Brief summary
Bedrock DAO is launching PoSL (Proof of Stake Liquidity), allowing users to stake BR and earn veBR rewards. There will be no mandatory lockup for veBR holders - after a warm-up period, they can queue up for unstaking. Early participants during the soft launch will share a one-time special veBR reward pool, which will be distributed all at once during the claim period. The longer you stake, the more voting power you accumulate over time.
Key Highlights
High Initial Staking APY: Early adopters benefit from high rewards (up to 400%), making PoSL one of the most attractive staking opportunities at launch.
No mandatory lock-up: Users have the flexibility to queue up for unstaking within 4 weeks instead of being restricted by a fixed lock-up period. Once unstaking begins, BR tokens will be available for withdrawal after a 2-week cool-down period.
Special rewards for early adopters: Users who stake during the soft launch will share in a one-time special veBR reward pool.
Increase voting power over time: The earlier you stake, the more veBR you accumulate, increasing your governance influence and maximizing future rewards.

Background: What is PoSL?
PoSL introduces a novel staking mechanism designed to enhance liquidity and governance efficiency. By staking BR, participants can earn veBR, which not only provides rewards but also increases governance rights. Unlike traditional staking models, PoSL adopts a flexible warm-up period instead of a fixed-term lock-up, allowing users to gradually integrate into the system while ensuring stability and fair reward distribution.

What happens next?
After the launch of PoSL, more bribe markets will be introduced, allowing veBR holders to provide incentives to direct rewards to specific pools and further optimize yield strategies. This allows veBR holders to maximize their governance rights and optimize rewards. In addition, new meters will be deployed to expand staking opportunities and ensure a sustainable reward mechanism.
Get ready to stake, earn yield, and expand your influence in the ecosystem! Stay tuned for more updates.
