3. Delegate Your MATIC
We recommend using a staking pool when staking MATIC. It's simpler and quicker to get started. A staking pool is a collective of validators who combine their MATIC, which increases their chances of validating transactions and earning rewards. You can manage this through your wallet's interface.
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 Polygon network. You'll be rewarded with MATIC for these validations.
