HBAR Staking - Hedera

EARN REWARDS* BY STAKING YOUR HBAR

Staking your HBAR allows you to passively earn rewards for helping to secure the Hedera network.

Through HashPack Wallet, and by pairing it with your Ledger hardware wallet, you can easily and securely delegate HBAR you want to stake.

You can freely choose a trustworthy validator to get competitive rewards, and you keep ownership of your Hedera (HBAR) coins.

WHY STAKING YOUR HBAR

Hedera Hashgraph is a decentralized blockchain platform that utilizes a variant of the hashgraph consensus algorithm. It offers a secure, fast, and fair infrastructure for building decentralized applications (dApps). The platform uses a network of validators to maintain security and stability, while token holders can participate in governance decisions. The native cryptocurrency of the network is HBAR, and the platform is designed for scalability and public accessibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can HBAR be staked?

Yes, HBAR can be staked. Staking HBAR involves locking up your tokens to support the security and operation of the Hedera network. By staking, you can earn rewards in the form of additional HBAR tokens while contributing to the network’s decentralization and consensus mechanism. Staking HBAR provides an opportunity for token holders to actively participate in the network and potentially earn passive income.

How much can you earn staking HBAR?

The APR for staking HBAR to a validator is currently around 6,5%.

What is the staking unlock period for HBAR?

There is no lock-up period when accounts are staked to a node. Stakers are not required to specify a specific amount of HBAR to stake from their account. Instead, the entire balance of the account is automatically staked to the chosen node or account. In this process, there is no notion of “bonding” or “slashing” of your tokens. Consequently, the staked account balance remains liquid at all times.
