2. 2. Select a STP Wallet

   Once you have STPT, you'll need to choose a STP wallet to store your tokens securely. Here are some solid options to consider.

3. 3. Delegate Your STPT

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

4. 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 STP network. You'll be rewarded with STPT for these validations.

What to Keep in Mind

There are transaction and staking pool fees you need to take into account. Additionally, there may be a waiting period before you begin earning rewards. The staking pool will need to generate blocks, and this process can take some time.
