Polygon Staking
FAQ

What is Polygon(POL) staking?

Polygon (POL) staking is a way for users to earn rewards for helping to secure and validate transactions on the Polygon network by contributing their POL to validator nodes via Ankr Staking. Polygon is a Layer 2 scaling solution for Ethereum, which means it helps to improve the speed and efficiency of Ethereum transactions.

How does Polygon(POL) staking work?

Ankr Staking offers Polygon token holders the opportunity to stake POL and, in return, claim the Polygon Liquid Staking token — ankrPOL. The ankrPOL token is a reward-bearing token, meaning that the fair value of 1 ankrPOL token vs. POL increases over time as staking rewards accumulate inside the token. The ankrPOL also offers instant liquidity for your staked POL, enabling you to connect ankrPOL with DeFi platforms and earn several more layers of rewards. Learn more by visiting the docs.

Where can I stake Polygon (POL)?

You can stake POL with Ankr Staking for additional benefits over normal staking, such as instant liquidity and the option to participate in additional DEX and DeFi earning strategies. Additionally, Ankr Staking lets you stake POL on either Ethereum or Polygon.

How much can I earn from Polygon (POL) staking?

You can use the earnings calculator on this page to determine the possible rewards you could earn with your POL. This will give you a monthly and yearly estimation of your rewards.

How do I claim my Polygon (POL) staking rewards?

The ankrPOL token is a reward-bearing token, meaning its quantity stays the same from the moment of staking. Instead, it appreciates in value in relation to POL, so the redemption price of 1 ankrPOL will grow over time because of reward accumulation. This means you will be able to unstake or “redeem” for your ankrPOL more POL than you initially contributed.

What are the risks of staking Polygon (POL)?

The only risk for stakers is the chance they will miss out on rewards during any time a validator they staked with is slashed. Slashing is a protocol-level penalty associated with a validator failure if it validates an invalid transaction, attacks the network, or goes offline. The delegated staked POL will not be slashed — slashing impacts only the self-stake of the validator. Ankr only delegates to trusted and reputable validator nodes to avoid any validator that would act maliciously.

What is the minimum staking period for Polygon (POL)?

There is no minimum staking period, but if you choose to unstake, you may need to wait for the unbonding period depending on the blockchain. Ankr Staking gives users the option to stake POL on either the Ethereum or Polygon blockchain. If you choose to stake on Ethereum, you’ll receive your POL and rewards after the unbonding period of 80+ epochs; typically, it takes 3–4 days. If you stake on Polygon via the cross-chain staking pool, you’ll receive your POL and rewards instantly.

How much do you need to start staking Polygon (POL)?

If you choose to stake POL on Ethereum, the minimum amount is 1 POL. If you choose to stake POL on Polygon, there is no minimum amount.

Can I unstake my Polygon (POL) anytime?

Yes. You can unstake your POL at any time. If you choose to stake on Ethereum, you’ll receive your POL and rewards after the unbonding period of 80+ epochs; typically, this takes 3-4 days. If you stake on Polygon via the cross-chain staking pool, you’ll receive your POL and rewards instantly. In either case, you will continue to accumulate rewards until the moment you have received your POL.

What is the best wallet to stake Polygon (POL)?

You can use wallets supported on Ankr Staking such as MetaMask. MetaMask will be an easy option as you can follow our step-by-step instructions.

How can I check my Polygon (POL) staking rewards?

You can check your POL staking rewards at any time by connecting your wallet to Ankr Staking and navigating to the “My Portfolio” section to find analytics on your ankrPOL assets and rewards earned.

Are there any Polygon (POL) staking fees?

When staking on Ethereum, you will need to pay a gas fee (typically, 0.0005 ETH). When staking on Polygon, you may also need to pay a small dynamic fee. In either case, Ankr takes a 5% fee from the staking reward (this is already calculated into the staking rewards APY). Additionally, when unstaking on Ethereum, you will need to pay a fee of 0.025 ETH. When unstaking on Polygon, you will pay a fee of 0.5% from the unstaking amount.

What are the benefits of Polygon (POL) staking?

Ankr Staking users have unique benefits from Liquid Staking their POL. Not only will you be able to collect staking rewards, you can use ankrPOL tokens with supported DEXs and DeFi protocols for additional earning strategies or trading. See DeFi opportunities.

How many Polygon (POL) tokens do I need to stake?
