Staking

$XI staking is a core pillar of token utility and the platform’s real-yield model. Users can stake $XI to earn rewards in multiple forms.

Stake Rewards

Staking $Xi provides early adopters with base rewards through a dedicated emissions pool. Xi has allocated 100 million $Xi (5% of the total supply) to be distributed over the first two years, incentivizing users to bootstrap the network. To further encourage long-term participation, vested staking tiers offer bonus yields:

Level	Vesting Period	APR Base	Bonus in $Xi
1	3 months	Variable	+1%
2	9 months	Variable	+3%
3	18 months	Variable	+7%

Users who commit for longer durations receive higher multipliers on their rewards. An unstake fee may apply for early withdrawals, with part of that fee redistributed to other stakers, discouraging churn.

Ecosystem Revenue Sharing

Beyond token emissions, $Xi stakers earn real yield from platform activity. Xi allocates 10% of all Trading Agent fees—including trading volume and potentially performance fees—directly to the staking pool.

Even after the emissions pool ends, fee sharing continues, sustaining staking rewards through real platform usage. Stakers benefit from Xi’s growth, whether they actively trade or not, by receiving a share of the fees generated by the entire ecosystem.
