FAQ

Tezos staking FAQ:

Can I convert XTZ to USD?
You can easily convert XTZ to USD by taking the price of Tezos multiplied by the number of XTZ tokens you hold. See our Tezos converter for details.
What is proof of stake?
Proof of Stake is a consensus algorithm that uses cryptocurrency tokens and network incentives to keep a blockchain secure. On a Proof of Stake blockchain like Tezos, XTZ tokens are staked in order to make network validators eligible to verify transactions and incentivize their honest behavior. The amount of XTZ a validator stakes is directly proportional to the likelihood that they will be chosen to validate the transaction, with some degree of randomness. Those chosen to verify a transaction on a Proof-of-Stake blockchain like Tezos are rewarded with XTZ.
Can I stake XTZ using my hardware wallet?
It is not possible to stake Tezos on Kraken using your hardware wallet. If you already have XTZ in a hardware wallet, you can easily transfer it to Kraken’s secure staking platform.
How do I run a Tezos validator node?
Running a Tezos validator node is a technically complex and costly process which requires a significant amount of resources. Because many feel the investment in running a Tezos node is too great, they often choose to stake their XTZ using an easy and secure service like Kraken.
What is the difference between on-chain and off-chain staking?
While similar in name and design on our client interface, on-chain and off-chain staking are separate features. On-chain staking utilizes assets “On-chain” in Proof-of-Stake protocols such as Tezos. Off-chain staking utilizes assets “Off-chain” (as further described in our Terms of Service). You can view your eligibility for Off-chain staking here.
