3. 3. Delegate Your ASTR

   We recommend using a staking pool when staking ASTR. It's simpler and quicker to get started. A staking pool is a collective of validators who combine their ASTR, 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 Astar network. You'll be rewarded with ASTR for these validations.

What to Keep in Mind

There are transaction and staking pool fees you need to keep in mind. Additionally, there may be a waiting period before you begin earning rewards. The staking pool will need to generate blocks, which can take a bit of time.
