Step-by-Step Guide for South African Investors
1. Acquire Sui (SUI) Tokens

2. Select a Sui Wallet
Once you have SUI, you'll need to choose a Sui wallet to store your tokens securely. Here are some solid options to consider.
3. Delegate Your SUI
We recommend using a staking pool when staking SUI. It's simpler and quicker to get started. A staking pool is a collective of validators who combine their SUI, 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 Sui network. You'll be rewarded with SUI 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.
