Staking IQ can be a great option for those who want to hold IQ while earning yield safely and contributing to the network. The steps may seem daunting, especially the first time you attempt them. That's why we've created this guide for you.
To stake IQ, you need to own it. To obtain IQ, you'll need to buy it. You can choose from these popular exchanges.
Once you have IQ, you'll need to choose a IQ wallet to store your tokens. Here are some great options.
We recommend using a staking pool when staking IQ. It's simpler and quicker to get started. A staking pool is a group of validators who combine their IQ, 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 IQ network. You'll be rewarded with IQ for these validations.
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.
