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

4. 4. Start Validating

   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 Gems network. You'll be rewarded with GEM for these validations.

What to Keep in Mind

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 will need to generate blocks, and this process can take some time.
