Udon Liquid Staking (stCHR)

Direct link to heading What is Udon Liquid Staking?

Answer

Udon introduces Liquid Staking to the Chromia ecosystem — a new way to stake CHR and earn validator rewards while keeping your tokens liquid. When you stake CHR through Udon, you receive stCHR, a token that represents your staked CHR and the rewards it generates.

Instead of locking your CHR in Chromia’s Vault, you stay flexible — your stCHR can be used in DeFi, traded, or supplied in Udon for additional yield.

Answer

stCHR is the Liquid Staking Token (LST) of CHR, created by Udon. It represents your staked CHR on the Chromia mainnet and its accumulated staking rewards. Over time, the value of each stCHR increases relative to CHR as validator rewards are distributed.
