Staking Mechanics

To ensure network reliability and deter malicious behavior, provers and validators are required to stake $PVM.

• Collateral: Staked $PVM acts as collateral.

• Lockup Period: Staked $PVM will have a base lockup period, which can be extended to participate in enhanced reward distribution.

• Governance Participation: Staking $PVM grants voting rights in the Proverium DAO, allowing token holders to shape the future of the protocol. The longer the lockup period chosen by a staker, the greater their voting power and potential rewards, aligning long-term commitment with influence.
