Staking in Tonkeeper

What is staking and why is it used?

Staking is a way to earn passive income by putting your crypto to work. Users delegate their assets to validators, who help keep the network running smoothly and securely.

Validators are selected based on the amount of crypto they stake as collateral. The larger a validator’s stake, the higher the rewards they can earn for confirming transactions on the blockchain. That’s why staking pools exist. They allow validators to combine funds from multiple users and stake them together. In this way, users contribute to the network and earn rewards in return.

What staking is available in Tonkeeper?

Tonkeeper offers liquid staking through Tonstakers.

Unlike traditional staking, liquid staking lets you stake your crypto without fully locking it up. Here’s how it works: when you stake TON in the Tonstakers pool, you receive a token called tsTON in return.

You can freely use tsTON — send it, swap it on a DEX, or hold it. It represents your share in the staking pool, and its value is backed by the TON staked in the pool. Over time, the value of tsTON gradually increases with each staking cycle.

You can find more details in the Tonstakers FAQ. :)

How to stake TON?

  1. Open Tonkeeper and tap 'Stake'.
  2. Enter an amount (minimum 1 TON) and confirm the transaction.
  3. Your staked coins will appear on the main screen in your token list. :)

📌 To make sure the transaction goes through, we recommend keeping at least 1.1 TON in your balance to cover network fees.

How to unstake TON?

  1. On the main screen, open the 'Staking' tab and tap 'Unstake'.
  2. Enter the amount and confirm the transaction.
  3. Your unstaking request will be processed after the current validation cycle ends, which takes about 18 hours in Tonstakers.

📌 To successfully unstake, make sure your wallet balance has at least 1.1 TON to cover network fees (most of this amount will be returned).

Staking is based on smart contracts by third perties. Tonkeeper is not responsible for staking expirience.
