Designing STC Mining with NFTs: Inside BUBUVERSE’s STC Staking Labubu

BUBUVERSE approaches token distribution differently by separating ownership from production, and the STC Staking Labubu system is a clear example of this design choice.

STC Staking Labubu is a functional NFT created specifically to act as a mining unit inside the Genesis STC Pool. Instead of distributing tokens immediately through trading or airdrops, STC enters circulation gradually through staking-based production.

Each STC Staking Labubu contributes mining power to the pool. Rewards are calculated proportionally, meaning users receive STC based on their share of total staking power. This model removes randomness and ensures predictable, algorithmic distribution.

The system follows a Bitcoin-inspired halving mechanism. Every four years, STC emissions are reduced by half. This design limits long-term supply growth and encourages early participation without relying on short-term incentives.

A key design decision is the permanently limited supply of STC Staking Labubu NFTs. Minting is only available during the Christmas Special Sale. Once the event ends, no new mining units will ever be created. This fixes the total mining capacity from the beginning and prevents future dilution.

To support early ecosystem growth, BUBUVERSE currently distributes Starlight Shards as temporary incentives. These rewards are intentionally front-loaded and will decrease after the campaign period ends.

From a system design perspective, STC Staking Labubu represents a shift toward utility-driven NFTs — assets that directly participate in protocol mechanics rather than existing purely as collectibles.
