Frequently Asked Questions

Staking is the process of locking your crypto to secure the blockchain network. For your help, you earn rewards on the total amount locked. This percentage payout varies between blockchains. Get more info about staking in our Academy article.

When you stake your crypto using Ledger Live, you own the private keys giving access to your crypto ; which means you have full control over your assets unlike staking coins on an exchange like Binance or Kraken. With Ledger Live, you can therefore choose the validator to whom you delegate your crypto which is not possible on an exchange. In addition, you avoid the fees charged by the exchange for this service.

When staking through Ledger, you have full control over your assets even if you delegate them. You keep control of your private keys secured by your hardware device.

You can unstake your crypto whenever you want in Ledger Live. However, some blockchain protocols require an unbounding period for unstacking and withdrawal, others do not. Do your own research before staking your crypto.

Depending on the blockchain, a certain amount of crypto is needed to run the nodes that help validate the transactions on the blockchain and thus secure the protocol. If you don’t have the amount or the inclination to run the node, then you can delegate your crypto to a validator who will collect the crypto and run the nodes for the delegates and share with you the rewards collected.
