Earn network rewards by helping secure a proof-of-stake blockchain.
Staking is the mechanism by which proof-of-stake blockchains — Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, and many others — reach consensus and issue new coins. In return for locking up tokens and behaving honestly, stakers earn a share of network rewards.
Typical yields
3% – 12% APY depending on the network
Lock-up
Ranges from none to weeks; check each asset
Slashing
Misbehaving validators can lose part of their stake
How to access
Run a validator, delegate, or stake via an exchange
Validators vs delegators
Validators run the software that produces and verifies blocks. Delegators assign their stake to a validator without running infrastructure themselves.
Most retail stakers delegate through wallets or exchanges.
How rewards are generated
Rewards come from two places: new coin issuance and transaction fees. The exact split and yield vary by network.
Real yield equals nominal yield minus commission, slashing risk and inflation.
Lock-ups and unbonding
Some networks let you unstake instantly; others require an unbonding period of days or weeks during which funds don't earn but also can't be sold.
Plan liquidity accordingly.
Slashing
Validators that double-sign, go offline for extended periods, or misbehave can be slashed — losing part of their staked balance. When you delegate, you inherit a share of that risk.
Choose validators with a strong operational track record.

Frequently asked questions
Is staking risk-free?
No. Even excluding market risk, slashing, validator failure and smart-contract bugs can reduce or eliminate rewards.
Do I keep control of my coins?
When staking through Nexone, coins remain in custody but bonded to a validator. Read each asset's terms.
How often are rewards paid?
Frequency varies by network — from every block on Solana to every few days on many others. Nexone displays accrual per asset.
Can I lose my principal?
In extreme cases, yes — via slashing or a catastrophic bug. Nexone lists only established networks with mature staking infrastructure.
Is staking legal in my country?
Regulation varies. Nexone offers staking only where permitted.
What's liquid staking?
A design where you receive a tradeable token representing your staked position, letting you keep exposure to yield while remaining liquid.
