Everything you need to put your $XELQ to work. Two transactions, one vault, continuous wETH yield — streamed to you every block from Xelqor protocol revenue.
Before the vault can accept your $XELQ, it needs explicit permission to move tokens on your behalf. This is a standard ERC-20 approval — you are authorising the staking contract to pull a specific amount from your wallet. It costs one transaction and a small amount of ETH for gas.
You only need to do this once if you approve a large enough amount up front. Approving the max uint256 value (effectively unlimited) is the common pattern — it means you will never be asked to approve again regardless of how much you stake in future.
Once the approval is confirmed, head to the staking interface and enter the amount you want to deposit. The vault mints you sXELQ shares in return — these represent your proportional claim on the pool. The share price starts at 1:1 and only increases over time as protocol revenue accumulates.
The minimum deposit enforced by the frontend is 100,000,000 $XELQ. There is no maximum. Your sXELQ is fully transferable and can be held in any wallet.
The share price you see on the staking page — displayed as "1 sXELQ = X XELQ" — will gradually increase as wETH rewards compound in value. When you eventually redeem your sXELQ, you get back more XELQ than you put in, plus any unclaimed wETH rewards are automatically swept to your wallet in the same transaction.
The moment your deposit confirms, your position begins accruing wETH. Rewards are not dripped on a daily or weekly schedule — they accumulate per block, continuously, proportional to your share of the total pool.
Xelqor protocol revenue is deposited into the vault on a rolling 7-day streaming window. When a new batch of rewards arrives, any unvested amount from the previous window rolls forward and the schedule resets. This prevents last-minute staking from gaming a distribution event.
Your claimable wETH balance is visible on the staking page under the "Claimable Now" indicator. It updates every block. You can claim at any time using the Claim wETH button — this does not affect your staked position at all.
There is no lockup, no queue, no cooldown period. When you are ready to exit, navigate to the Unstake tab, enter the number of sXELQ shares you want to burn, and confirm the transaction.
The vault calculates exactly how much $XELQ you are owed based on the current share price — which will be higher than when you entered if the pool has accumulated rewards. Your outstanding wETH is swept to your wallet in the same transaction automatically.
Partial unstakes work exactly as you would expect — burn some of your sXELQ, keep the rest earning. Your claimable wETH is always settled in full on any redeem, regardless of whether you are exiting partially or entirely.
Approve once, deposit once, then let the protocol do its job. Monitor your position, claim wETH whenever you like, and exit any time with no friction. The vault does not hold your tokens hostage — your sXELQ is your receipt and your key out.
