Staking 101 (PoSV & PoSV v2)

ReddCoin uses Proof-of-Stake Velocity (PoSV) — a design that rewards both:

• Stake (ownership / long-term alignment)
• Velocity (activity / circulation as a real currency)

This is part of our values: PoSV is designed to support a social currency without the waste of energy-intensive proof-of-work.

Quick intuition (jargon-free)

• If you keep RDD in your wallet and stake, you help secure the network.
• Velocity is about the movement of RDD through real use — it’s a signal of a healthy social currency.
• PoSV v2 improves how rewards are distributed over time (and is aligned with sustainable, community-first network security).

Deep dive: the “why” behind PoSV

PoSV was designed to support ReddCoin as both: - a store of value (stake) - a medium of exchange (velocity) That’s a social equity design choice: we want real usage to matter, not just passive accumulation.
