LUKSO Staking: Staking LYX on the LUKSO Mainnet
A short and simple guide for staking LYX on LUKSO Mainnet

Staking LYX on the LUKSO Mainnet
Setting Up for Staking
Staking LYX on the LUKSO Mainnet involves setting up a validator node. For technical individuals, this might involve several steps using the LUKSO CLI or Docker setups. However, if you belong to the non-technical majority, the optimal approach would be waiting for the release of Dappnode integration or staking services.
Does Larger Stakes Mean Greater Returns?
Staking more than 32 LYX does not guarantee higher returns. Each validator key simply requires 32 LYX to be activated.
APY for Staking
With staking, your Annual Percentage Yield (APY) includes the funds in both the withdrawal and the fee recipient addresses. However, the rate of return can change depending on the network usage, total number of validators, or consensus changes.
Running a Slasher Node
Running a slasher node can offer some benefits, albeit not major. It's primarily a supportive role in maintaining network security.
Validator Rewards and Taxes
The tax implications on validator rewards differ based on your regional regulations. Ensure to consult with a local tax professional for accurate guidance.
Withdrawing Staking Rewards
You can withdraw your staking rewards if you've set up your withdrawal credentials correctly. The withdrawal process can be carried out either partially, which allows you to spend your rewards immediately, or entirely, which involves exiting the network.
Configuring Withdrawal Credentials
Withdrawal credentials can be set using the LUKSO Keygen CLI. Once set, these credentials can't be updated. So, ensure you keep your private key, as it can't be replaced.
Consequences of Being Offline
Being offline comes with its share of penalties. The longer you're offline, the more LYX you might lose.
In Conclusion
Staking LYX on the LUKSO mainnet can be rewarding. But like every investment, it requires careful consideration and an understanding of the mechanics at work. Check out the LUKSO Docs, and happy staking!
