Dukascopy Bank is applying changes for its staking reward programs to make their conditions more relevant to the coin’s price and the current stage of the project. Please see below.
Staking programs with a reward in EUR have become more affordable with a significantly lower threshold, as the Bank is decreasing the amount of coins required to participate in the EUR reward staking program from 20 000 DUK+ to only 5 000 DUK+. The current reward rates remain intact at 0.1 EUR and 0.5 EUR per Dukascoin reward rate level for 3-months and 1-year stakes respectively if the stakes are allocated in Blockchain. For the stakes placed in the Bank, the new quarterly reward rate is 0.09 EUR per Dukascoin and the yearly rate is 0.45 EUR per Dukascoin. The difference of reward rates between the options of coins allocation in the Bank or in Blockchain is to cover storage-related expenses of the Bank.
There is also a positive change for participants of the staking program with a reward in DUK+: previously, the total amount of coins allocated into the reward could not surpass 25 000 DUK+ on any given Multi-currency account. This limit has been raised to 50 000DUK+.
The changes will come in force as of the moment of the news publication.
