# Staking

## Staking Mechanism of CirCaCoin (CCC)

Staking is a core feature of the CirCaCoin ecosystem, enabling holders to earn passive rewards while strengthening network stability. Available exclusively on [**Cryptogram.vip**](https://cryptogram.vip), CirCaCoin offers both **flexible** and **fixed-term staking options**—each with variable APR and minimum requirements depending on the selected plan.

Users can choose short-term flexibility for liquidity access or longer-term lock-ins for higher yields. Rewards and principal are automatically distributed based on the chosen staking conditions.
