# $APECoin Staking on JPEG'd
JPEG'd’s goal is to empower all NFT holders and allow them to profit from the perks associated with their NFTs while using JPEG'd.
### Staking APE on JPEG'd
All eligible NFTs in the JPEG'd vault can participate in the APECoin staking program. For users that have enough $APE to stake with their beloved NFTs they can use the [Solo $APE Staking](/jpegd-dao/cdp-lending-guides/get-yield-on-jpegd/usdapecoin-staking-on-jpegd/solo-usdape-staking.md) or, for those missing $APE, they can find $APE providers with whom to share rewards via [P2P $APE Staking](/jpegd-dao/cdp-lending-guides/get-yield-on-jpegd/usdapecoin-staking-on-jpegd/p2p-usdape-staking.md).
Integrating this program on JPEG'd effectively makes it a very attractive place to leverage the value of BAYCs/MAYCs/BAKCs, as it allows to maximize yield opportunities by combining the perks of the [citadel](/jpegd-dao/cdp-lending-guides/get-yield-on-jpegd/farming-with-usdpeth.md) and of the $APE staking program, once again, truly bridging NFTs with DeFi.
### What is the APE Staking Program?
The $APE Staking program allows holders of BAYC/MAYC/BAKC and $APE to stake $APE in different pools, each with their own APRs.
There are 4 pools, each with their rewards:
* $APE Staking Pool
* BAYC Staking Pool
* MAYC Staking Pool
* BAKC Staking Pool
The Incentive Distribution Curve changes year after year and the Staking Pool Allocations for Staking Periods following the Initial Staking Period are determined by the market prices of the BAYC, MAYC, and BAKC NFTs. An average price during Q4 of the previous Staking Period determines the ratio allocated to each of the Staking Pools. The ApeCoin Staking Pool will remain constant at 30%. The rewards emitted by each pool is independent of JPEG'd.
Detailed information regarding the $APE staking program can be found in the AIP [#22](https://forum.apecoin.com/t/aip-22-staking-pool-allocation-reloaded-ecosystem-fund-allocation/5071).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.jpegd.io/jpegd-dao/cdp-lending-guides/get-yield-on-jpegd/usdapecoin-staking-on-jpegd.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
