A clear reference for staking mechanics, bonuses, share rate behavior, penalties, and how to use the dApp safely.
Quick Start
The fastest path from wallet → stake → end stake.
- 1) Connect your wallet on Monad. If your wallet asks, approve adding/switching to Monad Mainnet (chainId 143).
- 2) Enter stake amount and lock days, then review the Estimates (unlock date, bonus multipliers, estimated shares).
- 3) Click Stake. Your bNote converts to shares for the lock duration.
- 4) On or after unlock, click End to mint back your principal + yield (penalties may apply).
Key Parameters
Core staking values and limits used by the system.
How Staking Works
Staking converts bNote into shares. Shares determine yield.
When you start a stake, your bNote is converted into shares. Yield accrues based on shares. When you end a stake, the protocol mints back tokens based on your principal, bonuses, and the share rate at the time you end.
LPB & BPB Bonuses
Two bonuses reward longer locks and bigger stakes.
Longer locks receive a bonus that increases with time: +20% per 365 days, capped at +200% at 10 years.
Bigger stakes receive up to +10% bonus. It scales proportionally until you reach the BPB cap amount.
The share rate can ratchet upward when a matured stake’s effective payout would otherwise allow more shares than it originally purchased. This “up-only” behavior is designed to protect earlier stakers and maintain fairness over time.
Early & Late Penalties
Penalties scale linearly and can reduce payout if you end too early or too late.
Ending before the unlock date applies an early penalty. It’s highest near the start and decreases linearly toward zero at unlock.
Ending long after unlock applies a late penalty. It starts at zero on unlock and increases linearly the longer you wait.
Worked Examples
The Estimates panel updates live as you change stake amount and days.
Use the app’s Estimates panel to explore scenarios. Adjust amount and lock days to see how bonuses, shares, and unlock timing change.
Using the dApp
Where to start a stake, manage active stakes, and export your data.
- • Start a stake from the Actions area (Start a Stake).
- • Manage active stakes in Your Stakes.
- • End a stake using the End controls in the table (or by index, if available).
- • Export or copy table data as CSV when provided.
Analytics Explained
KPIs and charts help you understand staking distribution and unlocks.
Analytics typically include price context, wallet value, estimated market cap, staked % metrics, share rate, and charts that visualize unlock timing and maturity buckets.
Mobile Wallet Tips
Best practices for staking from mobile wallets.
- • Use an in-app browser (MetaMask, Rabby, Trust, etc.) when possible.
- • If using WalletConnect, approve the session and allow popups as needed.
- • On iOS, disabling content blockers can help with signing flows.
Troubleshooting
Common fixes for connection and UI issues.
- • Connection issues: switch to Monad Mainnet, then reconnect.
- • WalletConnect issues: clear old sessions in your wallet and try again.
- • UI looks odd: hard refresh (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + R).

bNote Treasury Vesting
A majority of supply is time-locked and released on-chain according to a fixed schedule.
To strengthen long-term alignment, improve transparency, and mitigate treasury risk, the bNote protocol uses a time-based treasury vesting structure on Monad. This ensures that a majority of the bNote supply cannot be moved or sold instantly, and is instead released gradually according to a deterministic, on-chain schedule. This change was made proactively to improve trust guarantees for users, liquidity providers, and third-party risk engines, and it has already resulted in the removal of external “suspicious token” warnings.
The vesting contract exposes standard view and release functions. Anyone can verify how many bNote are locked, how many are releasable, and the beneficiary address directly on-chain.
