# RMRK Staking: Mana
Summary: a model to generate the MANA fungible token which, apart from having magic-related use-cases in-game is the energy through which Chunkies can be leveled up.
This mechanism describes a method of staking RMRK to earn MANA, boosting the generation with Kanaria, and using the MANA to attempt to level up your Chunkies.
## Sources
- Chunkies can be minted by anyone for 0.5 xcRMRK
- MANA is a fungible ERC20 token
- MANA is generated at a relative rate of 1 per 431 xcRMRK per day (so 0.00232 MANA per day per 1 xcRMRK)
- MANA is generated at a higher rate if a Kanaria is staked alongside **at least 431** xcRMRK:
- each LE bird adds 0.00232 MANA to base income
- each Rare bird adds 0.0232 MANA to base income
- each Founder / Super Founder bird adds 0.232 MANA to base income
## Drains
- Chunkies need 10 x 2^level of MANA to attempt to level up, and have a chance to die as follows:
| Level up to | Mana needed | Chance of Death |
| -------- | -------- | -------- |
| 2 | 40 | 2% |
| 3 | 80 | 5% |
| 4 | 160 | 10% |
| 5 | 320 | 15% |
| 6 | 640 | 25% |
| 7 | 1280 | 35% |
| 8 | 2560 | 50% |
| 9 | 5120 | 70% |
| 10 | 10240 | 90% |
MANA is burned and removed from circulation.
