Comment gagner du rendement sur

Comme IOTA EVM n'a pas de staking natif, la façon de gagner sur est via les pools DeFi — en prêtant, fournissant de la liquidité, ou en wrappant sur une chaîne avec staking. DeFi ajoute des risques de smart contract et (pour LP) d'impermanent loss.

Frequently asked

What people ask about IOTA EVM staking

What does staking on IOTA EVM mean?

Staking on IOTA EVM means locking your with a validator that helps run the network. In return, the network pays you a share of newly created tokens — similar to how a savings account pays interest, but the rate is set by the protocol, not a bank.

How much can I earn?

Right now the top validators on IOTA EVM pay varies by validator per year, after their commission. The rate moves with the chain's inflation schedule and how much of the supply is staked overall.

Is staking safe?

Your tokens stay in your wallet — you never hand them over. The two real risks are slashing (the network can shrink your balance if your validator misbehaves, which is rare) and lock-up (you can't sell instantly during the unbonding period). Pick a validator with a track record and you sidestep most of the risk.

Can I unstake whenever I want?

Yes, but unstaking is not instant. Most chains have an unbonding period of a few days to a few weeks during which you don't earn rewards and can't sell. Liquid-staking tokens (like stETH for Ethereum) sidestep this by giving you a tradeable receipt token.

What wallet do I need?

Any non-custodial wallet that supports IOTA EVM works — Phantom or Solflare for Solana, Keplr for Cosmos chains, MetaMask for Ethereum and EVM chains, Yoroi or Eternl for Cardano. Connect, choose a validator, click delegate. The whole flow takes a couple of minutes.
