Launch Season 1 of the ZKnomics Staking Pilot Program has been confirmed!
Starting Monday, February 9th, ZK token holders will be able to stake their tokens on the Tally staking pilot interface and receive rewards while strengthening active governance participation.
The ZKnomics Staking Pilot Program has two primary objectives:
- test and validate staking infrastructure in preparation for the decentralized sequencer
- increase delegated ZK + active voting power via the delegate-to-stake mechanism
Season 1 will launch on February 9th and run for 3 months. Up to 10M ZK will distribute throughout Season 1, targeting 400M ZK staked total. The APY will start at 3%, and will be increased up to 10% APY over the course of the season based on participation. Please note that APY is not guaranteed - rates are managed, not fixed.
Participants are required to delegate to a ZKsync Delegate in order to stake ZK. Rewards are conditional to delegation to an active Delegate.

Disclaimer: This is a time-limited pilot program intended for testing purposes. Staking functionality is not an inherent function of the ZK token itself. The rewards distributed during this Pilot are considered incentives for participation in a technical trial. They do not constitute a passive investment, a dividend, or a financial return.
