The Staking Boost is an optional multiplier that increases points earned in eligible buckets for participants who stake $CGPT, capped at 5x. It is distinct from the Stakers bucket: the bucket distributes rewards proportionally among registered stakers, while the boost multiplies points earned through activity. Boost availability and the buckets it applies to are campaign-configurable.
Because it multiplies rather than distributes, the boost only pays where a participant is already earning. A staked participant who completes no quests and drives no traffic multiplies nothing.
Campaign configuration decides where it lands. The buckets a boost applies to vary between campaigns, so the same stake can be worth more in one Buzzdrop than another. Like all boosts, it applies to future points only.
