# Staking Milestones

Bringing utility through staking

### Staking milestones

These staking milestones are designed in an easy-to-attain to hard-to-attain way. 

{% hint style="success" %}
Staking milestones are cumulative, meaning that if you attain a higher one, you still benefit from the other ones on the way.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
The Lara Protocol tracks staking in real-time, meaning that if you increase your staked `LARA` tokens and hit additional milestones, they will instantly contribute to your commission discounts.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
The same is true the other way around. If you unstake your `LARA` tokens, your commission discounts are revoked in real-time.
{% endhint %}

#### Milestone 1: 1M LARA staked

Every Lara Protocol user who has 1M `LARA` staked is getting an additional 1% commission discount.

#### Milestone 2: 2.5M LARA staked

Every Lara Protocol user who has 2.5M `LARA` staked is getting an additional 1% commission discount.

#### Milestone 3: 5M LARA staked

Every Lara Protocol user who has 5M `LARA` staked is getting an additional 1% commission discount.

#### Milestone 4: 10M LARA staked

Every Lara Protocol user who has 10M `LARA` staked is getting an additional 1% commission discount.

#### Milestone 5: 25M LARA staked

Every Lara Protocol user who has 25M `LARA` staked is getting an additional 1% commission discount.

#### :soon: Milestone 6: 50M LARA staked - coming soon 

Every Lara Protocol user who has 25M `LARA` staked is getting an additional 1% commission discount. In addition, they can create validator oracles and take a % of the total yield generated by users. This is a draft and will be voted on by the community.

{% hint style="info" %}
Example: Adam has 10M TARA staked in the Lara Protocol, 1M LARA in his wallet and 6.3M LARA staked. This would mean that:

*  instead of the 10% base commission, Adam's commission is 7%.
* Adam's voting power equals 7.3M LARA: the sum he staked + the LARA in his wallet.
* Adam makes 13% yield on his 6.3M LARA staked. This nets him an additional `820 000 LARA`tokens on a yearly basis.
