Staking

Staking the $AETH token is one of the main passive participation and strategic engagement mechanics within the Aetherion Chronicles ecosystem. It allows token holders to earn rewards, accumulate exclusive benefits, and simultaneously strengthen the stability of the game's economy.

But it’s not just a financial opportunity—it’s a true signal of belonging and trust in the project.


What is Staking in Aetherion Chronicles?

Staking means locking your $AETH tokens for a defined period in exchange for rewards and/or privileges within the ecosystem.

In Aetherion Chronicles, staking plays an active role, connecting both the economic side and participation in the governance of the world.


Staking Rewards

Users who stake their tokens will receive a variety of benefits, including:

  1. $AETH as a Reward

    • Regular distribution of $AETH tokens from reward pools

    • Variable yield percentages based on staking duration

    • Sustainable and balanced APY to prevent inflation

  2. Access to Exclusive Content

    • Special events for stakers only (Elite PvE, Seasonal Dungeons)

    • Gacha tickets or dedicated NFT summons

    • Rare skins and cosmetic items

  3. Priority in Future Features

    • Early access to new features (e.g., NFT staking, advanced Fusions)

    • Automatic whitelist for NFT sales or special collections

    • “Staker Founder” badges and titles visible on profiles

  4. Governance Rights (On-Chain)

Security & Transparency

  • All staking will take place through the official dashboard, with audited smart contracts and a clear interface.

  • Funds will be locked on-chain in secure smart contracts and visible on the Solana explorer

  • Rewards will be distributed automatically, cyclically, and transparently.


Economic Sustainability

The staking system is designed for long-term viability, with:

  • Reward pools funded by marketplace fees, residual burns, and treasury funds

  • The option to lock tokens during the pre-launch phase for future boosts

  • Inflation control mechanics: monthly caps and dynamic reward pools
