# How to Stake VVV on BaseZap — Two-Step Wallet Guide

> Step-by-step guide to staking VVV tokens on BaseZap. Covers acquiring VVV, approving the contract, and completing the stake on Base mainnet.

To stake VVV on BaseZap, you need VVV tokens in a Base-compatible wallet. The staking process involves two wallet interactions: an approval step and the stake step itself. Both are non-custodial — you remain in control throughout.

<Info>
  Before you begin, make sure you have:

  * A Base-compatible wallet (Base Smart Wallet, MetaMask, Rainbow, or any wallet that supports Base mainnet)
  * VVV tokens on Base mainnet
  * A small amount of ETH on Base for gas (less than \$0.01 per transaction)
</Info>

## Getting VVV

VVV is available on Base mainnet and was created via Clanker (contract: `0x8C1c...3ba3`). You can acquire VVV through any Base-compatible DEX — search for the contract address to find the correct token pair and avoid lookalikes.

Once you hold VVV in your wallet on Base, you are ready to stake.

## Staking Your VVV

<Warning>
  Always verify you are on **basefarcaster.vercel.app** before approving any transactions. Never approve token allowances from unknown sites.
</Warning>

<Steps>
  <Step title="Navigate to the Stake page">
    Go to [basefarcaster.vercel.app/stake](https://basefarcaster.vercel.app/stake) in your browser or within the Farcaster mini app.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect your wallet">
    Click **Connect Wallet** and select your Base-compatible wallet (Base Smart Wallet, MetaMask, Rainbow, etc.). Make sure your wallet is set to Base mainnet.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter the amount to stake">
    Type the amount of VVV you want to stake into the input field. You can stake any amount up to your available VVV balance.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Approve the staking contract">
    Click **Approve** and confirm the approval transaction in your wallet. This grants the staking contract permission to move the specified amount of VVV on your behalf.

    <Note>
      The approve step grants the staking contract permission to move your VVV. You only need to approve once per staking session. This is standard ERC-20 behavior.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the stake transaction">
    Once the approval confirms on-chain, click **Stake** and confirm the staking transaction in your wallet.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Staking complete">
    Your VVV is now staked — powered by Venice AI. You can return to this page at any time to view your staked balance.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Keep a small amount of ETH on Base for gas. Approval and stake transactions each cost less than \$0.01.
