Hey everyone 👋. On today’s guide, we will explain to you how you can delegate your ATOM using Cosmos block explorers such as Stargazer or Hubble and Ledger without having to deal with the command line.

It’s effortless. In this tutorial, we will guide you step by step.

Through this tutorial, we consider that you successfully recovered your ATOM from the fundraiser and that you use a Ledger device to store them. If you did not restore your wallet yet, we advise you to have a look at Awa Sun Yin guide or check the official documentation.

You can also use the Cosmostation or Wetez wallet if you are looking for another way to store them.

Here are the few steps you need to follow if you want to delegate to POS Bakerz or another Cosmos validator.

  1. Open Hubble or Stargazer and go on the Stakin validator page.

2. Click on Delegate, connect your Ledger, and open your Cosmos app from your Ledger device.

3. Simply input the number of atoms you want to delegate to POS Bakerz, then click on Sign & send the transaction.

4. The last thing you have to do is to confirm the purchase from your ledger. A message will appear on your device; just press the right button to prove it.

And this is it; you have now delegated your ATOM to POS Bakerz.
