IOST New Staking Mechanism Now Unveiled!
Following the successful launch of IOST Node Program v2.0 took effect, IOST launched the new Staking Mechanism to better satisfy the needs of our users.
Now, it only takes 3 days for on-chain voters to unvote (unstake), comparing to the usual 7 days. This enables voters to have more flexibility while enjoying high returns.
At this point, the freeze period for all voting channels on IOST has been shortened to 3 days. For other voting channels, such as the Huobi pool, OKEx pool, OB pool, Liebi pool, Cobo pool, BigOne, KuCoin (part of IOST Soft Staking Program), etc., please follow their official announcement channels for more information regarding the freeze period.
