# How does the AutoStake feature work?

The AAP AutoStake feature is a simple yet cutting-edge mechanism dubbed Buy-Hold-Earn that gives $ATHN holders the greatest convenience of usage.&#x20;

**Buy-Hold-Receive** - By simply purchasing $ATHN and storing the token in your wallet, you may earn rebase incentives that are sent straight into your wallet. Every 30 minutes, your tokens will rise.&#x20;

Athena's Positive Rebase formula allows for daily token distribution exactly proportional to daily rebase incentives, worth 2 percent of the total quantity of tokens a $ATHN token stored in your wallet.&#x20;

The rebase payments are awarded to all $ATHN holders at the end of each epoch (rebase period). **Athena holders will get an annual compound interest rate of 148,243 percent if they do not remove their tokens from their wallet.**
