What does staking on Cardano mean?
Staking on Cardano means delegating your ADA (Cardano coins) to a stake pool to support the network and, in return, receive rewards in ADA. You retain full control of your ADA at all times.
How does staking work?
When you stake, you delegate your ADA to a stake pool like the Maracuja Pool. The pool helps secure the network and validate transactions. In return, the pool earns rewards, which are distributed proportionally to the delegators.
Can I use my ADA while staking?
Yes! Your ADA remains in your wallet and can be moved or used at any time. Delegating is safe and does not affect the availability of your coins.
Why should I choose the Maracuja Pool?
The Maracuja Pool operates with a decentralized and high-performance infrastructure, with a block producer in Germany and relay nodes in Australia, Japan, and Germany. This helps decentralize the Cardano network while ensuring high performance and reliability.
Are there risks in staking?
Staking is secure, as your ADA never leaves your wallet. There is no risk of losing your ADA. The only potential variation is in the rewards, which depend on the overall network activity.
How often do I receive rewards?
Rewards are typically distributed every five days, at the end of each new epoch. You can track your rewards directly in your wallet.
