Stacks (STX)

Due to the high operational cost of managing STX staking, we ask for a minimum staking position of 100k STX per customer.

Please notify your point of contact at Kiln before delegating to our pool.

Staking mechanics

On the Stacks network, staking is called "stacking" and Validators are called "Signers".

Stack activation time

Next stacking cycle: O-2 weeks

Stack lock-up time

Next stacking cycle: O-2 weeks

Rewards frequency

First rewards: 1 epoch after stack is active (0-2 weeks). Rewards frequency: beginning of every epoch (2 weeks). Last rewards: next rewards to be earned after unstacking.

How do I perceive my rewards?

When staking STX, rewards are earned in BTC. Before initiating a stake, you need to notify the Kiln team and communicate a BTC address where your rewards will be manually sent at the end of every stacking cycle. The Kiln reward address receives 100% of all rewards. Every 2 weeks, we will compute the share of rewards that was generated by your stake and rebate you the rewards accordingly.

Auto-compounding

No

Self-bond

None

Active set

Any Signer with more than 100k staked STX. This minimum is dynamic and grows as more network participants stake their STX.

Slashing

No automated slashing currently implemented in the protocol.

Relationship between validator stake balance and rewards

Linear. The more stake balance there is on the validator, the more rewards it will earn.
