Staking Tab
To view the Staking tab, go to io.net > IO Worker > Staking. The Staking tab displays:

How to Stake
Connect Your Crypto Wallet
To stake on IO, you need to connect your crypto wallet.
-
Go to io.net > IO Worker > Staking tab.
-
Follow the steps in Rewards and Wallets to connect your wallet.
Staking above the minimum required stake does not increase block rewards.
Stake $IO
Once you’ve connected your wallet, you can stake $IO to your device. After you connect your device to our network, you must stake to the device.
To view your devices that have no stake or only a stake from the device owner, click the Solo Staked Devices tab. The screenshot below shows a list of devices, indicating whether they have no stake, or just the owner’s stake.
Before making a co-staking offer, a full stake must be created for your device.
Stake your tokens
-
Locate your device and click Stake in the Staking Actions column.
-
In the pop-up window, enter the required $IO amount to stake your device, then click Stake. Any subsequent solo staking attempts on the same worker must use the wallet that was initially used for the device’s stake.
14-Day Cooldown Period
The 14-day cooldown period is important when unstaking your funds. Here's how it works:
- You can unstake at any time, but there is a 14-day cooldown period before the funds can be fully withdrawn.
- Funds in cooldown are not counted toward staking requirements.
- During the cooldown, your funds remain locked and cannot be withdrawn until the process is complete.
During the cooldown period, your funds do not contribute to staking rewards. You will only be able to access your funds after the 14-day period ends.
