Forget the usual liquidity bribes. $THQ is pushing a different model: staking as insurance. Users don’t just stake for yield, they stake to secure outcomes. Lock $sTHQ and you mint αTHQ, which shapes emissions. The longer the lock, the higher your weight. That time-weighted commitment becomes a signal of belief and an instrument of influence. And crucially, it’s all backed by protocol fees. If Theoriq scales agent usage, the flywheel feeds itself. If it doesn’t, emissions become weightless. Staking as skin in the game. Not just yield farming, but protocol co-signing.
