Staking and locking

How does staking work within Nereus?

Staking is recognised as a crucial facet of maintaining liquidity, loyalty, and rewarding participants. Nereus will offer an attractive reward to those that stake WXT within the protocol. Staked funds may be withdrawn at any time, and no penalties will apply.

How does locking work within Nereus?

Locking occurs within Nereus when liquidity is locked in a time-lock smart contract. Nereus has opted for a three-month lock up period. It will not be possible to terminate a lock early once the contract is executed. This will be rewarded by dispersing the early-vesting penalty fees, and all users with locked funds will benefit from this incentive, after the three-month period.
