# Staking Mechanism

90,000,000 BS (9% of max supply) will be used for staking & liquidity mining incentives, distributed over a period of 365 days.

Users can choose to stake their [BS-WETH LP (Uniswap V2)](https://etherscan.io/address/0x7B2f8f7E436617fE5160E8368Cf82ac278EA3503) tokens to receive a share of the liquidity mining incentives, paid in BS token.

* There is a minimum 14 day staking lockup duration, from which users may choose to withdraw their locked stake at any time and burn 50% of their total earned rewards
* Users can choose longer lockup durations in exchange for a higher rewards multiplier, but are unable to withdraw the locked stake before the lock ends.
* Users who choose longer lockup durations cannot withdraw their locked stakes, but can choose to claim 50% of their total earned rewards and burn the other half.
