# $JUR Staking and the $DOT bonding for parachain slots

The staking of $JUR tokens works similarly, but differently, from the bonding of $DOTs in Polkadot. $DOT holders bond $DOTs in crowdloans to support specific parachains on Polkadot and receive rewards from the crowdloan in which they participated. These rewards are normally paid in parachains' native tokens. 

Similarly, $JUR holders can stake $JUR tokens to support new Societies on Jur and receive their native tokens; they stake and receive tokens from each Society created (see The [$JUR Holder Journey](https://app.gitbook.com/o/0gcIfR6h7zg1xTLArrpK/s/jMNQSqk1n74rnFDPrhBu/~/changes/MDCk1IuX4EPqXimx9US0/jur-economy/usdjur-staking-meta-citizenship/the-usdjur-holder-journey)). 

This logic is designed to avoid compartmentalized interests in specific societies. Rather, a meta-citizen will be incentivized by the success of the ecosystem. For example, society models that are strong in terms of initial social value and less so in the initial internal economy model will find equal support and participation from meta-citizens, and are likely to be the recipients of a major part of the Societies Rewards. 

The model favors the intent to infuse a cooperative dynamic into the ecosystem rather than a competitive one. At present, there is no scarcity of slots available for Societies and Network States on Jur.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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://gitbook.jur.io/jur-documentation/jur-economy/usdjur-staking-meta-citizenship/usdjur-staking-and-the-usddot-bonding-for-parachain-slots.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`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.
