# Staking

{% hint style="info" %}
Only Evolved Ovols, Legendaries, and Evolved Legendaries will emit staking rewards.

Genesis Ovols can still be staked which we encourage to prevent losing your NFTs in hacks.

## Essence

Staked Evolved Ovols receive Essence, our on-chain point system for Ovol NFTs. You are able to use your Essence in the [Burn](https://www.ovols.com/essence/?open=burn) section of the staking site. Essence will be going through a conversion to our new system which will tie the Ovols ecosystem full-circle.
