Booster System

Operator & jurisdiction: BASIS is operated by BASIS DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE LTD, a Seychelles-incorporated entity (LEI: 254900IX2F2KCWNSSS64).

Currency convention: dashboard values may be displayed using USDT as an internal accounting reference for USD-equivalent reporting. USDT is not a depositable or withdrawable asset on BASIS. Supported native token flows are BTC, ETH, SOL, and PAXG.

Boosters on BASIS are not presented as a marketing device. They are part of the platform’s staking economics policy and are tied to lock-up commitments.

1) Definition: booster as yield-share adjustment

A booster is a multiplier applied to the yield accrued by a staked position. BASIS links that multiplier to the capital quality contributed by the user, primarily through lock-up duration.

A simplified decomposition:

• Gross Yield = realized strategy returns

• Costs = fees + slippage + hedging cost + operational overhead

• Net Yield = Gross Yield − Costs

A boosted distribution changes how net yield is allocated between:

• users

• the operator

Boosters are intended to reflect actual capital-efficiency gains. They are not designed to depend on hidden fees or undisclosed risk transfers.

2) Active booster schedule

BASIS applies fixed time-based boosters. The interface displays the booster as a percentage addition to the base staking rate.

Lock-up	UI display	Multiplier	Meaning
Flexible	+0%	1.0x	Base rate, no adjustment
14 days	+10%	1.1x	Yield increased by 10% of base
30 days	+20%	1.2x	Yield increased by 20% of base
90 days	+50%	1.5x	Yield increased by 50% of base
180 days	+100%	2.0x	Yield doubled

Active booster schedule:

• 14D: +10%

• 30D: +20%

• 90D: +50%

• 180D: +100% (2×)

Interpretation:

• boosters are multipliers applied to calculated yield

• boosters do not guarantee returns

• realized yield depends on strategy performance, market conditions, and execution precision

3) Why longer lock-ups can receive higher multipliers

Longer lock-ups can support better capital deployment because they:

• allow higher continuity of allocation

• reduce forced repositioning from withdrawal activity

• enable longer-horizon strategy participation

• improve planning around deterministic execution and state-machine-based risk controls

This is why longer lock-ups may receive larger efficiency-based yield adjustments.

4) How boosters work operationally

1

Stake stToken from the Staking Wallet

Users stake stBTC, stETH, stSOL, or stPAXG from the Staking Wallet. Rewards accumulate in real time in the same stToken.

2

Select the lock-up period

Available options include Flexible, 14D, 30D, 90D, and 180D.

3

Booster is applied to the position

The selected booster modifies the yield calculation for that staked position.

4

Unstake at maturity for fixed pools

Fixed pools can only be unstaked after the lock-up period ends. Early exit is not available.

5

Receive the unstaked amount

Upon unstake, the full position is processed on an auto-MAX basis. The claimable amount is automatically credited to the Staking Wallet as the same stToken.

5) Important constraints

Position scope

Boosters apply to the staked position associated with the selected lock-up configuration.

6) Booster disclosures required

A credible booster framework should clearly disclose:

• whether the booster applies only to yield accrual or also affects other calculations

• whether the booster applies prospectively from the moment of staking

• how boosted yield is displayed in the interface

• how lock-up constraints affect unstake timing

• how the system behaves under risk-control states and execution safeguards

7) Related platform context

BASIS is built around deterministic execution, mathematical constraints, and state machine risk controls. The underlying BHLE infrastructure is designed for sub-50μs latency, 100K+ OPS throughput, and proprietary routing to support structural alpha capture with controlled execution behavior.

Wallet model reminder:

• Funding Wallet: native tokens only for deposit and withdrawal

• Staking Wallet: stTokens only for staking and reward accrual

Supported swap pairs are same-token only at 1:1:

• BTC → stBTC

• ETH → stETH

• SOL → stSOL

• PAXG → stPAXG
