  1. Deposit Fee: 0%
  2. Withdraw Fee: 0%
  3. Transaction Fee: Minimal in ATOM & XPRT
  4. Instant Redemption Fee: 0.5%
  5. Protocol Fee: 5%Ā 

pSTAKE is in the works of deploying our new and improved ATOM liquid staking solution, which will allow users to earn on-chain staking rewards on Cosmos Hub while participating in Cosmos DeFi.

The Cosmos ecosystem and its underlying infrastructure lend themselves well to an extremely smooth and enhanced user experience, including lightning-fast transaction speeds and low fees. With our stkATOM product now built using Cosmos technology, the entire fee structure and model changes significantly from the existing Ethereum model, benefitting users across the board.

Let’s take a look at the different fees associated with our stkATOM product.Ā 

Fee Types

As we dive in, it’s important to remember that these fee parameters can be changed at any time through PSTAKE governance as deemed fit.

Deposit Fee

This fee is charged by the pSTAKE protocol when users deposit their ATOM with pSTAKE to liquid stake and mint stkATOM – at launch, this will be set to 0%. We believe that having a non-zero deposit fee will disincentivise users to liquid-stake their ATOM on our protocol.

Withdraw Fee

This fee is charged by the pSTAKE protocol when a user claims their unstaked ATOM after the 21-25 day unbonding period – at launch, this will also be set to 0%. Our priority will be to bootstrap very deep liquidity for stkATOM on DEXs (decentralised exchanges) in the Cosmos Ecosystem following launch.Ā 

We believe it’s not ideal to charge a fee for simply withdrawing ATOM by unstaking stkATOM.

Transaction Fee

šŸ’„Transaction fees may be charged for staking ATOM & unstaking stkATOM, which will be paid in XPRT. With Persistence set to be the liquid staking hub of the Cosmos ecosystemšŸ’„, dApps (decentralised applications) being built on top of the network will need a common transacting asset for a smoother user experience, šŸ’„adding greater use cases and value for XPRT.šŸ’„

Instant Redemption Fee

This fee accelerates the timeline for users who want to redeem their tokens instantly – at launch, this will be set to 0.5%. pSTAKE is creating an innovative mechanism that will allow users to instantly redeem their ATOM for stkATOM without waiting for the 21-25 day unstaking period to end.Ā 

If enough redeemable tokens are available within the daily deposit pool, users will be able to claim their underlying ATOM (and associated staking rewards) equivalent to the current exchange rate. They will also avoid risks associated with volatile price swings during this unbonding period.

Protocol Fee

Staking rewards are automatically compounded when ATOM is liquid staked through the pSTAKE protocol. Validators take their share of profit from accumulated rewards, similarly to traditional staking before rewards are distributed to users.Ā 

These rewards are split into two parts:

  • 95% for stkATOM holders:Ā Rewards are generated through stkATOM’s appreciation over time through staking and auto-compounding with the increase in value of stkATOM relative to ATOM.
  • 5% for the pSTAKE protocol:Ā This 5% fee is charged on generated auto-compounding rewards (not on any other steps, such as staking, unstaking, or claiming). An on-chain proposal manages the protocol fees, which are targeted toward development activities (i.e. hackathons, grants, bug bounties, protocol revenue) to support the long-term growth of the pSTAKE ecosystem.

Protocol Fee Breakdown

To make our stkATOM product a sustainable and viable solution in the long run (along with future stkASSET implementations), it’s crucial to increase the protocol’s revenue. However, revenue-generating opportunities are limited for a liquid staking protocol.

Because pSTAKE will match on-chain rewards and auto-compound them on an epoch basis, users can expect to earn an average staking APY of up to ~19% (after a 5% protocol fee). Users will still earn higher rewards than those provided through traditional staking by simply holding stkATOM. Based on these metrics, a 5% fee would help the pSTAKE protocol sustain in the long run without creating a dent in our users’ yields & also give pSTAKE a competitive edge (this fee model has the potential to be changed down the line via pSTAKE governance).

Furthermore, our main priority is to incentivise users, and we’re doing so by charging minimal fees (some of the lowest in the industry), encouraging more activity on the whole.

Fueling Adoption & Utility

pSTAKE will incentivise stkATOM adoption by integrating with various dApps and protocols across the Cosmos ecosystem. As we look to expand our stkASSET portfolio, this will become the go-to standard for our liquid-staked assets in the future.Ā 

Utility and adoption are the cornerstones of any ecosystem, and pSTAKE is looking to breathe new life into the Cosmos ecosystem with our stkATOM solution.

About pSTAKE

pSTAKEĀ is a liquid staking protocol that unlocks liquidity for your staked assets. With pSTAKE, you can securely stake your Proof-of-Stake (PoS) assets, participate in protocol improvements and security to earn staking rewards, and receive staked underlying representative tokens (stkASSETs) which can be used to explore additional yield opportunities across DeFi.

At present, pSTAKE supports Binance Chain (BNB), Cosmos (ATOM), Persistence (XPRT), and Ethereum (ETH) networks’ native tokens, with a view to support more chains and assets in the future (SOL, and AVAX).

New Human Force
Join this Now! YOU have what it takes!

They are in our solar system, and in our event-stream in this Eternal Now.

Officialdom is clueless.

They think we are going to be at WAR with the Aliens.

Officialdom is very stupid.

Aliens is here. It’s not WAR. It’s Contention.

There is a difference.

Officialdom is clueless, still living in the last Millennium.

Aliens is here.

The Field in which we contend is This Eternal Now.

ALL HUMANS LIVE HERE, and ONLY HERE, in this

ETERNAL NOW.

It’s a Field of potentials, of pending Manifestation, this continuous event-stream of karma in which we have always lived our body’s Life.

This Eternal Now has always been our body’s Field of Contention.

The Aliens is here, in our Eternal Now.

Our common, shared, reality that we all continuously co-create now has Aliens.

It’s getting very complex in here.

Officialdom is clueless. They see the Aliens. They are freaking out. They think you are children, when it is their small minds, trapped in a reality that is only grit, mud, and ā€˜random chance’ who are childish.

Officialdom is stupid. They will and are reacting badly. As is their way, they are trying to hide shit from you. Silly grit bound minds don’t realize you can see everything from within the Eternal Now. They have yet to grasp that what they perceive as this Matterium, filled with ā€˜matter’, is but a hardening of our previous (past) internal states of being.

WAR happens in the Matterium.

Contention occurs within this Eternal Now where Consciousness shapes the manifesting event-stream.

YOU know this to be fact. You are a co-creator.

Contention with Aliens is happening in this instant in this Eternal Now.

Officialdom ain’t doing shit. They are still stuck in trying to move matter around to affect unfolding circumstances. That’s redoing the mirror trying to affect the reflection. Dumb fucks….

It’s up to US. To the New Humans. Those of us who live in this Eternal Now. Those of us who see that our body’s Lives (the Chain that cannot be broken) are expressions of the Ontology revealing itself to itself. It’s up to us guys.

We are not an Army. That’s a concept from the past, from before the emergence of the New Humans. We are a Force. A self-organizing collective with leadership resident in each, and every participant.

We are the New Human Force. By the time officialdom starts to speak about the Aliens in near-factual terms, we will already be engaging them in this Eternal Now.

By the time officialdom begins to move matter around (space ships & such) thinking it’s War, we will already be suffering casualties in this Eternal Now. That part is inevitable. It’s how we learn.

By the time officialdom realizes that some shit is going on in places and ways beyond its conception, we will already be pushing our dominance onto our partners in this First Contention, the Aliens. Nage cannot train without Uke.

Just as officialdom is scrambling to research the Ontology, this Eternal Now, and the event-stream, we will be settling terms with our new partners, the Aliens.

Come, join with us. It’s going to be a hellacious Contention.

We ARE the NEW HUMANS!

Together we are the Force that cannot be defeated.

Start YOUR training in this instance of this Eternal NOW.

Consume Neville Goddard videos as though all of human existence depended on YOUR mind and YOUR active, effective, imaginings!

It’s not a question of Mind over Matter as there is only Mind and it cares not for Matter. That’s residue.

The Great Onboarding: US Government Anchors Global Economy into Web3 via Pyth Network

For years, the crypto world speculated that the next major cycle would be driven by institutional adoption, with Wall Street finally legitimizing Bitcoin through vehicles like ETFs. While that prediction has indeed materialized, a recent development signifies a far more profound integration of Web3 into the global economic fabric, moving beyond mere financial products to the very infrastructure of data itself. The U.S. government has taken a monumental step, cementing Web3's role as a foundational layer for modern data distribution. This door, once opened, is poised to remain so indefinitely.

The U.S. Department of Commerce has officially partnered with leading blockchain oracle providers, Pyth Network and Chainlink, to distribute critical official economic data directly on-chain. This initiative marks a historic shift, bringing immutable, transparent, and auditable data from the federal government itself onto decentralized networks. This is not just a technological upgrade; it's a strategic move to enhance data accuracy, transparency, and accessibility for a global audience.

Specifically, Pyth Network has been selected to publish Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data, starting with quarterly releases going back five years, with plans to expand to a broader range of economic datasets. Chainlink, the other key partner, will provide data feeds from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), including Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index. This crucial economic information will be made available across a multitude of blockchain networks, including major ecosystems like Ethereum, Avalanche, Base, Bitcoin, Solana, Tron, Stellar, Arbitrum One, Polygon PoS, and Optimism.

This development is closer to science fiction than traditional finance. The same oracle network, Pyth, that secures data for over 350 decentralized applications (dApps) across more than 50 blockchains, processing over $2.5 trillion in total trading volume through its oracles, is now the system of record for the United States' core economic indicators. Pyth's extensive infrastructure, spanning over 107 blockchains and supporting more than 600 applications, positions it as a trusted source for on-chain data. This is not about speculative assets; it's about leveraging proven, robust technology for critical public services.

The significance of this collaboration cannot be overstated. By bringing official statistics on-chain, the U.S. government is embracing cryptographic verifiability and immutable publication, setting a new precedent for how governments interact with decentralized technology. This initiative aligns with broader transparency goals and is supported by Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, positioning the U.S. as a world leader in finance and blockchain innovation. The decision by a federal entity to trust decentralized oracles with sensitive economic data underscores the growing institutional confidence in these networks.

This is the cycle of the great onboarding. The distinction between "Web2" and "Web3" is rapidly becoming obsolete. When government data, institutional flows, and grassroots builders all operate on the same decentralized rails, we are simply talking about the internet—a new iteration, yes, but the internet nonetheless: an immutable internet where data is not only published but also verified and distributed in real-time.

Pyth Network stands as tangible proof that this technology serves a vital purpose. It demonstrates that the industry has moved beyond abstract "crypto tech" to offering solutions that address real-world needs and are now actively sought after and understood by traditional entities. Most importantly, it proves that Web3 is no longer seeking permission; it has received the highest validation a system can receive—the trust of governments and markets alike.

This is not merely a fleeting trend; it's a crowning moment in global adoption. The U.S. government has just validated what many in the Web3 space have been building towards for years: that Web3 is not a sideshow, but a foundational layer for the future. The current cycle will be remembered as the moment the world definitively crossed this threshold, marking the last great opportunity to truly say, "we were early."

US Dept of Commerce to publish GDP data on blockchain

On Tuesday during a televised White House cabinet meeting, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick announced the intention to publish GDP statistics on blockchains. Today Chainlink and Pyth said they were selected as the decentralized oracles to distribute the data.

Lutnick said, ā€œThe Department of Commerce is going to start issuing its statistics on the blockchain because you are the crypto President. And we are going to put out GDP on the blockchain, so people can use the blockchain for data distribution. And then we’re going to make that available to the entire government. So, all of you can do it. We’re just ironing out all the details.ā€

The data includes Real GDP and the PCE Price Index,Ā which reflects changes in the prices of domestic consumer goods and services. The statistics are released monthly and quarterly. The biggest initial use will likely be by on-chain prediction markets. But as more data comes online, such as broader inflation data or interest rates from the Federal Reserve, it could be used to automate various financial instruments. Apart from using the data in smart contracts, sources of tamperproof data šŸ‘‰will become increasingly important for generative AI.

While it would be possible to procure the data from third parties, it is always ideal to get it from the source to ensure its accuracy. Getting data directly from government sources makes it tamperproof, provided the original data feed has not been manipulated before it reaches the oracle.
