# Staking Rewards

For DAO members to participate and commit to specific projects, they will be required to stake 100 $MYO into a project-specific staking pool, operated by Myosin DAO. As $MYO gains liquidity in the broader crypto ecosystem, we will lower the minimums on staking based on community votes.

Upon verified completion of a project, a member's $MYO will be unstaked. In the case of an incomplete or canceled project due to client actions, Team members' staked $MYO will also be unstaked and returned.&#x20;

Only in the case of individual Team members behaving as bad actors and deliberately sabotaging, neglecting, or abandoning their Project without any reasonable explanations will we not return staked $MYO.

To prioritize participation, align interests to complete projects and incentivize active participation by DAO members, we will activate a project-specific staking reward (APY), through a community discussion and proposal, to set the best interest rate.&#x20;

At the present moment, staking rewards are inactive, but we look forward to activating staking rewards soon.
