What is $PNDO token?
$PNDO is the core fee mechanism token within
Pondo Protocol.
It plays a vital role in facilitating the protocol’s operations and
delivering value to its users.
With a fixed initial supply, $PNDO is a deflationary
token - it can only be burnt and never minted, ensuring scarcity over time.
Fixed Supply
$PNDO tokens are limited and cannot be
created again.
Burn-only
The only way to use $PNDO is by burning
it, reducing its supply.
Fee Mechanism
10% of rewards from pALEO withdrawals
go to PONDO’s Rewards Pool.
Core Role
$PNDO powers the protocol's fee and reward
system.
Redeemable Rewards
$PNDO can be burned to get ALEO
credits from the Rewards Pool.
Long-term Value
Holding $PNDO may be more rewarding
over time due to future benefits.
Learn about Pondo staking, depositing ALEO, pALEO liquid staking tokens, rewards, and withdrawals.
Pondo is a liquid staking protocol for Aleo. Users deposit ALEO into the staking pool and receive pALEO tokens that represent their share of the pool.
Open the Pondo staking interface, connect a compatible wallet, and follow the deposit flow. Review the transaction details and network fees before confirming any transaction.
When you deposit ALEO, the protocol issues pALEO to represent your proportional share of the staked ALEO pool. pALEO is a liquid staking token, not a promise of a fixed profit.
pALEO is Pondo’s liquid staking token. It represents a share of the pooled ALEO stake and may allow holders to access supported DeFi integrations while their underlying assets participate in staking.
Pondo’s staking mechanism delegates pooled ALEO across validators. Rewards depend on network staking performance, validator performance, protocol fees, and other factors; they are variable and not guaranteed.
No. pALEO is the liquid staking token representing a share of staked ALEO. PNDO is a separate protocol token described by Pondo as part of its fee mechanism.
pALEO holders can use the protocol’s redemption process to withdraw a proportional amount of ALEO credits. Availability may be affected by protocol conditions, including a rebalance in progress, so check the current interface and documentation first.
No staking method is risk-free. Consider validator performance, smart-contract and protocol risks, redemption timing, wallet security, and changes in staking rewards before depositing ALEO.
Review Pondo’s official documentation and contract information before interacting with the protocol. Verify the domain and contract addresses independently, and never share your wallet recovery phrase.
