Frequently Asked Questions
Proof of Stake (PoS) is a consensus mechanism in blockchain networks where validators are chosen to create new blocks and confirm transactions based on the number of coins they hold and are willing to "stake" as collateral, rather than competing through computational power.
Staking rewards are incentives earned by participants who lock up their cryptocurrency to support the network's operations, such as validating transactions and securing the blockchain. These rewards typically come in the form of additional coins or tokens, proportionate to the amount staked and the duration of the staking period.
You can earn up to 5% APY on the amount chosen to be staked
There is a minimum of 1 NEAR required to start staking
Clients can stake NEAR for any duration they choose, with no minimum or maximum limits on the staking period.
Ndax charges an industry-standard 20% fee on the rewards generated through staking. As an example, if NEAR Protocol (NEAR) has a 5% APY, this means you’ll receive 80% of the 5% earned rewards, while Ndax receives 20% as a staking fee. Our staking fee covers the cost of anti-slashing (security/protection), infrastructure management, as well as any fees paid to 3rd party staking providers.
