Announcement: Dual Staking Tier Update

As part of the Fusion Upgrade, Core’s Dual Staking tiers went into effect, allowing stakers of CORE tokens to access higher tiers of Bitcoin staking yield. The various tier requirements began as:

• Satoshi Tier (Highest Rate) – 8,000:1
• Super Tier – 3,000:1
• Boost Tier – 1,000:1

These tiers were always designed to be adjusted on an ongoing basis in order to continually foster alignment between the Core and Bitcoin communities.

Following a three-day governance vote by the community, the tier requirements have been updated to:

• Satoshi Tier (Highest Rate) – 16,000:1
• Super Tier – 6,000:1
• Boost Tier – 2,000:1

This adjustment doubles the CORE staking requirement for each tier, increasing the incentive for Bitcoin stakers to stake more CORE. As a result, CORE tokens play an even greater role in the Bitcoin staking process, reinforcing long-term Bitcoin-Core alignment.

Going forward, these tiers will continue to be adjusted through governance voting, so that Bitcoin stakers are maximally committed to the Core ecosystem while being sustainably rewarded for their contributions.
