Supply the house bankroll
Staking SDICE supplies capital to the game bank. Player wagers enter the game’s accounting and winning payouts leave it. Bank capital shares represent exposure to the bankroll: its value can rise when the house wins and fall when it pays players.
This is not a fixed-interest savings account. The bank can lose, SDICE’s market price can change, and available liquidity or active reserved liabilities can constrain withdrawals.
Capital shares and fee power are different
Lock tiers can increase the weight used to allocate fee rewards. That weighted fee power is distinct from ownership of capital. A larger fee multiplier does not multiply the principal available to withdraw.
Choose the term deliberately. Flexible, time-locked and forever stakes have different withdrawal conditions. Expired timed stakes retain their fee boost until withdrawal; renewing the same term currently requires withdrawal and a new deposit. Increase Lock only raises a stake to a higher tier. Forever principal does not unlock. Claims of earned fees are separate from withdrawing the principal.
Read the bank before depositing
More → Banking shows the Bank Overview, your stakes, lock status, fee rewards and referral information. Inspect the live capital and available balance there; a historical screenshot is not a current liquidity quote.
Review the selected tier, amount, lock and wallet transaction. Confirm the receipt before treating the stake as active. If submission is uncertain, reconcile the original signature before trying again.
The game bank is separate from Perps
SDICE Perps uses its own loss-backed payout pool and pSDICE ownership accounting. Staking SDICE in the game bank does not create pSDICE, and staking pSDICE in Perps does not buy a game-bank capital share. They are separate systems with different rules.
