How to Stake $BUU Token

Staking your $BUU Tokens is one of the most effective ways to earn rewards and unlock exclusive features on the Buu AI platform. With competitive token and credit APRs, staking allows you to support the ecosystem while gaining tangible benefits, but it comes with a 3-month lock period that every user should understand before participating. This guide explains everything you need to know about how to stake, what you’ll earn, and how to maximize your returns. 🏦 What Is Staking? Staking means locking your $BUU token for a fixed period of 3 months in exchange for: - Token-based reward yield - Credit bonuses to generate more 3D assets - Unlocking exclusive features, perks, and recognition Once you stake, your tokens are locked for the full 3-month period. You can unstake only after this cycle ends. 💰 Staking Rewards Overview Here’s what you earn when staking your $BUU token: - 20% APR in $BUU token (Annual Percentage Rate, calculated based on your locked amount) - 30% APR in credits, based on current value per credit - $5.05 is the current value of one credit - Credits are awarded immediately upon each new deposit - Credits unlock after 3 months, and can be used or restaked - Relocking credits after each unlock boosts your total return Rewards are calculated using live token and credit rates. APRs are subject to change depending on the availability of the platform’s rewards pool. 🔐 How to Stake Your $BUU Token 1. Log in to your Buu AI account 2. Navigate to your Wallet section 3. Select the Stake Tokens option 4. Enter how many $BUU tokens you'd like to lock 5. Confirm your transaction and begin your 3-month staking cycle Your stake becomes active immediately. You will see your pending rewards and credit bonuses in your staking dashboard. 🔓 What Happens After 3 Months? When the 3-month lock ends, you can: - Unstake your $BUU token and withdraw them from the contract - Use your unlocked credits to generate new 3D assets - Relock your entire stake to continue earning both token and credit APR Relocking is optional but recommended to maximize your long-term earnings. 🧠 Example Scenario This is not financial advice and it is simulated case scenarios: If you stake $1000 worth of $BUU token: - You earn approximately $200 per year in tokens, assuming a 20% APR - You earn around $300 in generation credits annually, assuming you relock every 3 months - Your total return compounds over time if you consistently restake your unlocked credits Actual results vary depending on the live credit rate and total pool participation. By staking your $BUU token, you become a core part of the Buu AI creative economy. You earn while you create, and your stake helps power the next generation of 3D tools for everyone.
