What is XOM Staking?

Staking locks your XOM tokens to secure the network and earn passive rewards. You stake directly from your own wallet to the staking contract — OmniBazaar never takes custody of your tokens or pools them with anyone else's.

How to Stake

  1. Navigate to Earn > Staking.
  2. Choose your staking amount and duration commitment.
  3. Review the projected rewards and confirm.
  4. Your XOM is locked and begins earning rewards immediately.

Claiming Rewards

Staking rewards are distributed from the network's block-reward emission, most of which flows to liquidity providers through the overflow pool. Claim accumulated rewards at any time from the staking dashboard, or enable auto-compounding to reinvest rewards automatically.

Early Withdrawal

Flexible staking (Tier 0) allows withdrawal at any time. Time-locked staking applies a substantial penalty for early withdrawal. Always check the lock-up terms before depositing.

Staking and Participation Score

Staking contributes up to 24 points to your Participation Score: up to 15 points for staking amount (Tier 1–5) and up to 9 points for duration commitment (Tier 0–3). A score of 50+ qualifies you to run a validator node.
