# Token Staking & Liquidity Pools

### Staking <a href="#unstaking" id="unstaking"></a>

$PXL tokens can be staked in your in-game account to unlock additional benefits and boosts for your [game-dev-studio](https://rulebook.riseofthepixels.com/gameplay/game-dev-studio "mention").&#x20;

Once you have some staked tokens, be sure to join one of the existing [factions](https://rulebook.riseofthepixels.com/gameplay/factions "mention")to unlock specific perks and rewards.

### Unstaking <a href="#unstaking" id="unstaking"></a>

Unstaking tokens (in-game) is a 5-day process. At the end of the unstaking process the balance will be automatically added to your liquid balance.

During an unstake tokens do not grant shares in your selected faction.

### Liquidity Pool

To easily swap $PXL tokens, increase liquidity, and stabilize the price there is a liquidity pool on Hive Engine. You can check it out using one of the following links:
