3. Delegate Your XTZ
We recommend using a staking pool when staking XTZ. It's simpler and quicker to get started. A staking pool is a group of validators who combine their XTZ, which increases their chances of validating transactions and earning rewards. You can do 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 is confirmed, you will automatically validate transactions on the Tezos network. You will be rewarded with XTZ for these validations.
