# Staking

### **TRV Staking Rewards**

\
Holders of staked TRV are eligible for 2 types of rewards:

* AEscrowed TRV (aeTRV)
* Multiplier Points

For more information on aeTRV and Multiplier Points, refer to the respective sections on aeTRV and Multiplier Points.

### **Introducing e**TRV

\
Escrowed BID (aeTRV) serves two purposes:

* Staking for rewards analogous to TRV tokens
* Vesting into actual TRV tokens over a 12-month period

Every staked aeTRV will accumulate rewards in the form of more aeTRV, at the same rate as a standard TRV token. aeTRV is designed to be non-transferable, except in the case of complete account transfers.

aeTRV tokens can be transformed into TRV over a vesting period of 12 months. The initiation of vesting will reserve an average amount of TRV that were utilized to garner the aeTRV.
