Stake BR for veBR governance participation

Learn the BR staking lifecycle: deposit BR, receive veBR, meet eligibility rules, vote in an epoch, and plan an eventual withdrawal through the cooldown.

Prepare to stake

Select the supported wallet and blockchain, confirm your BR balance, and read the required lock period. Staking should only be performed through a verified interface with a reviewed transaction; a displayed APR is a variable rate, not a guaranteed return.

After staking BR

A successful stake creates a governance position represented by veBR. The DAO may calculate effective votes using a time-dependent multiplier. Review the staking stats and veToken listing rather than inferring current eligibility from the size of the deposited amount alone.

When you can vote

Votes can be cast only when a governance voting window is active and an eligible gauge is available. A wallet that has staked recently may still be affected by warmup or epoch timing. The live Vote tab supplies the current deadline.

Unstaking and rewards

Published defaults include 28 days before unstaking and a 14-day waiting period after entering the exit queue. Review this separately from any claimable staking rewards, which depend on distributions and may carry over between epochs.

Use the governance dashboard for changing figures and the staking, voting or rewards pages for wallet-specific actions. Historical program details are provided as reference material.

Frequently asked questions

How does BR staking connect to voting?

Eligible BR staking creates veBR governance power, which is then used in the Bedrock DAO voting process according to the current rules.

What should I review before unstaking?

Review the minimum position duration, exit cooldown and any current governance implications before starting an unstake.
