How to stake $ROSE

A reliable way to stake and delegate your ROSE is using RockX.

1. Create/Sign in to your Account

Go to RockX Wallet for Oasis Network.

If you do not have an account yet, create one and fund it from either an exchange or get some ROSE tokens from someone who already holds them.

When you create a new wallet you will be shown 24-word mnemonic that you must securely store!

If you already have an account and you use Ledger then connect your Ledger and follow the instructions.

2. Open 'staking' tab

Once you are connected, select the ‘STAKING’ tab.

Find Chorus One among the list of validators and click DELEGATE in that row. The validators are sorted by their staking power. You can also see what commission they take on the staking rewards you earn, as well as how many people already delegate tokens to them.

3. Enter amount of ROSE to delegate

A pop will appear showing the details of the validator. Click on Delegate to proceed. Choose the delegation amount and Gas price

4. Sign the transaction

Sign the transaction by selecting the ‘SIGN AND SUBMIT’ button.

Congratulations! You’re now staking your ROSE tokens, and you should see a screen that looks similar to the one below!

Centrifuge is bridging real-world trade finance assets like company invoices into the world of decentralized finance through the Tinlake asset-backed lending protocol. Through Tinlake, users can tokenize non-liquid assets such as invoices (e.g. ConsolFreight) or streaming royalties (e.g. Paperchain) and borrow against these securitized assets.The Centrifuge Chain, which hosts the Tinlake protocol, is a Substrate-based Proof-of-Stake chain secured by a small set of validators including Chorus One. By delegating Centrifuge (CFG) tokens, stakers help maintain the network and its bridge to Ethereum, for which they earn staking rewards.

How to stake Centrifuge (CFG) tokens

1. Create a wallet using Polkadot JS extension
  1. Download the extension here and add it to your browser.
  2. Go to https://portal.chain.centrifuge.io and  authorize the connection to the extension
  3. Go to settings and update the metadata.
  4. Now go to the extension and create a new address by adding an account.
  5. In the next step change the network name to Centrifuge Mainnet and create an account name and passphrase.
  6. You can then refresh the portal, check the Accounts tab. Your address should appear there.

Make sure to note down your mnemonic seed in a safe place! You will lose access to your funds if you forget or lose it. It is not recommended to store them on an unsecured laptop

  1. The stash account - Main wallet.
  2. The controller account - Used for transactions and thus requires a small amount of tokens only.
Two accounts

                                    

3. Selecting a Nominator
  1. Once you have both the wallets funded with some amount head over to the Network tab and select Staking.
  2. Under the Staking tab select Account Actions and add a nominator by clicking on +Nominator.
  3. The Setup Nominator modal will appear. Make sure you select the correct stash and controller accounts.
  4. In the value bonded field add the number of tokens you want to stake.
  5. In the next step, nominate Chorus One as the validator.
  6. Finally, click on Bond and Nominate and authorize the transaction by clicking on Sign and Submit.
  7. Your nomination will become active in the next session and your CFG tokens will start earning staking rewards

    Unstaking Period 21 Days

    Akash is a decentralized marketplace, where cloud providers (providers) can lease their computing power to users (tenants). The Akash marketplace functions by conducting reverse auctions whereby the tenant creates orders for computing power, and providers bid on these orders. When the tenant chooses a provider, they create a lease. After this, the user deploys a Docker container on the Akash Container Platform where users are able to then run any cloud-native application and access a range of cloud management services like Kubernetes.

    Please note that the unstake period is 21 days. This means that you can only unstake and withdraw coins to your wallet after this time has passed. We wish you profitable staking!

    How to stake INJ (Injective)

    1. Access the Hub

    We will stake via the Injective Hub. Go to https://hub.injective.network/ and click on Connect on the top-right corner to connect with any wallet currently integrated with Injective, which currently includes MetaMask, Ledger, Cosmostation, Leap, Keplr, Torus, or Trezor wallet.

    Wallet List
    2. Explore the dashboard

    Once you get connected you can view your dashboard. On the top right, you can view and copy your INJ address and the equivalent address in Ethereum. The Disconnect option is also found here.

    Your Injective address

    3. Delegate your tokens

    On the dashboard, you can click on Delegate Now to view validators and delegate your INJ tokens to them.

    Delegate Now

    When you click the button, you are shown the list of validators.

    Search for Chorus One in the search box and click on Delegate Now

    A popup window will appear, and you can specify the amount of INJ you wish to stake.

    Click on Delegate and you will be asked to sign a transaction, which will take place entirely on the Injective Chain. This means you no longer need to pay high gas fees!

    Congratulations! You've successfully delegated your INJ tokens. You can head back to the Wallet page to view your delegations.

    4. Claiming rewards and unbonding

    You claim your rewards, distributed continuously every block, on the Wallet page. When you unbond your tokens, you will stop receiving rewards, and your original INJ balance will be returned to you after the unbonding period, which is 21 days. The unbonding period can be changed via community-based governance.

    Fastest Performing and Secure DeFi Wallet | Avalanche Wallet
    2. Purchase some AVAX

    Once you've accessed your wallet, you need some $AVAX! If you bought your AVAX on an exchange, you'll need to transfer it to the X-chain. Copy your X-chain address and use it to withdraw your AVAX from the exchange.

    3. Cross Chain Transfer

    You should now have some AVAX on the X-chain. But staking works with the P-chain so you need to use the "Cross Chain" feature to move your AVAX from the X to the P-chain. You will need to pay a small amount of AVAX as fees so make sure you don't transfer the entire amount.

    4. Select Chorus One Node

    Once your AVAX is on the P-chain, it's time to stake! Click EARN on the left-hand side of the menu.

    Since you want to delegate your AVAX, click on DELEGATE and then ADD DELEGATOR. Now you want to choose the Node you're delegating to. In order to delegate to the @ChorusOne node, copy one of the following two node-ids

    NodeID-4Ubqsj2vfwdGUUYNg1jtYpkYNNLugNBQ9
    NodeID-LkDLSLrAW1E7Sga1zng17L1AqrtkyWTGg

    Go to Search Node ID and paste it there. Click Select. You're almost there!

    Sometimes you might see the message that the Node is oversubscribed. Try using the other nodeID if you see this message. In case, you see this message for all the nodes, feel free to email at support@chorus.one

    5. Confirm Delegation

    Select the end date for your stake, the amount for staking and click on Confirm. That's it. Congratulations. Your AVAX will now start earning rewards and you've just made the network more secure. If this AVAX staking guide helped you, share it with a friend!

    The minimum staking duration is two weeks. A delegator will receive a higher percentage of rewards if they decide to stake for longer amounts (up to a year), thus incentivizing longer stake lengths.

    How to stake SKL (SKALE Network)

    Staking your SKL via the Activate platform and Metamask involves three main steps:

    1. Create an Activate Account & connect your Metamask wallet.
    2. Stake with a validator of your choice.
    3. Manage your Skale staking operations.
    1. Before you get started, please make sure to have the Metamask Browser Extension installed and to have enough ETH in your wallet to cover transaction fees.
    2. If you are using a Ledger device, make sure it runs the newest firmware and to have the latest version of the Ethereum App installed on it.
    3. Please note that you need to stake more than 100SKL.

    1. Create an Activate Account & connect your Metamask wallet

    1a. Create an Account on the Activate Platform

    Visit the Consensys Activate homepage and click “Sign Up” in the top right corner. Fill out the required information and make sure to choose a strong password for your account (Required: Minimum 8 characters, 1 number, 1 special character, 1 lowercase, 1 uppercase).

    You need to verify your eMail address via a confirmation mail that is sent to you right after you filled out the required information. Click the link in the eMail and sign in to your newly created Activate account.

    After your first login, you are asked to provide additional information and pass a KYC in case you want to participate in future token sales that are conducted via the Activate platform. You can either do this right away or come back to it later by visiting the “Your Profile” section in the upper right corner of the Activate UI.

    The first step to staking your Skale is creating an Account on the Activate Platform

    1b. Connect your Account with your Metamask Wallet

    Visit the Activate main menu by clicking the icon in the upper left corner. Then click on Connect Wallet and choose Metamask (you can also use Metamask with a Ledger Device). You will now see your wallet address in the upper right corner.

    Connect your Activate Account with your Metamask Wallet with just a few clicks

    2. Stake with Chorus One
    Properly fund your Account

    In case you do not have any SKL token in your account, make sure to properly fund it before you continue. Simply copy your address by clicking on it. Then send the SKL to it that you want to stake.

    After you fund your account, visit the Staking page on Activate. Here you will find an overview of available validators that are active on the Skale network.

    Fund your account and then visit the “Staking” menu

    To start the staking process, click stake next to the validator of your choice. Read through the displayed information and then click Stake my first SKALE tokens.

    Now choose the amount of your SKL that you want to stake as well as a staking period (currently only 2 months is available). Please note that you need to stake more than 100 SKL and that your staked funds are locked and illiquid for your entire staking period. Once you read through all the information, click Continue. In the subsequent window, click Stake [your amount] SKL to Chorus One.

    Your stake will become active by the beginning of the next epoch (first of every calendar month) and once your delegation is accepted by your chosen validator. Once your transaction is confirmed, you are presented with a summary of your staking request.

    Please note that you need to stake more than 100SKL

    And that’s a wrap! You are now helping to secure the Skale network for which you earn rewards. Congratulations and welcome aboard our Skale validator, good to have you with us!

    3. Manage your Skale staking operations
    Token Inventory

    There are a few things to keep in mind when staking on the Skale network. Within the Activate UI, you can manage most of your staking operations within the “Token Inventory” submenu of the “Staking” page.

    Most staking operations are performed in the “Token Inventory”

    In the Token Inventory menu you find an overview of how your funds are constituted. At the bottom of the page, you can find an overview of your staking operation. Please note that once you staked your SKL, the stake will become active in the subsequent epoch and will remain locked for the entire staking period. The validator you chose to stake with has to accept your delegation.

    The Token Inventory provides you with an overview of your staking operations

    4. Skale Epochs & Rewards

    Epochs are units of time within the Skale network. They equal a one-month calendar period of network activity. They always start on the 1st of each calendar month. Rewards for validators and delegators are distributed at the end of each epoch and you are able to claim them within several days after the end of the epoch. Please note that claiming your rewards incurs a transaction fee, so make sure to have enough ETH in your wallet to cover the fees. Your rewards do NOT expire and you can claim them whenever you please. To claim your rewards, visit the “Token Inventory” and click “Claim [x] SKL”. Approve the transaction in the Metamask pop-up window and, in case you are using a ledger, sign the transaction on your ledger device.

    How you can claim your Skale staking rewards

    5. Auto-Renewal

    The default setting of your staking operation is set to “Auto-renew”. This means that your staking period is automatically renewed for the same period as you initially choose. Hence, your tokens are automatically re-delegated to your chosen validator at the end of your delegation period. You can always choose to stop this by visiting the “Token Inventory” and switching the button next to Auto-renew?.

    Note that this will incur transaction fees that you need to cover. Make sure to stop the auto-renewal a few days before your staking period ends. Also, note that this cannot be reversed. Make sure to turn off “auto-renewal” in case you want your funds liquid after your staking period

    How to stake using Polkadot UI

    You can nominate validators (also known as staking) on Polkadot-JS UI using the following steps

    1. Create an account

    Create a Polkadot account if you don’t have one already. Get the browser extension by visiting Polkadot.js.org/extension

    Click on the extension card and add it to your browser.

    After adding to your browser it will appear as a P icon in the toolbar

    Please note it is recommended to create two accounts: one to use as the controller account and one to use as your stash account. Learn more about this here

    If you want to know more details about how to create an account you can visit the official docs here.Also, make sure you leave a small amount of DOT transferrable in your stash account and that your controller has more than 1 DOT in it. This is in order to have enough liquid funds for paying transaction fees when bonding and unbonding funds.

    2. Bonding the DOTs

    In this step, we will actually go through the process of staking which is comprised of bonding the tokens and nominating the validators.

    • Nominating currently requires a minimum of 120 DOT staked funds on Polkadot (0.1 KSM on Kusama). Please make sure you are above that minimum, otherwise you won't be able to nominate with your staked funds.
    • There is also a maximum of 22,500 nominators in place at the moment. That means, if there are already 22,500 nominators, you will not be able to nominate, even if you have more than the minimum of 120 DOT staked. You can double-check the current number of nominators on the Staking Overview page.  

    Go to the Polkadot-JS UI main page. Click the Staking link under the Network tab at the top. Click “Account actions” (on top). It may take a while to load. If you're using a Ledger, skip the following steps and check the section below.

    You need to bond funds to nominate a validator. So go ahead and click  the + Nominator button(top right).

    Choose your Stash and Controller accounts. It is more secure to choose separate stash and controller accounts. So make sure you create a separate controller account first in the same manner as you created your stash account. Again, make sure you have funds in your controller account.

    Then select the amount you want to bond and the rewards destination and click "Next"

    3. Select validator and nominate

    In the next screen select Chorus One as the validator. Finally, click Bond and Nominate.

    Enter the password for your account and click Sign & submit.

    Sign the transaction using your stash account

    Additionally, if you need to change the nominated validators or unbond your balance you just need the controller account to perform the transaction.

    Before you begin staking, please pay close attention to these important points:

    • Do not bond ALL your funds. Leave a small amount transferable in your account, so that you can pay transaction fees from that (changing validators, bonding more or unbonding your tokens are all transactions that will cost a small fee).
    • Any changes you make will take affect in the next era (which lasts 24 hours on Polkadot), provided you made the changes at least 4 hours before the era ended (whether it's setting up staking for the first time, or changing your validators, bonding more funds, etc), and rewards are distributed after an era ends. So, when you first stake, your rewards will begin to come at the soonest after 1 day and 4 hours, and at the latest after 2 days.

    How to stake using Ledger

    1. Create a Polkadot account on Ledger Live

    Make sure both the ledger live app and device are up to date

    Go to manager in the left panel and install Polkadot app if you haven't already

    Add your account by going to the Accounts tab in the left panel and clicking on the Add Account

    Choose Polkadot in the popup that appears upon clicking Add Account

    Follow the instructions to create the new account

    2. Send/Receive DOTs

    Once you have an account you can buy DOTs directly from the Ledger Live app.

    In case you are unable to buy DOTs directly from Ledger Live you may use an exchange to do so.

    3. Stake/Unstake DOTs

    To stake go to the Accounts tab in the left panel and click on the account for which you want to perform the staking operation

    Once you have your account opened click on Manage on the top-right and under it select Earn Rewards

    Then enter the amount of DOTs you want to bond

    To compound your rewards you can select the Bonded Balance tab instead of the Available Balance tab. Click Continue and confirm the bonding transaction on your device. Finally Nominate a validator in the next step

    Polkadot allows Nominated proof of staking where you are allowed to nominate up to 16 validators. By clicking on the Nominate byou will be able to select the validator. Search for Chorus One and click Continue.

    Congratulations!! You are now staking your Polkadot! You may see your rewards in the portfolio section
