# Staking

Rewards from staking will be based on the following two tiers:

**Presale Staking** 

By staking $LNEX during the presale for a minimum period of 30 days, participants can secure up to 18% Annual Percentage Yield (APY) in passive income. This staking mechanism allows for the addition of additional tokens to your portfolio without affecting the existing APY rate. As a result, you can enhance your staking position and maximize returns while preserving the benefits of your initial APY commitment.

**Passive Income Staking**

Once the presale concludes and $LNEX tokens are trading on the open market, users will be able to stake their tokens and participate in the projects revenue sharing model. This model allocates a percentage of the projects revenue which is generated from trading and subscription fees and uses these funds to buy back $LNEX tokens from the open market. Once the tokens are purchased they are automatically redistributed to staked tokens as rewards.
