XDC Liquid Staking FAQ
This FAQ covers common questions about the XDC Liquid Staking System, which includes XDC NFTs, XDC Vaults, and XDC Masternode Vaults.
General Questions
What is XDC Liquid Staking?
XDC Liquid Staking allows users to stake XDC and earn rewards while maintaining liquidity. Staked XDC generates $pstXDC, which can be used in DeFi without locking up funds. Users can stake in three ways:
XDC NFTs – Rewards from masternodes and PrimeFi XDC ecosystem.
XDC Vaults – Open staking with no minimum requirements.
XDC Masternode Vaults – High-value staking for 10M+ XDC holders.
What is $pstXDC?
$pstXDC is a liquid staking derivative (LSD) token issued when users stake XDC. It allows users to earn staking rewards while using their staked assets in DeFi.
Where can I trade $pstXDC?
$pstXDC can be traded on XSWAP DEX, where it is paired with XDC.
What happens when I unstake?
When you unstake, the corresponding $pstXDC tokens are burned, and your staked XDC is returned to your wallet.
Can I transfer my staking position?
Yes! XDC NFTs and XDC Vaults can be sold or transferred on Primeport.xyz.
What happens when I claim rewards?
$pstXDC gets minted to the wallet.
XDC Masternode Vaults receive XDC directly.
How does the team distribute rewards?
The team sends the rewards to the smart contract, which distributes the XDC to the NFTs.
Users receive their rewards when they claim.
XDC NFTs
What are XDC Staking NFTs?
XDC Staking NFTs allow users to stake XDC while benefiting from unique rarity-based multipliers. These NFTs provide an interactive and customizable staking experience.
How do XDC NFTs work?
XDC is staked inside the NFT.
The NFT earns rewards based on its staking level and rarity.
Users can merge NFTs to create higher-rarity NFTs with better rewards.
Users can lock NFTs into masternodes for additional staking bonuses.
What is the Merge System?
The Merge System allows users to combine two NFTs of the same rarity to create a higher-rarity NFT with better staking benefits.
Can I withdraw my XDC from an NFT?
Yes, but withdrawing XDC burns $pstXDC in the process. The NFT itself is not burned unless merged.
How do I sell my XDC NFT?
XDC NFTs can be listed and auctioned on PrimePort.xyz, where buyers can purchase them along with their staked XDC.
XDC Vaults
What are XDC Vaults?
XDC Vaults are on-chain staking contracts where users can stake XDC and receive $pstXDC in return, enabling flexible and liquid staking.
How do XDC Vaults work?
Users stake XDC in a vault and receive $pstXDC tokens.
$pstXDC can be used in DeFi while still earning staking rewards.
When unstaking, $pstXDC is burned, and XDC is returned.
Who can use XDC Vaults?
Anyone can stake in XDC Vaults. There are no minimum staking requirements.
How do I withdraw my XDC from a Vault?
To withdraw XDC:
Burn the required amount of $pstXDC.
Your XDC will be returned to your wallet.
Can I transfer my XDC Vault?
Yes! Vaults can be transferred or sold on PrimePort.xyz, provided the owner holds all corresponding $pstXDC tokens.
XDC Masternode Vaults
What are XDC Masternode Vaults?
XDC Masternode Vaults allow large holders (10M+ XDC) to stake directly into masternodes and earn exclusive rewards.
What are the benefits of using Masternode Vaults?
Higher staking rewards compared to standard XDC Vaults.
No need for technical setup – automated staking.
Exclusive reward tiers for large-scale participants.
Can I unstake from an XDC Masternode Vault?
Yes, but unstaking may have a cooldown period due to masternode operations.
Can I transfer my Masternode Vault?
Yes! Masternode Vaults can be sold or transferred on PrimePort.xyz, ensuring ownership and rewards are passed to the new holder.
Security & Restrictions
What happens if I don’t hold my $pstXDC?
You cannot claim rewards if you do not hold 100% of your corresponding $pstXDC.
You cannot mint a new Vault if you owe $pstXDC to the contract.
You cannot stake more XDC until you settle your $pstXDC balance.
What if my NFT is locked in a masternode?
Locked NFTs cannot be merged, withdrawn, or burned until unlocked.
Locked NFTs earn an extra 7% annual staking rewards.
How is $pstXDC burned?
$pstXDC is burned when users withdraw their staked XDC from Vaults or NFTs.
This ensures that rewards remain balanced and prevent inflationary abuse.
