How to stake with MetaMask Pooled Staking

bilgi

MetaMask Pooled Staking is not available to users in the United States or the United Kingdom.

Before you use MetaMask Pooled Staking, please familiarize yourself with ETH staking more generally and the risks of the service.

How to stake

  1. Head to the MetaMask Portfolio 'Stake' page by selecting 'Move Crypto' in the left-hand menu, and then click 'Stake'. Make sure your wallet is connected.

  2. Select the 'MetaMask Pool' tab on the staking page. On the left of the screen you'll see a panel that includes the address of your currently selected account, a field where you can input the amount of ETH you want to stake, and a 'Staking info' box detailing the rewards rate. We'll call this panel the staking widget:

  1. From the available ETH—any ETH in your selected account, indicated at the top of the widget—input the amount you'd like to stake. The estimated annual rewards, gas fee, and total transaction amount will update in the widget. If you're happy to proceed based on the displayed information, click the 'Continue' button. Clicking 'Continue' prompts a MetaMask transaction that you'll need to sign in your wallet to confirm the deposit.

  1. Once you've signed the transaction in MetaMask, you'll see a 'Transaction in progress' message, followed by 'Transaction complete' once your signed transaction is confirmed on the blockchain:

That's all there is to it — the deposit will now be reflected to the right of the staking widget, on the MetaMask Pooled Staking homepage, and you will start receiving ETH rewards.

If you run into any problems, contact support by hitting the “Start a conversation” button on the homepage of this site.

Since staking rewards are automatically staked, you will only realize your rewards once you unstake. Although rewards are not guaranteed, this mechanism means your stake will continually compound any rewards received without you having to take any action, optimizing your rewards.
