🌐 Overview

Hemi Stake provides a seamless way for users to earn rewards by locking up assets within the Hemi ecosystem. Unlike traditional Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mechanisms, staking on Hemi does not involve securing the network or slashing risks. Instead, it enables users to deposit assets into specialized reward contracts to participate in yield opportunities across partner protocols.

Key Benefits:

• No Slashing Risk – Assets are never used for network validation.

• Flexible Deposits & Withdrawals – No bonding periods; stake and unstake anytime.

• Multi-Asset Support – Stake Bitcoin, Ethereum, and stablecoins assets.

• Ecosystem-Wide Rewards – Earn incentives from Hemi and partner networks.

🔍 How It Works

Hemi’s staking contracts function differently from PoS staking by offering a reward-based deposit model:

• Users deposit assets into smart contracts designed for staking rewards.

• Rewards accumulate over time, distributed by Hemi and integrated partners.

• No lock-up requirements – Users can unstake at any time.
