Stake your ADA tokens in a few clicks by following these steps:
Cardano’s native token, ADA will be staked to capture new issuance rewards and fee revenue. ADA can be used in these ways:
You maintain custody of your ADA at all times. There is no bonding or unbonding period.
You can unstake your ADA tokens at any given time. You keep full control of your ADA tokens even when they are staked and they are never locked.
No, Cardano currently does not enforce slashing. Poor node behavior, however, can lead to missed rewards.
Current inflation rate is set at 2.01% as of 1/20/22
There’s a maximum supply of 45 billion ADA with a current circulation of ~31 billion.
Rewards are distributed every epoch (~5 days) amongst all stakeholders who have delegated to a stake pool, either to their own stake pool or another pool.
Staking income is staked automatically, which means you will need to unstake to withdraw your staking income.
