## 1. Staking API

The Blockdaemon Staking API allows developers to interact with blockchain networks and perform various staking-related operations in a unified interface. It provides a simple, programmatic way to interact with multiple blockchain networks and supports multiple blockchain networks accessible via RESTful API endpoints.

With the Staking API, you can quickly and easily build and deploy applications that automate staking activities and increase efficiency in your blockchain operations. The API allows you to access validator status, rewards, performance, and other relevant metrics and information.

Features of Staking API include:

1. Delegating and undelegating tokens.
2. Building and deploying applications to automate staking activities.
3. Increased efficiency in your blockchain operations.
4. Access to validator status, rewards, performance, and other relevant metrics and information.

> To learn more about it, visit [this](https://docs.blockdaemon.com/reference/staking-api-overview) section.

## 2. Staking Reporting API

The Blockdaemon Staking Reporting API provides easy access to staking information across multiple protocols, including staking reports for financial data analysis. The API provides programmatic access to staking data on blockchain networks, allowing developers to retrieve and monitor staking metrics and performance and receive notifications and updates on changes to the staking environment.

> Refer to [this](https://docs.blockdaemon.com/reference/stakingreporting-api-overview-) section to know more about its features, supported endpoints, and protocols.

## 3. Blockdaemon API Suite

The Blockdeamon API Suite includes four sub-apis:

> The Blockdeamon API Suite is available in four price tiers, learn more about our different pricing plans [here](https://www.blockdaemon.com/api/pricing).

### ➡️ Blockdaemon Data API

The Blockdaemon Data API provides simple and scalable blockchain access to more than a dozen top protocols through standard and consistent API endpoints. With the Blockdaemon Data API, you can easily interact with multiple major protocols through a single, universal blockchain API.

> To learn more about its features, visit [this](https://docs.blockdaemon.com/reference/rest-api-overview) section.

### ➡️ Blockdaemon RPC API

Get blockchain API access to major protocols through their RPC APIs. Blockdaemon RPC API is a fast, flexible, and extensible source of data that requires a minimum time investment to access the most useful data with the least amount of customization needed. Engineers can run their nodes, access historical blockchain data, and build <Glossary>dApp</Glossary> with speed and reliability.

> Visit [this](https://docs.blockdaemon.com/reference/rpc-api-overview) section for a quick overview of our RPC API.

> ❗️ OFAC Screening
>
> As part of our compliance requirements, any API requests made to a sanctioned address will be automatically blocked.
>
> This screening applies to **all write operations** made through our APIs. Read-only requests that do not involve written actions to the blockchain will not be affected.
