Stake ATOM

This article provides a brief guide for staking ATOM using the Cosmos (ATOM) Dashboard.

❗️

Important Notes:

• The minimum stake amount is 1 ATOM.
• When staking ATOM, your rewards are not automatically restaked. In order to restake rewards you must go through the withdraw rewards flow followed by the stake flow.
• Ensure to have enough ATOM in your connected wallet to cover gas fees.

Follow the steps outlined below:

Step 1. Access Staking Page

1. Go to Wallets & Staking > Staking menu.
2. Staking can be initiated from the Cosmos card as shown below via the Stake button and is also available from the Dashboard.

Step 2. Connect Wallet

1. Connect your wallet from the available wallet options. This will take you to your wallet account and dashboard, where you will be prompted to connect to the Blockdaemon app.

Info:

2. Upon successful connection, you'll see your wallet's information at the top right of the page.

Step 3. Stake ATOM

2. Click Stake to initiate the transaction and follow the on-screen prompts.

Step 4. Confirm the Transaction
