Staking

The protocol features dedicated staking pools for both $ART and $GF. Participants can stake their $ART and/or $GF tokens to support ecosystem growth while earning attractive rewards.

For the first ten years after protocol launch, a fixed percentage of governance tokens will be distributed annually as staking incentives:

• $ART Staking Pool: 0.5% of the total $GF supply will be distributed each year as rewards to $ART stakers.

• $GF Staking Pool: 1.5% of the total $GF supply will be distributed annually as rewards to $GF stakers.

Users can choose between flexible (no lockup), 30-day, and 90-day staking periods. We assign boost factors of 1, 1.8, and 3.8 respectively to these staking durations.

If one decides to unlock their staked tokens early, it will not affect the rewards they have already earned. However, a penalty of 5% of the staked tokens will be deducted.

These staking pools are designed to incentivize long-term participation, strengthen network alignment, and reward users who actively contribute to protocol stability and governance. All rewards are distributed automatically via smart contracts, ensuring transparency and fairness for all participants.
