# Partnerships

**What is available to projects who decide to use Staking Options?**\
Early adopters of Staking Options will be rewarded in DUAL Staking Options to align the incentives of both projects. Staking Option grants are proposed and voted in the Dual DAO.

**What is the partnership with Mango Markets?**\
Staking Options are used to facilitate a [MNGO token buyback](https://forum.mango.markets/t/mango-buyback-partnership-proposal-dual-finance/656) for the [Mango DAO](https://dao.mango.markets/dao/MNGO).&#x20;

**What is the partnership with BONK?**\
BONK was the first project to utilize Staking Options as a loyalty program. BONK holders who commit to locking up there tokens earn options to buy BONK for a fixed price over that same period of time. Periodically these pools are renewed so keep an eye out for an opportunity to participate!

**What is the partnership with GSR?**\
[GSR](https://www.gsr.io/) plays a key role in supplying liquidity to Dual Investment Pools (DIPs). They are integrated into Dual Finance's API to stream option prices on SOL. This is the only place in crypto with streaming SOL options! Further, GSR plans to participate within the Staking Option Marketplace and refer projects who could use a boost to the community incentives and liquidity.

**What DEXs does the Risk Manager run on?**\
The main integration is into Openbook & Manifest to provide spot liquidity. See the open source trading algorithm here:

**Where can I track what projects have earned DUAL Staking Option grants?**\
The [Status page](https://status.dual.finance/) SO tab has details for all live Staking Options including DUAL. Details for individual grant proposals are best viewed on [Realms](https://app.realms.today/dao/dual%20dao).

**What oracle providers are used?**\
Oracles are only used for the Risk Manager as a backstop liquidity provider. Since Staking Options and DIPs are physically settled, the settlement process does not require a final price. A combination of price data is used from Pyth, Switchboard, and Chainlink. Soon DIA implied volatility data will also be used.
