Staking

Where long-term commitment meets real rewards

Sharing Success With The Community

We believe that any success from dApp.Build should be shared with the community — not just in the short term, but over the long run.

Fees generated from the platform will be automatically distributed to stakers in proportion to their staked amount. Rewards can be claimed at any time by the user too.

A slightly more technical explanation on the staking mechanism:

The staking contract maintains a global accumulated rewards per share value, with rewards distributed in SOL. Whenever fees are generated (e.g., from trading activity), SOL is sent to the staking contract and this value is incremented by the ratio of the newly received SOL to the total stake amount.

Global accumulated rewards per share += new SOL / total staked

This ensures that each staker’s pending rewards increase proportionally based on their share of the total staked amount.

Each staker also tracks a personal rewards per share value, which records the global value at the time they last claimed or updated their rewards.

A user's pending rewards are calculated as follows:

Pending User Rewards = User’s staked amount × (Current accumulated rewards per share − User's last accumulated rewards per share)

Upon claiming, the user's rewards per share is updated to the current global accumulated rewards per share value.

Importance of Staking

Beyond claiming rewards, staking serves an important role in the dApp.Build ecosystem through governance.

With their staked tokens, users can vote on key platform configurations — including maximum vesting allocation, selling penalty fees, and minimum commitment round target thresholds, among others.

Users can also vote and decide on the sale of graduated projects' tokens, and the schedule of redistributing these sales proceeds back to the staking contract.

These are critical elements that shape the direction and success of dApp.Build.

Note: any large-scale sale of tokens will likely be conducted over-the-counter (OTC) to avoid negatively impacting a project’s token price in liquidity pools.

Unstaking Locking Period

Similar to dApps such as dYdX and Axelar, dApp.Build will implement a 14-day unstaking period. During this time, unstaked amounts will not accrue rewards and will be released only after the lock period ends.

This approach provides greater economic security and stability for the token, particularly during volatile market conditions. It also helps protect our governance process from flash attacks or vote manipulation.

Most importantly, it aligns users with the platform’s long-term vision — encouraging sustainable decisions over short-term gains that may harm the ecosystem.

Through staking, the community shares in the success of dApp.Build and becomes an active force in shaping its future — ensuring that growth is not only distributed, but collectively directed.
