Whether you’ve been holding some crypto for a while or you just got started, there’s still so much potential to unleash - it’s time to put your crypto to work! Staking means temporarily ‘locking’ your crypto and getting rewarded for it with... guess what? More crypto!

Here comes the science bit: staking involves participating in proof-of-stake blockchains to support the security of the network, similar to mining. Examples of proof-of-stake blockchains include Ethereum, Cardano, Polkadot, and Tezos. As an incentive for securing the network, participants are compensated with rewards.

Today, staking your own crypto is a challenge for most investors, as it can be highly technical and complex. But don't worry, we take care of all those things so you don't have to.

Staking is available in the UK & select EEA markets
