Staking
Validator staking, delegation, and liquid staking on Lux Network
Lux Network uses a proof-of-stake consensus model. LUX holders can validate, delegate, or liquid-stake to earn rewards while securing the network.
Staking Options
| Method | Min Stake | Lock Period | Rewards | Governance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Validator | 2,000 LUX | 2 weeks min | Base + delegation fees | Direct |
| Delegation | 25 LUX | 2 weeks min | Validator-shared | Via validator |
| Liquid (xLUX) | None | None | Protocol fees + validator rewards | vLUX voting |
How Rewards Work
Validators earn rewards proportional to their uptime and stake weight. The P-Chain distributes rewards at the end of each staking period.
Validator Stake + Delegated Stake → Uptime-Weighted Rewards
