# Earn $BOTG by Delegating Your Yield

Beyond its autonomous blockchain infrastructure, Botega empowers you to earn yield through delegation. By delegating your AO capacity, you earn $BOTG tokens as a reward. \
Here’s everything you need to know:

### Delegate your AO Capacity:

Decide how much of your AO capacity to allocate to Botega. The platform’s intuitive interface shows you exactly how many $BOTG tokens you’ll receive based on your delegation amount. 

### Transparent Yield Distribution

Botega displays real-time stats on your expected $BOTG rewards and the current token price, making it easy to track your yield. All distributions follow a transparent schedule, ensuring you know when your rewards will become fully liquid.
