Eligible recipients of the $A8 token airdrop have the option to "claim and stake" directly through the Airdrop Portal, as shown in the image below. This option will automatically stake 100% of your airdrop allocation without lock-up, granting users an exclusive multiplier of 400% for their $A8 staking points, but only if completed at https://airdrop.ancient8.gg/ before August 17, 2024, at 9:00 AM (GMT).
With "Claim and Stake," your $A8 tokens will not be locked, and you'll continue to earn the 400% staking point multiplier until you decide to withdraw them from the Staking Portal.
Eligible airdrop users only have 1 chance to earn the 400% staking point multiplier via the "Claim and Stake" directly on the Airdrop Portal. If users already claimed manually, that user will miss the 400% and follow the normal staking multipliers.
Example:
User A is eligible for 10 A8 tokens and decided to "Claim & Stake" directly via the Airdrop Portal, user A will:
able to unstake anytime
earn 400% staking point multiplier until the moment user A unstakes
User B is eligible for 10 A8 tokens and decided to "Claim Without Multiplier" via the Airdrop Portal, user B will:
not able to earn 400% staking point multiplier
able to go to https://staking.ancient8.gg/ to stake manually but will receive the maximum staking point multiplier of 180% (for the option of locking 180 days)
follow the locking and multipliers of normal staking
For comprehensive instruction on how to "Claim & Stake" or "Claim Without Multiplier" at https://airdrop.ancient8.gg/, please refer to this document.
You can still claim your $A8 tokens and participate in staking via https://staking.ancient8.gg/. However, when you stake later, your rewards will be based on the standard multiplier, not the higher multiplier offered for “claim and stake” via Airdrop Portal.
More information on regular staking point multipliers will be provided in the Staking section.
$A8 tokens are initially on Ethereum Layer 1. You'll need some ETH to cover transaction fees.
Unclaimed tokens after the claiming period ends will be returned to the Ancient8 Foundation Treasury.
We'll ensure fair distribution through checks for duplicate accounts (sybil investigation).
Official Staking Portal: https://staking.ancient8.gg/
You can choose to stake your $A8 tokens with no lock-up period or for a set period to enjoy higher A8 staking point multiplier.
No lock-up: This option offers flexibility, allowing you to withdraw your tokens at any time.
Lock-up periods: Choose from lock-up periods of 30 days, 60 days, or 180 days. The longer you commit your tokens, the greater the multiplier you'll receive on your A8 staking points.
Your tokens will be inaccessible for the entire lock-up period. You won't be able to withdraw them or trade them until the period ends.
Once the lock-up period ends, the multiplier will revert to the standard rate offered for non-locked staking. To continue earning the higher multiplier, you'll need to restake your tokens for another lock-up period.
By earning A8 staking points, you gain access to exclusive benefits within the Ancient8 ecosystem:
Premium access: Get exclusive advantages within Ancient8 protocols, games, and partner offerings.
Token & NFT Launchpools: Participate in special token and NFT launches within the Ancient8 ecosystem and by its partners.
And many more!

Earn A8 staking points: The more $A8 tokens you stake, the more A8 points you'll earn.
