# Staking and Duration Locked Parameters for ADX

### <mark style="color:purple;">Staked and</mark> <mark style="color:purple;">**Locked Stake $ADX**</mark>

Holding liquid $ADX does not give you to any platform revenue, additional $ADX rewards, or voting rights. In order to earn $USDC yield, $ADX rewards, and voting rights you must choose to stake your $ADX on [this page](https://app.adrena.xyz/stake). Staking your $ADX for longer durations earns additional ADX rewards and multipliers on economics and control. Longer locks earn more, rewarding more long term aligned holders.

#### Premature Unlocking <a href="#premature-unlocking" id="premature-unlocking"></a>

Duration Locked ADX can be prematurely unlocked by forfeiting part of principal (amount depending on the duration of the remaining lock). This forfeited ADX is automatically burned.

*The penalty is: `duration_passed / total_lock_duration`, then clamped between 5% and 40%.*

#### Unstaking ADX <a href="#unstaking-adx" id="unstaking-adx"></a>

Staked ADX that isn't Duration Locked can be claimed at any time without a waiting period.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://adrena.gitbook.io/adrena/tokenomics/adx/staking-and-duration-locked-parameters-for-adx.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
