# Staking

## **Simple Staking**

Users can stake their $LVLQ and get the full benefits of owning the tokens. Simple Staking rewards long term believers in the protocols with Staking APY, governance rights, fee share, $IQ rewards multiplier, referral boost and more. 

By staking their $LVLQ, participants can elect to lock it for different periods of time granting higher benefits the longer the tokens are locked. A user requesting to unstake its token before the end of the lock period will see a partial amount of their $LVLQ burned, incentivizing long term commitment. 

## **$LVLQ LP Token Staking**

Soon after launch, LevelQ will incentivize capital allocators to deposit in its $LVLQ DEX pools by rewarding points and tokens for staking of DEX LP tokens of $LVLQ pairs. While aware that is can lead to attracting mercenary capital, we’ll launch soon after the bond mechanism to build Protocol Owned Liquidity.

## **Bond To LP**

In the Bond To LP staking vault (BTLP), users can stake $USDT or $TON and receive discounted $LVLQ while forfeiting their Bond To LP vault token. More details will be shared soon.

## **Vault LP Staking**    

Staking of vault LP token will be available, rewarding users long term commitment with higher reward rate along with their points and reward multiplier from $LVLQ Simple Staking.
