A boost improves point production; it does not replace the Farming deposit required to produce BSP. Open **VISION → Boosts** to review your active bonuses, manage NFT staking and access the team and referral options. The **Total Boost** panel shows your combined active boost for the selected chain. ## How boosts combine Active boost percentages **add together** to form a single multiplier. They are not multiplied by one another. For example, an **OG boost of 2.5%** and an **Entropy Dolphin boost of 15%** produce a total boost of **17.5%**. A position generating 100 BSP before boosts would generate **117.5 staking points** with that configuration active throughout the same period. Owning several NFTs does not automatically combine all their bonuses. Utility and Special NFTs have separate staking slots, each with its own limit. ## OG boost Eligible **OG NFT holders receive a 2.5% BSP boost** across all supported chains. The OG entitlement associated with a wallet on Ethereum is recognized when the same wallet participates on the other supported chains. This differs from Utility and Special NFT boosts, which apply on the chain where the NFT is staked. ## Utility NFTs A wallet can stake **one Utility NFT per chain**. Its type and tier determine the boost applied to eligible BSP production on that chain. :::caution Utility NFTs must be staked to activate their bonus; holding one in your wallet is not enough. ::: | NFT type | Origin boost | Entropy boost | |---|---:|---:| | **Shrimp** | 1% | 2.5% | | **Dolphin** | 5% | 15% | | **Whale** | 10% | 25% | Origin and Entropy NFTs use the same Utility NFT slot. You choose one active Utility NFT on each chain rather than combining multiple Utility NFT bonuses there. ### From Origin to Entropy **Maelstrom** combines three Origin NFTs of the **same type and chain** into their Entropy version. :::warning The three Origin NFTs are burned in the process. ::: For example, three Origin Dolphin NFTs can be combined into one Entropy Dolphin. Staking that Entropy NFT provides the **15% boost** shown in the table. It occupies the Utility NFT slot, not an additional slot alongside an Origin NFT. ## Special NFTs Special NFTs provide an additional boost through a **separate staking slot**. A wallet can stake one Special NFT per chain alongside its Utility NFT. The boost percentage is defined individually for each Special NFT. These NFTs may be associated with partnerships, events or ecosystem collaborations. :::note **A Special NFT boost applies only on the chain where it is staked.** It adds to the wallet’s other active boosts on that chain. ::: ## Team and referral boosts NFTs are not the only source of boosts. Eligible team members receive **+2.5%** on BSP generated after joining, while eligible users who apply a referral code receive a **+2.5%** BSP boost. These bonuses can combine with active NFT boosts. The benefits for **team leaders and inviters** are different: their rewards from member or invitee activity are Additional Points, not extra percentages added to their own BSP multiplier.

Open **VISION → Boosts** and check the selected network. 2. Select an eligible NFT in the corresponding section. 3. Select **Stake** and follow the flow’s requests for any required point claim, approval or wallet confirmation. 4. Once activation is complete, review the active NFT slot and **Total Boost**. :::info NFT staking activates a point-production bonus. It is separate from staking an Overlaid Asset for yield and from depositing capital in Farming. ::: ## When a boost changes Staking, replacing or unstaking a boost NFT first triggers a **point claim or accounting checkpoint**. This records the points accrued under the previous boost configuration before the new configuration takes effect. Some boosts are already active; others require that claim/checkpoint before activation. **A newly activated boost does not increase points earned before it became active**, and removing a boost does not erase points already generated. For the complete point calculation, see [How Points Work](https://docs.overlayer.fi/farming_season/how_points_work.md).
