9M How Long Do I Stake For On 9M

Spread the love

One of the most common questions people ask about the 9M platform is, “How long should I stake for?”
In this blog post, I will walk you through a real example from inside my 9M account, explain the
different pledge cycles, and share some practical thoughts on how to decide what might work best for you.

As always, this is not financial advice. I am simply sharing what I am doing and how the platform works,
so you can make your own informed decisions.

What Is Staking on 9M?

On 9M, staking (or pledging) is where you commit a certain amount of funds for a fixed period of time,
in return for a daily return. During that period, your principal is locked and cannot be withdrawn until
the cycle ends. The trade-off is simple: generally, the longer you stake for, the higher the potential
return.

Before staking, 9M allows you to:

Withdraw your investment income into your platform wallet
Receive rewards from the VIP section
Exchange different internal tokens (such as 9MC and USDM) into USDT

Once everything is in USDT, you can then decide which pledge cycle you want to use.

Understanding the Different Pledge Cycles

At the time of recording the video, 9M offers five pledge cycles:

7 days
30 days (about 1 month)
90 days (about 3 months)
180 days (about 6 months)
360 days (about 1 year)

Each cycle locks your funds for that period. For example:

If you choose 7 days, you can expect your funds to be locked for a week.
If you choose 30 days, you cannot access those funds for a month.
If you choose 360 days, your funds are locked for roughly a year, but this tends to offer the highest daily rate.

This can be very useful if you have money sitting in a bank account earning very little, but you know
you will not need it for a set period. For example, if you know you will need the money in about a
month, you might choose a 30-day cycle to earn daily returns in the meantime.

Step-by-Step: What I Did in the Video

In the video, I show exactly what I am doing inside my 9M account. Here is a breakdown of the process.

1. Withdrawing Investment Income

First, I go to the Assets section on the 9M homepage and look at my
Investment Income. In this example, I have an income balance of 44.58.

I choose Withdraw income, then select Deposit into platform wallet.
I click All and then Confirm.

It is important to check the details on the screen, including the handling fee. There is usually a
handling fee of around 5%, which is how the company makes its money. Always double-check
before confirming.

2. Withdrawing 9MC Income

Next, I withdraw my 9MC income in a similar way:

Select Withdraw income
Click All
Check the handling fee and details
Confirm the withdrawal into the platform wallet

3. Receiving VIP Rewards

After that, I go to the VIP section and receive my rewards. In this example, I have
23.34 to receive.

I simply click Receive rewards and then Receive all. Those rewards then
move into my available balance.

4. Exchanging 9MC and USDM into USDT

Once I have everything in the platform wallet, I go back and use the Quick Exchange feature.
The goal is to convert 9MC and USDM into USDT, which I will then stake.

To exchange 9MC:

Choose 9MC as the currency to exchange
Select All so I am exchanging the full balance
Select USDT as the currency to receive
Check the rate (for example, 9MC at 1.9)
Click Confirm

Then I repeat a similar process for USDM:

Select USDM
Click All
Choose USDT as the target
Confirm the exchange

Once those exchanges are finished, everything I want to stake is now in USDT.

5. Choosing the Pledge Cycle and Funding

To keep the maths simple in the video, I decide to stake $110.

I go to the Fund section. This is the part where many people are really asking,
“How long should I stake for?”

Here are the options again:

7 days
30 days
90 days
180 days
360 days

In the example, I choose the 360-day pledge. This means I cannot withdraw that $110 for
another 360 days. However, the longer duration tends to offer the best rate, which is why I opted for it.

I also choose the Strategy fund, and within that there are different options with different
rates. I go for the highest available rate.

Then I:

Enter the amount: 110.00
Check how the system splits it internally (it is all USD, so the split is more of an internal breakdown)
Click Buy

6. Automatic Reinvestment

Before confirming, there is an option for Automatic reinvestment. This means that when the
cycle ends and you have earned profits, the system can automatically reinvest them.

You have two choices here:

Leave Automatic reinvestment turned on, so profits are rolled over
Turn it off if you would rather receive the funds back into your balance and decide what to do manually

In the video, I choose to leave automatic reinvestment turned on and then click Confirm.

I can then view the fund details, including the maturity time, which in my case is almost
a year ahead, “all but five days” from the date of the transaction.

7. Watching the Investment Grow

Finally, I go back to the Assets section to check the updated figures. My
Investment income is now up to 2,195 USD, which shows that the account is
continuing to grow.

This is the basic process that I follow when staking on 9M.

So, How Long Should You Stake For?

There is no single right answer – it really depends on your situation. Here are a few things to think about:

Do you need access to the money soon?
If you know you will need the money in a month or two, a 7-day or 30-day cycle may make much more sense.
Are you comfortable locking funds for longer?
If you are happy to leave the money alone and accept the lock-up, the 180-day or 360-day options may be attractive.
How do you feel about risk?
As with any online platform, there is always risk. Only ever invest what you can afford to lose.

Personally, in the example, I chose 360 days because I am treating it as a longer-term stake and
I want to benefit from the higher rate. But your choice may be completely different, depending on your plans.

Important Things to Remember

Once you choose a pledge cycle, your funds are locked until that period ends.
There is usually a 5% handling fee on certain transactions – always check before confirming.
Only stake what you are prepared to leave locked for the full duration.
This is not financial advice. Always do your own research and consider your personal circumstances.
