# Staking Dotcoin

When staking your BUSD on the dApp, the smart contract will deposit your BUSD into the TVL (into the contract). The BUSD staked into the TVL is locked, it will be returned via the “*My rewards*” section of the dApp. Next you will receive “Dotcoin” which ultimately act as the number of tokens you own. These “Dotcoin” will automatically kick start your path towards passive income generation. The minimum deposit for staking Dotcoin is 10 BUSD\
