Staking Overview

Giza Protocol supports two complementary staking mechanisms that serve distinct purposes within the ecosystem: operator staking and community staking.

Operator Staking

Operator Staking focuses on network security and reliable infrastructure. Operators who run the decentralized execution network stake GIZA tokens as collateral, creating strong economic incentives for correct operation while ensuring accountability. This staking directly secures the agent execution infrastructure, with operators earning rewards from protocol fees in exchange for their service and committed capital.

Community Staking

Community Staking centers on governance participation and protocol alignment. By staking GIZA tokens, community members gain governance rights proportional to their stake and staking duration. This mechanism ensures those with long-term commitment to the protocol have meaningful input on its direction, while also reducing circulating supply and strengthening token economics.

Synergies

Both staking mechanisms work together to create a cohesive system where security and governance reinforce each other, with rewards flowing to those who contribute to the protocol's success through either operational support or aligned governance participation.
