2. 2. Choose a Firmachain Wallet

   Once you have FCT, you'll need to choose a Firmachain wallet to store your tokens. Here are some great options.

3. 3. Delegate Your FCT

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

4. 4. Begin Validation

   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 Firmachain network. You'll be rewarded with FCT 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.
