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 Komodo network. For these validations, you'll receive rewards in KMD.

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.
