Thank you for all your contributions. Frankly, it’s nice to see a project we supported on UCG grow over time and add something to itself. That’s why I find your request reasonable. I hope your presence on Soneium will make Astar more visible.

Thank you, @MrKarahanli-Emre

We are doing our best.  
I think with some more coordination with the AD community we can do a lot, (together) both on Astar and on Soneium.

I will continue to update here.

Hi @ilan

Following up on your message, we have identified the issue that prevented the UCG stake from being applied to the NFT Bridge dApp. A new transaction has been initiated by the ACC and should be completed shortly.

Please note that the ACC will consider the **execution date of this transaction** as the official start of your second 4-month UCG period, instead of August 28th.

I will post another message once the new transaction is confirmed. The **first monthly report** for your second period will then be due **one month after that confirmation message**.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Best regards,  
Mouthmouth68

Hi, @Mouthmouth68 and other team members.  
The staking cycle has not started yet.  
Can someone check and see what the hiccup is?

Thank you

As far as we can see @Mouthmouth68 the Dapp staking did not start.  
Please ask your developers to take a look again.

Hi, @SimonB  
This is the report for the first month of the UGC staking period:  
#Governance > dApp Staking Applications

UGC Grant – Monthly Update (NFT Bridges)

## TL;DR

- We **got Chainlink VRF working on Soneium** (with Chainlink’s help).

- **Rewards are live** for **Astar Degens** (and **Algem** , see below) who bridged to **Soneium by the end of October 2025**.

- Claims are **gasless** (we whitelisted the Soneium $TLPT contract).

- **Everyone wins something** : Random rewards between **100 and 100,000 $TLPT**.

- **Stake your $TLPT** here once claimed: [https://nftbridges.xyz/staking/](https://nftbridges.xyz/staking/)

## How to claim (takes ~30 seconds)

- **Open the NFT Bridges dApp** and **log in with the same wallet** you used to bridge your NFT to Soneium.

1. ![Screenshot 2025-11-10 at 1.37.53 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/plasmnet/original/2X/8/89f7d752c76027a0db1f966cb25ad97d09f40b01.png)

- Click **“Rewards.”**

- Click **“Claim.”** That’s it—claims are **gasless**.

## What you can win

- Rewards are driven by **Chainlink VRF (Verifiable Random Function)**—provably fair and tamper-resistant. We have no control over who gets what.

- Each eligible holder receives **between $100 and $100,000 in $TLPT** (Soneium native) upon claiming.

- **Everyone wins something.**

One word of caution - The TX link appears on the transaction screen and disappears after that. We will insert it as a permanent link in the future. Currently, to track the VRF transaction, you must copy/click on the link.  
If you don’t, you will need to wait for the link integration in order to track your VRF activities.

I did not want to delay the VRF any longer than it already had. That’s why we launched it as is.

After you claim: **stake for more**

- Stake your rewards at **[https://nftbridges.xyz/staking/](https://nftbridges.xyz/staking/)** to start earning via our staking engine.

- We’ll publish simple docs so newcomers can go from **claim → stake** in minutes.  
We believe that the staking interface is intuitive, and users will be able to stake and earn with no issues.

Hi, @Mouthmouth68  
I think that the UGC staking rewards are not accumulating. Can you ask someone to check on that?

Thank you.
