Introducing XDP Staking & DP Season 3
A New Utility for XDP
Doppler is introducing XDP Staking, a new utility that allows XDP holders to stake their tokens and earn Doppler Points (DP) during Season 3.
Through XDP Staking, holders can commit their XDP to an on-chain staking contract and accumulate DP with a 20× boost compared to the standard Season 3 earning rate.
XDP Staking is designed to encourage long-term participation while expanding the role of XDP within the Doppler ecosystem.
Users can stake or request to unstake their XDP at any time, with a seven-day withdrawal waiting period applying to unstaking requests.
Aligning XDP Holders With Ecosystem Growth
As the Doppler ecosystem continues to grow, the role of XDP is expanding beyond token ownership.
XDP Staking introduces a new way for holders to participate in the ecosystem by committing their tokens to an on-chain staking contract and accumulating Doppler Points.
Rather than distributing XDP token rewards through a fixed reward pool, the program integrates staking with Doppler Points Season 3, where eligible XDP staking positions receive a 20× DP Boost.
This approach is designed to encourage long-term participation while strengthening the connection between XDP holders and the broader Doppler ecosystem.
Introducing Doppler Points Season 3
Alongside XDP Staking, Doppler is launching Doppler Points Season 3, the next phase of its ecosystem participation program.
Building on Seasons 1 and 2, Season 3 continues to recognize users who participate in the Doppler ecosystem through eligible vault deposits, while introducing XDP Staking as a new way to accumulate points.
How DP Season 3 Works
During Season 3, users earn Doppler Points based on the USD value of their eligible deposits and actively staked XDP.
The base earning rate is:
0.01 DP per $1 of eligible USD value per hour.
This rate applies to eligible Doppler vault deposits and XDP staking positions, with an additional multiplier for XDP Staking.
- Vault Deposits: 0.01 DP per $1 deposited per hour.
- XDP Staking: 0.2 DP per $1 staked per hour, reflecting the 20× DP Boost.
The 20× boost applies exclusively to eligible XDP staking positions, allowing XDP holders to accumulate DP at an enhanced rate during Season 3.
How XDP Staking Works
XDP Staking follows a straightforward Stake, Earn DP, and Unstake structure.
1. Stake XDP
Users can stake XDP directly through XDP Staking Portal.
Once the staking transaction is confirmed on-chain, the deposited XDP becomes part of the user's active staking position and qualifies for DP Season 3 accrual.
2. Earn DP with a 20× Boost
While XDP remains actively staked, users accumulate DP based on the USD value of their staking position.
During Season 3, a 20× multiplier is applied to eligible XDP staking activity.
Unlike conventional token staking programs that distribute a fixed pool of token rewards, XDP Staking rewards participation through Doppler Points.
3. Unstake XDP
Users may request to unstake all or part of their XDP position at any time.
Once an unstaking request is confirmed on-chain, the requested amount is immediately removed from the active staking position and stops earning DP.
All unstaking requests are subject to a seven-day withdrawal waiting period.
After this period ends, users can withdraw their XDP to their wallets.
Any remaining active stake continues to accumulate DP with the 20× boost during Season 3.
A Foundation for Broader XDP Utility
XDP Staking represents a step toward expanding the role of XDP within the Doppler ecosystem. By connecting active staking positions with Doppler Points Season 3, it gives holders a new way to participate beyond holding the token.
Looking ahead, Doppler aims to explore additional utility for actively staked XDP, potentially including new ecosystem features, benefits, and campaigns. Any such initiatives, along with their eligibility requirements, will be announced separately.
