2. 2. Choose a Metis Wallet

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

3. 3. Delegate Your METIS

   We recommend using a staking pool when staking METIS. It's simpler and quicker to get started. A staking pool is a group of validators who combine their METIS, 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 Metis network. You'll be rewarded with METIS 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.
