Long-term pledged capital locked by the decay rule
The mechanism of a 3% daily decay in voting rights after unblocking creates staking stickiness: Data from 2025 shows that the average staking period for addresses holding more than 1% of coins has extended from 102 days to 263 days, as early unblocking results in a 67% loss of accumulated weight over 180 days. This rule improves the stability of staking across the network by 44%, extending the average review period for governance proposals to 57 days and reducing impulsive decision-making by 29%.
