How to bet with BRC20-S at OKX

Earn on your BRC-20 tokens

OKX Web3 Wallet now supports BRC-20 staking. That means you can now stake BRC-20 tokens and earn yield right from the OKX Wallet! When you stake BRC-20 tokens:

  • Your BRC-20 tokens don't need to be locked up or transferred to a third-party platform. They can just sit in your wallet.

  • The BRC-20 assets you have staked can be transferred normally without a cumbersome redemption process to unlock your tokens. However, we don't recommend withdrawing your tokens, since this will reduce your yield from staking.

  • If you transfer funds, we'll preferentially take them from the most recent pool you invested in. We'll then update your staking rewards based on the order in which you staked tokens. Accumulated gains will not be deducted.

  • A single token can only be staked into one pool. A user must redeem it from the initial pool to then stake in other pools.

Good to know

  • BRC20-S is an innovative token standard built upon BRC-20. All BRC20-S pools are decentralized and open to the community. Users should do their own research and identify risks themselves before choosing one pool or another.

  • The APY data is an estimate of the annual return you could earn on your investment. It's calculated based on the token price, which is determined by users trading in the OKX Ordinals market. We filter out unreliable prices, but there are still cases where the APY is unrealistically high due to fake trading. APY data is for reference only and may not always be accurate.
