# Staking Overview

To participate in pSTAKE Staking, users must deposit PSTAKE into the staking module.

All staking and unstaking actions are conducted on the Base and can be executed anytime. Before staking, participants will be required to bridge PSTAKE tokens to the Base network. To learn how to bridge to Base, please [follow this guide](https://blog.pstake.finance/2024/05/16/how-to-bridge-pstake-to-base-chain-user-guide/).

NOTE: There is a minimum staking amount of 100 $PSTAKE.
{% endhint %}

Rewards are distributed across consecutive two-week season epochs.

Immediate reward generation occurs upon staking, but unstaking during a season forfeits a portion of the rewards generated.

Users will not be required to unstake after one season ends and another begins.

It is important to note that each season will have a staking cap, dictating the maximum amount of PSTAKE that can be staked. The Staking Cap will be announced before each season starts, and users will need to be quick to participate in that particular season.<br>
