Frequently Asked Questions(FAQs)

  1. What is veTMAI?

    veTMAI (vote-escrowed TMAI) is a token you receive when you stake TMAI. It determines your staking score and influences the benefits you get.

  2. How is veTMAI calculated?
    veTMAI is calculated based on the amount of TMAI you stake and the lock duration. For example, staking for 12 months provides a 2.0x multiplier compared to shorter durations.

  3. What is a staking score?
    Your staking score measures your staking commitment. It depends on the amount of veTMAI you hold, which is determined by how much TMAI you stake and the duration of your lock period. A higher staking score unlocks greater benefits.

  4. Why should I stake my TMAI?
    Staking TMAI lets you earn veTMAI and access exclusive rewards like discounts on Token Metrics services, early access to private sales, referral bonuses, governance rights, and more. The longer you stake, the more benefits you receive.

  5. Are there financial rewards or earnings from staking TMAI?
    No, there are no financial rewards, yield, or earnings for staking TMAI. However, platform benefits include discounts, governance rights, and access to exclusive events.

  6. Can I unstake my TMAI before the lock period ends?
    No, TMAI cannot be unstaked before the lock period ends.

  7. How are discounts applied?

    Discounts are tiered based on your staking score. When paying for Token Metrics services using TMAI, your Web 3 wallet connection automatically applies eligible discounts.

  8. Is TMAI staking secure?

    Yes, the platform utilizes audited smart contracts to ensure the security and integrity of staking transactions.

  9. What happens if I don’t claim my veTMAI?

    veTMAI is automatically sent to your wallet upon successful staking. There is no need for manual claiming.

  10. Can I transfer veTMAI to another wallet?

    No, veTMAI is non-transferable and is tied to the wallet used for staking.

  11. Where can I buy TMAI?

    You can purchase TMAI directly through the trading widget embedded on the TMAI staking page.

  12. If the value of TMAI goes up and I am staking TMAI, will I have more TMAI?
    Staking TMAI does not increase the number of tokens you hold unless staking rewards are involved. The value of your TMAI will change based on market conditions, whether you stake it or not.

    When you stake TMAI, it is locked for a period of time, and you receive veTMAI in return. veTMAI offers additional benefits such as discounts, access to private launchpads, and other exclusive features. However, when you convert veTMAI back to TMAI, the value will be the same as if you had simply held your TMAI without staking.

  13. What happens when I un-stake veTMAI?
    When you un-stake your veTMAI, you will receive the amount of TMAI you staked initially. For example, if you staked 10,000 TMAI to receive 13,333 veTMAI, you will receive 10,000 TMAI when you un-stake 13,333 veTMAI.
