How to Stake
Toncoin’s TON
Staking TON with Pier Two is straightforward, especially when using wallet providers like MyTonWallet or your preferred custodian. TON staking varies based on the amount staked, so Pier Two operates multiple validator environments to accommodate different user needs. Pier Two will provide access to the appropriate staking pool, and delegation occurs through the custodian or wallet, by clicking "Add Stake" to generate the transaction details. The minimum required TON is sent to the designated staking address, with "d" included in the memo field. The staking state consists of four phases; Election: when stake must be committed, Buffer: where validators are selected based on the staking amounts committed during the election phase, Validation: Elected validators will participate in proposing and voting new blocks, and Stake hold: where staked tokens are locked for an additional period in case any slashable offenses are detected from the validation phase.
