About

xSUSHI Staking

xSUSHI is SushiSwap's staking receipt token. When you stake SUSHI at sushi.com, you deposit SUSHI into the SushiBar contract and receive xSUSHI tokens representing your share. A 0.05% fee from every swap on every chain SushiSwap operates on is collected, converted to SUSHI, and added to the SushiBar pool. This makes xSUSHI worth more SUSHI over time — without any action required from the staker.

xSUSHI was the blueprint for protocol revenue sharing in DeFi — created in 2020, before most protocols had any fee distribution mechanism. Kanpai 2.0 further improved the model by directing protocol treasury fees more efficiently toward xSUSHI holders.

What APY does xSUSHI currently pay?
+
xSUSHI APY fluctuates with SushiSwap\'s total trading volume across all chains. Current TVL is ~$38-48M and volume varies. Check sushi.com for current APY — it is real but modest at current volume levels compared to peak.
Does xSUSHI have a lockup period?
+
No. xSUSHI can be unstaked back to SUSHI at any time without waiting. There is no lockup, no vesting, no penalty for early withdrawal.
Is xSUSHI the same on all chains?
+
The SushiBar contract where you stake for xSUSHI is on Ethereum mainnet. Fees from all 40+ chains are bridged to Ethereum and distributed through this contract. You need SUSHI on Ethereum to stake for xSUSHI.
What is Kanpai 2.0?

Kanpai 2.0 is SushiSwap\'s updated protocol fee mechanism that routes 0.05% of all swaps to xSUSHI holders more efficiently. It replaced the earlier Kanpai system with improved cross-chain fee collection and conversion.
Reviews

What Traders Say

xSUSHI Veteran
★★★★☆

"Been staking in SushiBar since late 2020. The xSUSHI mechanism works exactly as described — my SUSHI stash has grown consistently without any action. The yield is modest but genuine. The SUSHI token price decline has been the bigger issue for overall returns."

Revenue Model Analyst
★★★★★

"xSUSHI was genuinely revolutionary when it launched. A protocol automatically sharing trading fees with token holders was novel in 2020. Dozens of protocols have since implemented similar models. SushiSwap deserves credit for this innovation."

New Staker
★★★★☆

"Staked my SUSHI for xSUSHI three months ago. The ratio has increased (more SUSHI per xSUSHI than when I started). Small but real returns. The no-lockup feature is what made me comfortable staking."
