2. Select a yearn.finance Wallet
Once you have YFI, you'll need to select a yearn.finance wallet to securely store your tokens. Here are some solid options to consider.
3. Delegate Your YFI
We recommend using a staking pool when staking YFI. It's simpler and faster to get started. A staking pool is a collective of validators who pool their YFI, which increases their chances of validating transactions and earning rewards. You can manage this through your wallet's interface.
4. Start Validating
You will need to wait for your deposit to be confirmed by your wallet. Once it's confirmed, you will automatically validate transactions on the yearn.finance network. For these validations, you will be rewarded with YFI.

What to Consider

There are transaction and staking pool fees you need to consider. Additionally, there may be a waiting period before you begin earning rewards. The staking pool must generate blocks, and this process can take some time.
