# Staking

## **Enhanced Chance Sweepstakes**

In the Playtoo ecosystem, staking $PLT tokens not only signifies a commitment to the platform's growth but also unlocks unique rewards. Building upon our [weekly sweepstake](../../playtoo-core/weekly-sweepstake), we introduce the "Enhanced Chance" staking bonus. Here's how it amplifies engagement and sustainability:

* **Volume-Based Probability:** The more $PLT tokens a user stakes, the higher their probability of winning in the sweepstakes. This mechanism incentivizes prolonged staking and deeper involvement within the ecosystem.
* **Stake for Tickets:** Each 1,000 $PLT staked grants the user an additional entry ticket into the sweepstake, augmenting their chances of success. It's a straightforward yet powerful boost that adds excitement to participation.
* **Exclusive 'Stake-to-Earn' Events:** Playtoo will periodically host 'stake-to-earn' events. By staking $PLT tokens for a predetermined period, users gain access to special sweepstakes. These events will feature larger prize pools and unique rewards, differentiating from standard sweepstakes.
* **Loyalty Multipliers**: Long-term stakers benefit from loyalty multipliers that enhance their sweepstakes tickets over time, acknowledging and rewarding their continued support for Playtoo.





## Staking Rewards Program

Playtoo's staking model is designed to enhance the value of $PLT tokens by rewarding long-term holders with attractive APYs. Our tiered system ensures that participants are recognized for their contribution to network stability and growth.

* **Starter Pool:** For holders staking up to 10,000 $PLT, we offer a foundational APY of **12%.** This pool is perfect for new entrants to the Playtoo ecosystem, providing a stable reward while they familiarize themselves with the platform's offerings.
* **Advanced Pool:** For those staking between 10,001 to 50,000 $PLT, the Silver Tier offers an enhanced APY of **17%.** This middle tier serves as an excellent progression for users looking to increase their stake and rewards.
* **Elite Pool:** The Gold Tier is reserved for dedicated supporters staking more than 50,001 $PLT, with a premium APY of **22%**. This tier is tailored for the most committed participants, offering the highest returns as a reflection of their significant support.
