  Vote on proposals, emissions, and ecosystem upgrades.

  Certain staking tiers unlock **AI trading bots**, including premium-only strategies.
* **Boosted Farm Rewards**\
  Stakers receive multipliers when also farming eligible LP pools.

  Long-term stakers may qualify for future airdrops or whitelist access to ecosystem launches.

KaspaFinance offers **optional auto-staking**:

* Re-stakes earned rewards into your original position.
* Enhances APY over time via compounding.
* Can be toggled on/off per stake.
