# Staking Boost & Allocation

## Staking Boost & Allocation

Buzz rewards are split evenly: 50% to stakers and 50% to buzzers. Staking CGPT provides eligibility for the staker reward pool and increases your Buzz Points, which influence allocation within campaigns.

### How the boost works

Your points multiplier depends on your **Staking Points (SP)**. In-app, you’ll see a formula similar to:

```
Boost ≈ SP × 0.00001
```

The boost is capped (up to **5×**). Staking Points grow with both **how much** and **how long** you stake. Longer commitments earn more SP per token.

#### Tier examples (illustrative)

* Bronze: \~1.02×
* Silver: \~1.2×
* Gold: \~1.5×
* Diamond: \~2×
* Higher tiers: up to the cap of 5×

The actual tiers and multipliers are defined on the campaign page.

### Allocation formulas

* **Staker allocation:**  `(Your SP ÷ Total SP) × Staker Pool`
* **Buzzer allocation:** `(Your BP ÷ Total BP) × Buzzer Pool`

You can participate in both pools: stake $CGPT to secure a guaranteed share *and* buzz to compete for the buzzer pool.

### Example

You stake enough to earn **250,000 SP** (≈2.5× boost) and accumulate **10,000 Buzz Points** from your posts. You’ll receive allocation from both the staker pool (weighted by SP) and the buzzer pool (weighted by BP). Stakers with a tier earn allocation even without buzzing; buzzing on top of staking increases your share.

### Why stake?

* **Increased allocation:** stake to claim a portion of the staker pool.
* **Higher points multiplier:** climb the leaderboard faster.
* **Rewards:** stakes accumulate rewards across campaigns.
