# Staking formula

### Intro

The main goal of NEARton staking is rewarding NEARton NFT holders using utility token $NEXP.

Since a typical NFT holder owns NFTs from different collections, we're allowing to stake not only NEARton NFTs. It helps to connect strong projects together and reward early NEAR NFTs adopters.

### Key principles

NEARton NFTs are **stakable**.

To stake partners' collections with NEARton, **you need to own and stake at least one NEARton house.**

Each house has its own base staking rate (bSR), calculated based on **rarity** + **multiplier for Central District (4.4).**

Be aware that bSR is specified in points, not in $NEXP. Points to $NEXP ratio will be published later.

All rewards are split into **two pools**:\
&#x20;\- Rewards for NEARton NFTs **(50%)**\
&#x20;\- Rewards for all partners NFTs **(50%)**\
Partners NFTs have **a flat SR** calculated based on **market cap.**

Each house has a base capacity: **5 partners NFTs per house.**

You can find staking rate and capacity on the house page ([example](https://nearton.org/house/1)), info icon near the owner.&#x20;

As NEARton is a DeFi strategy game, we've decided to make it interesting. You will be able to  **improve** the staking rate and capacity by upgrading the **level** of your house using $NEXP (and combining a few NEARton houses - details coming soon).

*Levels grid will be introduced after the staking launch.*<br>
