Fuel L2 Staking is Evolving: Welcome to The Rig

A liquid staking protocol for the Fuel Network, offering enhanced yield and DeFi composability.

Comparison: Native Staking vs The Rig

Native L2 Staking

  • Locked Tokens: Assets are illiquid and cannot be used elsewhere.
  • Manual Compounding: Sequencer rewards must be manually claimed and restaked.
  • No DeFi Access: Staked FUEL is isolated from DeFi protocols.

The Rig LST

  • Liquid stFUEL Token: A DeFi-compatible asset that can be used within the ecosystem to earn additional yield.
  • Auto-Compounding: Higher APY (~31%) from daily, automated sequencer reward restaking.
  • Shared Slashing Risk: Staked FUEL is diversified across multiple operators.

The Rig's Staking Architecture

Mint stFUEL on L2

Deposit FUEL on Ignition and instantly receive liquid stFUEL tokens representing your position.

Stake via L1

The protocol pools FUEL and stakes it across a distributed network of sequencer operators on Ethereum.

Strengthen Decentralisation

By distributing stake, The Rig enhances the security, censorship-resistance, and uptime of Fuel's decentralised sequencer.

Transitioning Your L2 Stake

Manual Migration (Recommended)

Migrate your stake now to immediately benefit from The Rig's enhanced features. This is a two-step process:

1

Unstake from Fuel L2

Visit the Fuel L2 staking frontend on Ignition, unstake your FUEL, and wait for the unbonding period to complete.

2

Stake on The Rig

Once your FUEL is available, visit The Rig dApp, connect your wallet, and deposit your FUEL to receive stFUEL.

Automatic Migration

Alternatively, no action is required. All remaining L2 staked positions will be automatically migrated to The Rig on September 1st, 2025 at 9:00 AM EST.

  • • All pre-migration sequencer rewards are preserved.
  • • Your stake's value will be converted to an equivalent value of stFUEL based on the exchange rate at the time of migration.
