Secure the network. Earn rewards.
Staking is the process of locking your LYTH tokens to support network operations such as block validation, transaction processing, and governance. In return, stakers receive protocol-level rewards distributed each epoch.
Unlike proof-of-work mining, staking on Monolythium is energy-efficient and accessible to anyone holding LYTH tokens. You can delegate your tokens to a validator or run your own node to participate directly in consensus.
Network Security
Your staked LYTH helps secure the network against attacks. Validators with higher stake have more weight in consensus, making the chain resilient.
Passive Income
Earn LYTH rewards automatically every epoch. Rewards are proportional to your stake and compounding is available through auto-restaking.
Governance Rights
Stakers gain voting power on protocol proposals. Your stake directly influences the future direction of the Monolythium ecosystem.
How to stake LYTH tokens
Follow these four steps to start earning staking rewards on the Monolythium network. The entire process takes less than five minutes.
Get LYTH Tokens
Acquire LYTH tokens from a supported exchange or DEX. Transfer them to a compatible wallet such as Keplr or MetaMask (EVM).
Connect Your Wallet
Visit the Monolythium staking portal and connect your wallet. The interface supports both native Cosmos wallets and EVM-compatible wallets.
Choose a Validator
Browse the active validator set and choose one based on commission rate, uptime, and community reputation. Diversify across multiple validators for security.
Delegate & Earn
Enter the amount of LYTH to stake, confirm the transaction, and start earning rewards. Rewards accrue each epoch and can be claimed or auto-compounded.
Run a Monolythium validator
Validators are the backbone of the Monolythium network. Running a validator requires technical expertise and a minimum stake commitment.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about staking on Monolythium.
What is the minimum amount to stake?
The minimum amount to delegate is 100 LYTH. This places you in the Explorer tier with a base APY of 6.5%. There is no maximum delegation limit for delegators.
How long is the unbonding period?
The unbonding period is 14 days. During this time, your tokens will not earn rewards and cannot be transferred. This is a security measure to prevent rapid stake movement during attacks.
Can I redelegate to a different validator?
Yes, you can redelegate your stake to a different validator instantly without waiting for the unbonding period. However, you can only redelegate once per validator pair within a 14-day window.
What happens if my validator misbehaves?
If your validator is slashed for double-signing or excessive downtime, a portion of your delegated stake may be slashed proportionally. We recommend delegating to multiple validators and monitoring their performance regularly.
How are staking rewards calculated?
Rewards are calculated based on the total amount of LYTH staked across the network, the inflation rate, and your individual stake proportion. Rewards accrue each epoch (approximately every 6 hours) and are distributed minus the validator's commission.
