# Overview

Nucleon is a liquid staking solution for Conflux PoS backed by industry-leading staking providers. Nucleon lets users stake their CFX- without locking assets or maintaining infrastructure.

Our goal is to solve the problems associated with Conflux PoS staking - illiquidity, immovability and accessibility - making staked CFX liquid and allowing for participation with any amount of CFX to improve security of the Conflux network.

### How does Nucleon work?

When staking with Nucleon, users receive xCFX tokens representing their staked CFX. xCFX balances can be used like regular CFX to earn yields and lending rewards, and are updated on a daily basis to reflect your CFX staking rewards. Note that there are no lock-ups when staking with Nucleon, and a minimum deposit of 1 CFX to decrease DDoS risk.

When using Nucleon, staking rewards will be compound in real-time, allowing for participation in the securing of Conflux without the associated risks and downside potential.

### What Makes Nucleon Unique?

Nucleon is the very first liquid staking solution to launch on Conflux eSpace, an EVM-compatible smart contract execution environment build on top of Conflux that allows developers to deploy and execute Ethereum-native dApps and smart contracts within the Conflux ecosystem. NUCLEON aims to build the most robust liquid staking ecosystem on Conflux, with plans to give users more opportunities to participate Conflux POS staking without decrease users token liquidity.
