# TOKEN STAKING & REWARDS

### DIAMOND VAULT 

* Stake Diamonds in the DIAMOND VAULT for ETH and BLAZE token rewards.
* 12% of all the ETH and 12% of all the BLAZE that comes in from the DIAMOND mining are sent to the DIAMOND VAULT for staking rewards.
* **Payout Pools**: 60% of the rewards are paid on day 88 and 40% of the rewards are paid on day 288 and will be on repeating cycles.
* **Duration**: Minimum stake term is 2**88** days, and maximum stake term is **888** days. 
* Additional stake shares can be increased with a longer stake duration.
* Also, additional stake shares can be further increased via the CRUSH BONUS option, which is a bonus that can be achieved from choosing to crush additional DIAMONDS, on top of the staked amount.
* These CRUSH BONUS DIAMONDS are forfeited and crushed, further reducing supply.
* **Claiming**: No late-claim penalties, claim whenever. 🔥
