# Celestia

Celestia is a layer 1 blockchain that operates on proof-of-stake consensus and data availability. As a delegator, you can actively contribute to the security of the Celestia network by staking the native token TIA and voting on governance proposals.

Below is the key specific information about TIA.

| Minimum Staking Amount       | 1 TIA.                                                                                                                                                                                                |
| Bonding Time                 | -                                                                                                                                                                                                     |
| Unboding Time                | 21 days.                                                                                                                                                                                              |
| Slashing Risk                | The risk of slashing arises when double signing occurs, potentially resulting in a 2% loss of stake.                                                                                                  |
| Staking Rewards Distribution | Staking rewards are generated and distributed through transaction fees and inflation. Transaction fees are collected and distributed to stakers, while the inflation rate increases the total supply. |
| Staking Rewards Compound     | Celestia staking rewards are claimed manually.                                                                                                                                                        |
| Inflation Rate               | The initial rate is set at 8% per year and decreases by 10% each year until it hits a stable rate of 1.5%. Currently, it stands at **10.5%** (as of Jan 2025).                                        |
