Staking NEAR
- Go to the Staking tab;
- Click "Stake my tokens";
- Choose your validator. There are many considerations to choosing a validator, some of which include the cost of delegation (a percentage of your rewards), the reliability of the validator (check https://near-staking.com to learn more), and the current total stake size;
- Click "Stake With Validator";
- Enter the amount to stake;
- Click "Submit Stake" and authorize the transactions. You may need to authorize several transactions if you are staking from a lockup.
