Once you have ALPHA, you'll need to choose a Stella wallet to store your tokens. Here are some great options available in Canada.
We recommend using a staking pool when staking ALPHA. It's simpler and faster to get started. A staking pool is a group of validators who combine their ALPHA, which increases 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 Stella network. You'll be rewarded with ALPHA for these validations.
In Canada, it's important to consider transaction and staking pool fees. Additionally, there may be a waiting period before you begin earning rewards. The staking pool must generate blocks, which can take some time.
