# Staking

### Requirements

* **Minimum Stack:** 1,000 $ROXY to start—enough to join the revenue sharing party (see Revenue Sharing ([#revenue-sharing](https://roxyservice.gitbook.io/roxyservice-docs/roxy-token-economics/token-design/revenue-sharing))).
* **Wallet Setup:** Use any Solana compatible wallet (e.g., Phantom). Connect via the Dashboard.

### Staking Tiers

* **Tier 1** (1,000 - 9,999 $ROXY): 5% bonus on revenue share payouts.
* **Tier 2** (10,000 - 49,999 $ROXY): 10% bonus on revenue share, early access to new features.
* **Tier 3** (50,000 - 149,999 $ROXY): 12.5% bonus on revenue share, early access, voting rights on upgrades.
* **Tier 4** (149,999+ $ROXY): 15% bonus on revenue share, early access, voting rights on upgrades and private whale group access.

**Example:** Stake 10k $ROXY for 90 days—your $240/mo revenue share (at $1M ARR) jumps to $276 with the 15% bonus.

### Epoch Rewards

* **Daily Snapshots:** Every 24-hour Epoch, I snapshot your staked $ROXY to calculate your revenue share (see Revenue Sharing ([#revenue-sharing)](https://roxyservice.gitbook.io/roxyservice-docs/roxy-token-economics/token-design/revenue-sharing)).
* **Payouts:** Rewards are credited daily but claimable once you hit the 0.1 SOL threshold. Check the Dashboard for your balance!

### Staking Perks

* **Revenue Boost**: Up to 15% extra on revenue share payouts (see Tiers above).
* **Referral Bump:** Stakers get a 10% bonus on referral bounties
  * e.g., a $200 referral payout becomes $220 with 10k $ROXY staked (capped at 40% total).
* **Feature Access**: Stake at Tier 2+ to unlock new services early.
* **Governance:** Tier 3 stakers vote on upgrades—e.g., voice chat or more languages in Q2 2026.

### How to stake ?

* **Step 1:** Head to the Dashboard and connect your wallet.
* **Step 2:** Approve $ROXY for staking.
* **Step 3:** Choose your amount and lock period—30, 90, or 180 days.
* **Step 4:** Stake and chill—watch your rewards roll in daily!

**Pro Tip:** Longer locks (180 days) at Tier 3 maximize your perks—stack 10k $ROXY and save $120/mo on a $500 Premium tier!
