Native Stacking with BTC Yield Basics

Last updated
Stacking DAO makes it easy to delegate STX and earn BTC rewards with zero fees while STX are locked during the two-week Stacking cycles.
The native stacking pool has no fees, no smart contract risk, and a low minimum deposit amount.
The yield source for the native stacking pool (as well as for stSTX and stSTXbtc) relies on Stacks' consensus mechanism, Proof of Transfer (PoX), where Bitcoin miners bid BTC to win Stacks blocks and earn newly minted STX and transaction fees.
The BTC committed by miners is then distributed to STX stackers (who lock their tokens for 2-week cycles) as a reward for their participation in securing the network.
Key features:
Zero Fees
BTC rewards: Airdropped every two-week cycle, with the flexibility to choose your preferred Bitcoin address for payouts
Easy migration: Stacking DAO simplifies switching from other pools by showing where your STX are currently delegated and when you can revoke them
Real-time monitoring: Track your cycle status, upcoming reward distribution, and BTC rewards generated so far
