Staking
🔒 Staking Overview
Bullish Social lets you stake your $BUSO to earn passive rewards, gain staking badges, and increase your profile visibility on the platform.
You can choose from two staking types:
- Flexible Staking – Withdraw anytime, lower rewards
- Locked Staking – Lock tokens for higher APR and stronger recognition
💰 Staking Rewards
| Type | Lock Period | Estimated APR |
|---|---|---|
| Flexible | None | 5.5% |
| Locked (Short) | 30 Days | 12% |
| Locked (Medium) | 90 Days | 18% |

Rewards are paid in $BUSO and can be claimed anytime.
Note
APR values are estimated and may change based on DAO decisions or market activity.
