Staking Agoric (BLD)

Head over to https://wallet.keplr.app/ and select the Agoric chain on the left side of the menu. If you are in need of a Kepler wallet installation guide, you can check our Cosmos staking guide here.

Currently, BLD is available for purchase on Huobi, Coinlist Pro and on the Osmosis DEX.

Select a validator that suits your preferences and click on “Manage”, on the pop-up window click on “Delegate”. Enter the amount you wish to stake on the following window and select “Delegate”, and click on “Approve”. You can also participate in the governance voting proposals in the “Governance” section.

Always do your own research before choosing a validator.

Staking will lock your funds for 21 days and, in the unbounding process, you will not be receiving rewards. Should you wish to change, or delegate your funds to another validator, you can use the “Redelegate” option, the process is instant and doesn’t require any waiting period.

Leave some spare BLD to cover transaction fees.

Rewards

As soon as you delegate you will start earning rewards (Every block, 10s). We can verify on our Keplr dashboard the rewards accrued. Rewards need to be claimed and can be redelegated to increase our staking size or for other purposes.

Remember that claiming rewards incurs transaction fees.

If you have any questions, looking for alternatives to delegate, or just want to chat, you can contact us on the following channels:
