VeChain, a layer 1 blockchain for enterprise decentralized applications, has officially unveiled its new staking platform StarGate, with up to $15 million in bonus rewards.<\/p>\n

StarGate goes live<\/a> as the crypto industry lauds the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission\u2019s landmark guidance that clarified protocol staking does not constitute securities offerings.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Notably, VeChain (VET)\u2019s staking initiative aligns with market anticipation around the launch of the first staking exchange-traded fund in the U.S., all amid overall expectations that the SEC will give a nod to multiple crypto ETFs before the end of 2025. <\/p>\n

SEC had initially pushed back on exchang-traded funds with staking.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe SEC\u2019s recent guidance validates what we\u2019ve been building toward: a fully compliant, accessible staking model that treats rewards as compensation for network services rather than investment returns,\u201d said Sunny Lu, chief executive officer and founder of VeChain. \u201cOur innovative approach of leveraging NFTs to represent participation ensures both simplicity for users and full regulatory alignment.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

<\/p>\n

VeChain offers $15 million in bonus rewards<\/h2>\n

As announced on July 1, network participants in VeChain\u2019s staking ecosystem are set for a chance to win huge bonus rewards.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In particular, the project has outlined a bonus reward campaign that will offer up 5.48 billion VTHO tokens worth about $15 million over the next six months. These bonus earnings are a major incentive for stakers as VeChain looks to bolster its platform with native staking that taps into non-fungible token technology<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cAs regulatory clarity emerges globally, we\u2019re positioned to lead the next wave of compliant, accessible blockchain participation,\u201d Lu added. \u201cThe generous rewards pool ensures early adopters benefit while contributing to network decentralization.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

To benefit from the staking offer, users have to withdraw their VET from exchanges to their self-custody wallets, including VeWorld, VeChain\u2019s official wallet. Only staked VET in self-custody wallets will be eligible for the staking NFT required to activate the rewards.<\/p>\n
