Staking & Vaulting $AURA

Aura provides a straightforward and secure staking (vaulting) system for our native token, $AURA. By staking your tokens, you unlock valuable privileges such as enhanced voting power, increased fee-sharing opportunities, and the ability to propose new markets.


How to Stake Tokens

  1. Connect Your Wallet:

    • Sign in to Aura using your compatible crypto wallet.

  2. Navigate to the Vault:

    • Click on the "Vault" tab in the navigation toolbar at the top of the website.

  3. Select Your Tier:

    • Enter the number of $AURA tokens you wish to vault.

    • Your tier will automatically be assigned based on the amount of tokens staked.

  4. Confirm Your Stake:

    • Confirm the staking transaction in your wallet.

    • Your new tier status will take effect immediately upon confirmation.


How to Unlock Tokens

  • Navigate to the Vault:

    • Ensure you are signed in and click on the "Vault" tab at the top of the site.

  • Request Unlock:

    • Click the "Request Unlock" button to initiate your token unlocking.

    • Your unlock request will start a 7-day cooldown period.

  • Withdraw your Tokens:

    • After the 7-day period, you can simply withdraw your tokens via the withdraw tab on the Vault page.


Understanding the Cooldown Period

After requesting an unlock, your staked $AURA tokens enter a mandatory cooldown period of 7 days.

During this time:

  • Your tokens remain locked but will no longer contribute to your tier privileges.

  • After the cooldown ends, return to the Vault page to complete the withdrawal.

Important Notes:

  • Tokens remain secure during the cooldown and can only be withdrawn to your connected wallet.

  • After withdrawal, your tier status resets based on your remaining locked tokens.
