Founders AMA recap — more ways to stake, earn and use the $BOLT token

Introducing BOLT+ Premium (Q3 2021)

  • BOLT+ Premium gets you access to premium features on BOLT+ such as chromecasting, unlimited streaming with no advertising, program guides for live TV channels, notifications for your favourite programmes, and other early access features. Basic access to BOLT+ will remain free and be ad-supported.
  • The BOLT+ Premium is the base of the BOOST Program (our Staking Program), and the launch of boltx.finance.

The BOOST Program (Q4 2021)

  • The BOOST program is our network effect gateway in connecting BOLT+ and BOLT X using the BOLT token. For the first time ever, we will be the first media ecosystem that effectively rewards our users for being a part of our awareness and marketing engine.
  • Initial Boost Program includes:
    - Referring a friend to download BOLT+ and/or BOLT X
    - Earning tokens (kickbacks) when your friend pays for BOLT+ Premium
    - Writing a review for BOLT+ and BOLT X on Google Play Store and/or Apple App Store
    - Tweeting and sharing about BOLT+ and/or BOLT X

The BOLT Staking Program (end Q3 2021)

  • You will be able to stake your BOLT tokens on BOLT X (iOS/Android) and on boltx.finance, our dedicated exchange.
  • We will be allocating 5% base APR for up to 100M BOLT tokens as the first stage of our staking program. This is to incentivise current holders of the BOLT token and early adopters of the BOLT ecosystem.

Dynamic Staking Yield (Q4 2021)

  • We will allocate 20% of all token proceeds from BOLT+ Premium Subscriptions to be distributed to BOLT token holders who have staked their BOLT tokens on BOLT X (mobile) or boltx.finance. This will be on top of the additional 5% APR which BOLT Global will provide at the base for the BOLT Tokens staking program.
  • The rewards from Dynamic Staking Yield will be distributed weekly in proportion to the share of the staking pool that each staker has.

These highlights are just the beginning! Keep your eyes peeled as we will be rolling out the full tokenomics in the subsequent issues of BOLT Vault and on Medium.
