Asset Mantle uses the Delegated Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism, in which users nominate nodes by delegating their coins to a validator node. In return, users receive staking rewards generated by the node. The staking APR varies depending on the network usage, inflation, and total staked supply. You can find the updated value updated in real-time on our website.

Delegations are non-custodial, so the nodes cannot steal the delegator's funds.

The process of undelegating the tokens from the node is called unbonding and takes 14 days to complete. Users can also move their stake instantly from one validator to another using the redelegate function.

There is no minimum amount for staking, but remember to always leave some tokens unstaked to pay for future transactions.

The staking rewards are distributed automatically to our stakers in every block. Your rewards can be claimed anytime within the staking interface. These rewards do not expire, so don't rush. You can re-stake these rewards to earn a compounded interest.

You can cancel your stake anytime within the staking interface. The unbonding period of the Asset Mantle Network is set to 14 days, so the funds will be locked for this time while unstaking.

The consensus mechanism used by Asset Mantle includes a slashing mechanism, in which part of the stake of a node might be slashed if it does not behave correctly. Other risks include protocol bugs, network attacks, and bad key management by the user. We adopt the necessary measures to bring the slashing risks to the minimum. We also have a staking insurance fund to cover losses in case of an accident caused by us.
