Ethereum 2.0 one-click staking rules
1. Staking ratio: Stake ETH to obtain BETH at the ratio of 1 ETH to 1 BETH.
2. Yield calculation: Yield will be calculated based on the number of staked tokens on-chain and lock up times, and will be issued in BETH. It is estimated that the annualized rate of return is between 6% and 20%. However, this is just an estimation and the final yield is subject to change.
3. Yield distribution: Yield will be distributed every day at 3:00 am UTC, based proportionally on a user's staked funds from the previous day.
4. Minimum amount required to stake: 0.1 ETH.
5. BETH price and trading: OKEx will open BETH trading once it has finished an evaluation of the staking system.
6. Staking period: According to the rules of Ethereum 2.0, your staked assets will be locked in and cannot be redeemed until Ethereum 2.0 Phase 1.5, which is estimated to be launched in approximately two years.
7. USDT rewards: Detailed USDT reward-distribution rules will be announced before the activity starts. The activity duration is from Dec. 17 to Dec. 31, 2020. Users are required to complete level 2 of identity verification to receive the reward.
USDT rewards distribution: 100,000 USDT in rewards will be split according to the percentage of ETH staked by a single user compared to the total amount of ETH staked by all users on OKEx. USDT rewards will be paid out to the winners on Jan. 6 (HKT).
