$SILQ

Staking and treasury

Stake from your own wallet and earn $SILQ from a pre-funded reward pool, with no team custody. The treasury turns compute margin and fees into network funding, buybacks, and burns.

Staking on Streamflow

Staking runs on the Streamflow staking program on Solana, not on a contract of ours. Staked $SILQ sits in the stake pool's on-chain vault, which the program controls, and only your wallet can unstake it. There is no server that holds your funds, and no admin key that can seize or slash your stake. Staking opens at the $SILQ launch.

How rewards accrue

Pick a lock: 6 months at 1x weight or 1 year at 2x weight. Rewards accrue daily on stake × weight at a fixed rate, paid in $SILQ from the reward pool - not as a share of revenue. The planned rate is about 10% a year at 1x and about 20% a year at 2x. Claim them any time, even while the lock is running.

Pre-funded rewards

The team deposits $SILQ into the reward pool ahead of time, and a deposit cannot be taken back: it can only go to stakers. If the pool ever runs short, claims wait for the next top-up, and Unstake without rewards still returns your $SILQ once the lock has ended.

Actions

Stake

Lock $SILQ for 6 months (1x weight) or 1 year (2x weight). Your wallet receives receipt tokens for the stake; Unstake needs them back.

Unstake

When the lock ends, take back your $SILQ together with any unclaimed rewards. There is no early exit, and rewards keep accruing until you unstake.

Claim

Collect accrued $SILQ rewards to your wallet at any time, even while the lock is running.

Unstake without rewards

If the reward pool is ever short, Unstake fails because it claims first. This exit returns your $SILQ once the lock has ended and gives up the unclaimed rewards.

The treasury

The treasury is where the compute margin and a share of $SILQ trading fees collect. It funds the network and the buyback engine, and it pays nothing to stakers: their rewards come from the pre-funded reward pool.

burn

Buys back $SILQ from the market and burns it, permanently removing supply

USDC

Credit packs are paid in USDC, and workers are paid in USDC for every paid job

live

Burn, buyback, and staked totals surface on the treasury dashboard

Preview until wired

The treasury dashboard renders with clearly-labelled preview figures until the on-chain indexer is connected, at which point burned, bought-back, and staked totals update live.

Custody guarantees

Only you unstake. Your stake is an entry keyed to your wallet in the Streamflow program, and unstaking it takes your wallet's signature; no team key opens the stake vault.
No slashing. There is no admin function to seize or reduce your stake.
Funded rewards stay with stakers. The reward pool has no end date, so the team cannot claw back what it deposits. Lock lengths and weights are fixed when the pool is created; the admin can change the reward rate, but changes must be at least a year apart.

Keep your receipt tokens

Staking sends receipt tokens to your wallet, and Unstake burns them to release your $SILQ. Do not send, sell or burn them, including with tools that clean up unknown tokens, or you cannot unstake. See Token and economics for the full revenue model.
