2. 2. Select a ECOMI Wallet

   Once you have OMI, you'll need to select a ECOMI wallet to securely store your tokens. Here are some excellent options tailored for the Italian market.

3. 3. Delegate Your OMI

   We recommend using a staking pool when staking OMI. It's more straightforward and quicker to get started. A staking pool is a collective of validators who pool their OMI, enhancing their chances of validating transactions and earning rewards. You can manage this through your wallet's interface.

4. 4. Begin the Validation Process

   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 ECOMI network. For these validations, you'll receive rewards in OMI.

What to Consider in Italy

When engaging in staking, it's important to factor in the transaction and staking pool fees. Additionally, you may encounter a waiting period before you begin to earn rewards. The staking pool must generate blocks, which can take a bit of time.
