Staking
Provider staking
Stage 2 · PreviewBack the forwards you sell with $QUORIX collateral and earn USDC yield from protocol fees. Provider staking ships in Stage 2 — the panel below is a preview and is not live yet.
Once staking is live, this is where you’ll bond $QUORIX behind the offers you write and track your SLA collateral and USDC earnings.
How provider staking works
Post $QUORIX as SLA collateral
Every forward you write is backed by staked $QUORIX. When a buyer locks one of your offers, a slice of your stake is bonded to that position for its full term — proof you can honour the rate and volume you sold.
Earn USDC yield
Protocol fees from settled forwards flow back to providers pro-rata to bonded stake. Yield accrues in USDC — not emissions — so returns track real routed volume rather than an inflationary reward schedule.
Slashing keeps you honest
Under-deliver against an SLA and a portion of the bonded stake is slashed on-chain to make the affected buyer whole. Reliable providers keep their yield; the backstop is what lets buyers trust a fixed price.
Roadmap · Stage 2
Staking arrives with the LP-supply stage — once the forward marketplace has proven itself in production, providers post $QUORIX to write offers, back each sale with an SLA stake, and settle earnings in USDC.
