1. Overview

The ROVR Network allows users to redeem hardware devices by staking ROVR tokens. This mechanism reduces upfront cost and encourages long-term participation in the ecosystem.

4. Unlock Rules

The staking lock period is 1 year. Unlock conditions:

  • Tokens can be unlocked after 1 year if the device is returned

  • Early returns will incur partial token deductions. For every month the stake is withdrawn early, 1/12 of the staked amount will be deducted

  • If the device is inactive for 1 month, 1/12 of the staked tokens will be deducted

    • Inactivity means no data uploaded during a one month rolling period from the previous upload

5. FAQ

Q1: Can I cancel after staking and get my tokens back?

No. Tokens can only be unlocked after the mandatory 1-year staking period.

Q2: Can I transfer tokens while they are staked?

No. Staked tokens cannot be transferred.

Q3: Do staked tokens generate yield or rewards?

No. Staked tokens do not provide additional yield. But the rewards generated have no lock-up period, and the staker can keep 100% of the mapping rewards.

Q4: Can I stake for multiple devices?

Yes. Each staking action applies to one device only, but you may perform multiple staking operations if you want more devices.

Q5: Can I change my wallet address after staking?

No. Once staking is completed, the wallet address is permanently bound to the device. For fleet users, the fleet owner’s staking wallet must remain the same. Rewards can then be distributed to drivers

Q6: Can I change the wallet connected to my ROVR App after I receive the device?

No. The ROVR App wallet must match the wallet used for staking. If the wallet is changed, the device cannot generate rewards or receive mined tokens.
