Staking Launches on Starknet

As of November 26th, staking is officially live on Starknet, marking a major milestone for the Ethereum layer-2 network. This development enables token holders to actively participate in securing the blockchain while earning staking rewards. Validators and delegators can now stake their STRK tokens to contribute to Starknet’s decentralization.

Stakecito has partnered with Staking Rewards to make the staking process as straightforward as possible for users. In this article, we’ll walk through the steps to start staking STRK tokens with Stakecito.

Why Stake on Starknet?

Staking allows network participants to secure the blockchain and earn rewards. Validators operate nodes to process transactions, while delegators can lend their token weight to a validator without running infrastructure.

One thing to note: Starknet has a 21-day unstaking lock-up period for both validators and delegators, ensuring network stability and security during the unstaking process.
