Staking T Tokens
The Basics of Staking Threshold (T) Tokens, and its benefits.
Staking T tokens secures the Threshold Network and enables stakers to get fee waivers/rebates on tBTC mint and redemption fees. Stakers receive direct rebates from real protocol activity, with no inflationary emissions or token unlocks involved.
T Staking for tBTC Fee Rebates/ Waivers
Since the beginning of 2026, T token holders have been able to stake their T to receive fee rebates and waivers when minting tBTC and redeeming BTC. With the reinstatement of minting fees, staking T has become even more valuable for reducing costs when using tBTC on the Threshold Bridge.
The Explorer page in the app will continue to display rebates or fee waivers earned through staking T. Because rebates now apply to both minting and redemption fees, they will appear across both transaction types.
Staking T is optional; it is not required when using, minting, or bridging tBTC.
Staking T (Threshold Tokens) returns a share of the tBTC mint and redemption fees to stakers as rebates. The breakdown below shows exactly how much you can save at each fee tier, giving you a clear basis to evaluate whether staking T offsets the cost of your expected tBTC activity.

$T is available on most decentralized exchanges and major centralized exchanges, giving anyone a path to participate. Staking T is the operational backbone of Threshold Network: stakers provide the security that backs tBTC and earn a share of every fee the protocol generates, aligning incentives between the network and the people who secure it.
