3. 3. Delegate Your AAVE

   We recommend using a staking pool when staking AAVE. It's simpler and quicker to get started. A staking pool is a group of validators who combine their AAVE, increasing their chances of validating transactions and earning rewards. You can do this through your wallet's interface.

   You'll need to wait for your deposit to be confirmed by your wallet. Once it's confirmed, you'll automatically validate transactions on the Aave network. You'll be rewarded with AAVE for these validations.

What to Be Aware Of

There are transaction and staking pool fees to consider. Additionally, there may be a waiting period before you start earning rewards. The staking pool needs to generate blocks, which can take some time.
