3. 3. Delegate Your MKR in India

   We recommend using a staking pool when staking MKR. It's simpler and quicker to get started. A staking pool is a collective of validators who combine their MKR, increasing their chances of validating transactions and earning rewards. You can easily do this through your wallet's interface.

4. 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 Maker network. For these validations, you will be rewarded with MKR.

What to Keep in Mind

When engaging in staking, it's important to factor in transaction fees and staking pool charges. Additionally, there may be a waiting period before you begin to earn rewards. The staking pool must generate blocks, which can take some time to accomplish.
