EARN REWARDS* BY STAKING YOUR EOS
Staking your EOS allows you to passively earn rewards for helping to secure the network.
Through Scatter wallet, and by pairing it with your Ledger hardware wallet, you can easily and securely delegate EOS you want to stake.
You can freely choose a trustworthy validator to get competitive rewards, and you keep ownership of your EOS coins.
WHY STAKING YOUR EOS
The EOS Network is a blockchain platform with a focus on high performance, flexibility, security, and a developer-friendly experience. Being a 3rd-gen blockchain powered by the EOS virtual machine, it uses a WebAssembly engine for fast, near-free transactions.
EOS operates on a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) system, allowing stakeholders to choose the node operators. Unlike traditional blockchains, power is distributed among all participants in the network, rather than being held by block miners.
The technology and community make the EOS Network a popular choice for developers looking to build projects that other blockchains can't support. The network offers a user-friendly experience with multiple tools and resources for users to get started.
The EOS token is the native cryptocurrency of the network and is required to purchase resources such as bandwidth, computation, and storage. This means that developers need EOS tokens to run the DApps they create. The token also serves as a governance token, allowing holders to vote and decide the future of the blockchain together.
