# How Does Auto-Staking Work?

How Does Auto-Staking Work?

The AAP Auto-Stake feature is a simple yet cutting-edge function called **Buy-Hold-Earn**, that provides the ultimate ease of use for $Amano holders.

**Buy-Hold-Earn** - By simply buying and holding a $Amano token in your wallet, you earn rebase rewards as interest payments directly into your wallet. Your tokens will increase **every 15 minutes**.

Using a Positive Rebase formula, Amano makes it possible for token distribution to be paid directly proportional to the epoch rebase rewards, worth 0.022916% every 15-minute epoch period of the total amount of $Amano tokens held in your wallet. The rebase rewards are distributed on each EPOCH (15-minute rebase period) to all $AMANO holders.

**This means that without moving their tokens from their wallet, Amano holders receive an annual compound interest of** 306,720.043**% for Year 1.**

**The interest rebase rate then reduces after the first 12 months.**
