# Illuvium Staking v2

{% hint style="info" %}
**Staking v2 is a mandatory update for all those staking in the Illuvium Protocol.** We want all of our stakers to experience the full benefits of the upgraded system and leave no ILV token holder behind.
{% endhint %}

Staking v2 extends the functionality of the existing system. Beyond bug fixes and streamlining QoL workflows, the upgrade offers our token holders new-and-improved features, gas efficiency, and a new user-friendly interface.

These user experience enhancements are possible thanks to critical improvements we made to our staking contracts. We conducted and passed various [external audits](https://certificate.quantstamp.com/full/illuvium-part-4-staking-v-2) to ensure our v2 contracts were secure. 

The upgraded contracts and interface give v2 users the power to claim rewards from multiple pools in one transaction, claim their revenue distributions, and more.
