# LQTY Staking

Staking LQTY in Liquity V2 offers a dual-reward opportunity where by staking, you also continue to earn LUSD and ETH rewards from Liquity V1, but also governance (voting) power determined by a time-weighted calculation (the longer you stake, the greater the voting power with the same amount of staked tokens). Unlike other protocols, there is no lock-up period. 

Besides voting power, voters may receive payments (bribes) from external initiatives to increase rewards.
