Starknet Staking

STRK Staking 101: Everything You Need to Know

In early July 2024, the news that Starknet staking is coming to Starknet has been revealed, marking a monumental milestone for the network!

Nimbora is here to break down everything you need to know about this game-changing development, including the best places you can stake your STRK and earn.

What is Staking on Starknet?

Staking in general involves locking up a certain number of your tokens, to support the operations of specific network.

Staking on Starknet involves locking your STRK tokens in the Starknet staking contract to earn rewards proportional to your stake. You can participate in two ways:

  • As a Staker: You'll need to run a full node and stake a minimum of 20k STRK.
  • As a Delegator: You can delegate your STRK tokens to a staker without running a node yourself.

On Nimbora dApp at ➡️ https://app.nimbora.io/stake/ thanks to our liquid staking mechanism, you can stake STRK.

In return, you’ll receive sSTRK — Nimbora Liquid Staking Token, which reflects your staked position.sSTRK increases in value over time as it accrues staking rewards, so your sSTRK balance remains constant while its value relative to STRK grows.
