Staking for Revenue Sharing

Overview To earn a share of MaximizeAI’s protocol fees, you can stake your $MAXI tokens on our DAO page. By committing tokens to a lock period, you accrue rewards based on both the length of your lock and the platform’s revenue.

​ Choosing a Lock Duration Lock Periods: You select from preset durations (e.g., 30, 45, 90 days). Reward Multipliers: Longer locks grant higher APY—the platform rewards long-term commitment with increased yield. No Early Withdrawals: Once tokens are locked, they cannot be withdrawn before the period ends. ​ Post-Lock Choices Option A: Withdraw Staked Tokens You can end the position, ceasing further rewards. Option B: Remain Staked Continue earning at the same tier you achieved with your initial lock. There’s no need to relock or forfeit your existing APY multiplier. ​ Multiple Staking Positions You can stake more than once—for instance, 10,000 $MAXI for 15 days, then later 5000 $MAXI for 30 days. Each stake creates its own position with separate lock duration, start date, and APY tier.

​ Reward Distribution & Claiming Accumulation in TAO: As protocol fees are collected, your staking position accrues rewards in TAO. Claim Threshold: Once your rewards exceed a certain threshold (e.g., 10 USD in TAO), you can claim them.

Future Governance While day-to-day decisions remain with the MaximizeAI team initially, $MAXI holders are expected to gain more influence over time. Potential governance features may include:

On-Chain Proposals & Voting Allowing token holders to formally propose adjustments to platform fees, new features and more. Decentralized Decision-Making Gradually shifting control from the development team to token holders. No specific timeline is set for these governance rollouts, but active community engagement and security considerations will guide the transition.

​ Additional Potential Utilities Beyond staking-based revenue sharing, $MAXI may eventually see more utilities, such as:

Platform Fee Discounts Certain balances or staked amounts could yield reduced acces fees. Exclusive Beta Access Priority access to upcoming features or pilot programs. Community-Driven Grants Funding new integrations or community initiatives through DAO-controlled treasury proposals.
