Tiered Staking: Scaled Fee Reductions

Tiered Staking accounts for your historical trading volume  -  letting you unlock better fee tiers faster and for longer.

The more EDGE you stake, the longer your historical volume lookback window.

Staked EDGE Amount

Lookback Window

2,000 $EDGE

30 days

20,000 $EDGE

60 days

200,000 $EDGE

90 days

2,000,000 $EDGE

120 days

10,000,000 $EDGE

180 days

For example, if you traded $500K per month for the past 2 months on Definitive,

  • Staking 20K EDGE would immediately move you from Tier 4 to Tier 3 by extending the volume lookback window to 60 days.

  • On every $100K trade, you’d save $100 on trading fees by staking 20K EDGE — moving you from the Tier 4 Standard to Tier 3 Staked Fee Tier. This saves you 40–50% in trading fees on every trade.

How to Stake $EDGE

  1. Navigate to “Staking” in the top navigation

  1. On the Staking page, connect your Base wallet, input the amount you'd like to stake, then click “Stake EDGE” and follow your wallet prompts on-screen. Staking at least 2,000 $EDGE unlocks reduced trading fees.

How to Unstake $EDGE

  1. To unstake your $EDGE, navigate to the “Staking” tab in the top navigation, connect your wallet, and click “Unstake.”

  1. Enter the amount of $EDGE you would like to Unstake.

  1. There is a 7-day cooldown period that is triggered when you Unstake $EDGE. You won’t be able to trade or withdraw $EDGE during the cooldown period.

  • If you Unstake additional $EDGE during the 7-day cooldown, it will reset a new 7-day cooldown period to begin on the full amount of $EDGE being unstaked.

  • Example: You unstake 100 $EDGE on Monday. This triggers the 7-day cooldown period (begins Monday). Then, you unstake an additional 200 $EDGE the next day on Tuesday. This will reset the 7-day cooldown period (begins Tuesday) for the entire amount of 300 $EDGE.

  1. After the 7-day cooldown period has ended, navigate to the Staking tab in the top navigation. Connect your Base wallet.

  2. Then, click “Claim Now” on the right to withdraw the unstaked $EDGE to your wallet.

  3. You will be prompted to sign the transaction in your wallet. You’ll see a success message when you’ve successfully claimed your unstaked $EDGE into your wallet.
