Mainnet Rollout Phase 2: Exchanges & Staking Program
Hello Voiagers and Future Explorers,
As we move closer to the full launch of the Voi mainnet, we are excited to share details about an essential component of our ecosystem — the Voi staking program. Staking is a crucial part of securing the network and earning rewards, and we’re thrilled to offer a program that provides various opportunities for our community to participate and benefit.
Staking on the Voi network is designed to reward those who actively contribute to the security and stability of the blockchain. As we initiate the staking program, we want to ensure that all Voiagers are fully informed about how to participate and maximize their rewards.
Key Dates and Events:
September 26: Exchange Listings Begin
Voi tokens will start trading on exchanges.
This marks the first opportunity for our community to acquire Voi tokens through exchanges. With the initial exchange listings going live, you’ll be able to start securing the tokens needed to participate in the staking program. Each exchange listing will not only provide access to Voi tokens but also increase the visibility and reach of the Voi ecosystem globally.
September 26: DeFi Liquidity Bootstrapping
Launch of DeFi liquidity pools.
In parallel with the exchange listings, we’ll be bootstrapping liquidity in decentralized exchanges (DEXes). This ensures that Voi tokens are readily available for trading and staking, and it also supports a robust market for Voi tokens, contributing to the overall health of the ecosystem.
September 30: Week 1 of Staking Lockup
The first week of staking lockup begins.
During this week, participants who lock up their Voi tokens will receive the highest possible staking bonus. Importantly, staking contracts will be fully funded from the day lockup and vesting begin, ensuring that you receive the entire bonus you’re entitled to. Even while your tokens are locked and vesting, both your staked tokens and the airdropped bonus tokens will be immediately available to secure the network. This means you can start earning block rewards right away, maximizing your participation and rewards from day one.
October 7: Week 2 of Staking Lockup
The second week of staking lockup begins.
In Week 2, staking bonuses will still be attractive, offering the second-highest reward tier. If you missed the first week, this is still a great opportunity to earn significant rewards by staking your tokens. Just like in Week 1, your tokens and bonus tokens will be immediately available to help secure the network and earn block rewards, even while they are locked up.
October 14: Week 3 of Staking Lockup
The third week of staking lockup begins.
As we enter Week 3, the staking bonuses will be slightly reduced, but there are still valuable rewards to be earned. This week is ideal for those looking to stake their tokens with a moderate bonus. Again, your staked tokens and the associated bonuses will be active and working for you, securing the network and earning block rewards.
October 21: Week 4 of Staking Lockup
The fourth and final week of staking lockup begins.
The last week to lock up your tokens with a bonus. While the bonus is the lowest of the four weeks, it’s still an excellent opportunity to participate in staking and contribute to the network’s security. As with the previous weeks, your tokens and bonuses will be available to secure the network and start earning block rewards immediately, even as they vest.
Why Participate in Staking?
Staking is more than just earning rewards — it’s about playing an active role in the growth and security of the Voi network. By locking up your tokens, you help secure the blockchain, support decentralized governance, and contribute to the overall health of the ecosystem.
In return, you’re rewarded with staking bonuses that reflect your commitment to the network. Additionally, the ability to use your staked tokens and bonus tokens to earn block rewards from day one provides a significant incentive to participate early.

We encourage all Voiagers to take advantage of the staking program as soon as it becomes available. Whether you’re a seasoned staker or new to the concept, this is your chance to be part of something bigger — to help build and secure the Voi network while earning rewards for your participation.
