Staking Rewards

Staking ELYS tokens provides multiple revenue streams and benefits. Here's a detailed breakdown of what you can earn:

Trading Fee Rewards

Spot Trading Fees

When users trade on the Elys spot markets, a portion of the trading fees is distributed to ELYS stakers in the form of USDC. This creates a direct correlation between platform usage and staker rewards.

Perpetual Trading Fees

Similar to spot trading, perpetual trading generates fees that are shared with ELYS stakers. These fees provide an additional USDC revenue stream, especially during high trading volume periods.

Transaction Fees

General platform interactions generate transaction fees that flow back to stakers, creating a steady stream of USDC rewards.
