The time it takes for your crypto to become staked, also known as the "bonding" period, varies depending on the blockchain network. Some networks activate staking within a matter of hours, while others may take several days to weeks. During this bonding period, your assets are committed to the staking process but may not yet be earning rewards.
Please Note
- While your crypto is in this staking activation period, they are not tradable.
- A staking request cannot be canceled once the crypto service provider submits your request to the blockchain.
- Your crypto cannot be unstaked until it completes the staking activation period.
- To trade the staked crypto, you will first need to unstake your position, and wait for the unstaking period to complete.
