Creator Staking

Staking is required for creators to publish Efficiency Assets (EAs).
It aligns incentives and ensures accountability.

How Staking Works​

  • Creators deposit $LST into a staking contract
  • Stake is locked while EA is active
  • Stake is slashed for violations
  • Stake is released when EA is delisted

Staking Requirements​

  • Minimum stake set by governance
  • Higher stake may boost visibility
  • Stake amount scales with:
    • Number of EAs published
    • Reputation score
    • Marketplace demand

Slashing Conditions​

Stake may be partially or fully slashed if:

  • EA is plagiarized
  • EA receives repeated low ratings
  • EA violates community guidelines
  • EA is fraudulent or misleading

Benefits of Staking​

  • Builds trust with students
  • Increases reputation weight
  • Unlocks accelerator eligibility
  • Signals commitment to quality
