Staking Hub

FAQ

What is the Staking Hub?

The Staking Hub is novel dual incentive platform by the team of NodeOps which brought you state of the art NaaS, Compute, and RPC services. Staking Hub is a platform where you can stake your supported tokens, and receive a stake drop. This means that, while earning the associated APR, you also earn stNODE which can later be redeemed for $NODE tokens.

How long does the Staking Hub campaign last?

Each campaign with the integrated projects will have their own timeline for e.g. with Hyperliquid the campaign will last for 120 days while the campaign with Beam is for 16 days.

How do I participate in the Staking Hub campaign?

To participate:

Do I need technical knowledge to participate in the campaign?

No, you don’t need advanced technical knowledge. The process is straightforward: stake your tokens on the NodeOps Validator and register on the staking portal https://stake.nodeops.network. The portal provides step-by-step instructions, and support is available if you encounter issues.

Is there a minimum or maximum amount of tokens I need to stake?

There is no specified minimum or maximum amount of tokens to stake in this campaign. However, the more tokens you stake, the more stNODE points you can earn, increasing your potential $NODE rewards. Check the staking portal for any specific guidelines.

Can I unstake my tokens during the campaign?

Each campaign has its own period, and staked tokens are typically locked for the duration to earn stNODE points. After the campaign ends, you can redeem your stNODE points based on the unlock schedule. Check the staking portal for specific unstaking policies.

What are stNODE points?

stNODE points are rewards earned by staking your tokens during the campaign. These points can be redeemed for $NODE tokens after the campaign concludes.

What is the total reward pool for the campaign?

The total reward pool is dependent on the partner for e.g. for Hyperliquid we have 1,000,000 stNODE points for 120 days campaign while for Beam we have 500,000 stNODE points for Beam's epoch 1 (which runs for 30 Days; ending May 1st 2025).

When can I redeem my stNODE points for $NODE?

Redemption of stNODE points to $NODE will begin after the conclusion of the respective campaign/s.

What is the redemption cycle for stNODE to $NODE?

The redemption of stNODE points to $NODE follows a tiered unlock schedule:

  • 15 Days Unlock: 10% of stNODE rewards
  • 30 Days Unlock: 25% of stNODE rewards
  • 90 Days Unlock: 50% of stNODE rewards
  • 150 Days Unlock: 100% of stNODE rewards

Can I redeem all my stNODE points at once?

No, redemption follows the unlock schedule above. You can redeem a portion of your stNODE points based on the time elapsed since the campaign ends, with full redemption available after 150 days.

What is $NODE, and why is it valuable?

$NODE is the native token of the NodeOps ecosystem, which may be used for governance, rewards, or other functionalities in the future. By earning stNODE points, you’re positioning yourself to receive $NODE tokens, which could have value as the NodeOps platform grows.

What happens if I don’t stake $HYPE or $BEAM during the campaign?

If you don’t stake $HYPE during the 120-day campaign period or $BEAM during the 16-day campaign period you will not earn stNODE points and will not be eligible to redeem $NODE tokens through this campaign.
