FAQ

A: https://github.com/crypto-com/chain-desktop-wallet/releases

A: Yes - absolutely! When staking / redelegating, you can select Croathlon as your validator. Follow the FAQ below on how to restake, or go to the Newbie guide!

A: Yep. Use the recovery key, you can use it across platforms.

A: Click on "Staking", "Delegate Funds", put in my validator crocncl1n34qvdcr78a3m760mjl5ejuwrjuqk0utpmw0kn in the validator address, choose and amount and hit Review. Easy!

A. Super easy! This instructions are for if you're staking for the first time - NOT redelegating (i.e. you're not already with another validator - this is new CRO in your wallet). For guidance on redelegating scroll down this page!

1. Click on the "Earn" button

2. Click on "Earn More"

3. Select CRO

4. Select amount. IMPORTANT: I'd suggest leaving 0.5 CRO in your wallet for future transaction fees. If you stake it all you won't be able to do anything! Then, hit Stake.

5. In the "To Validator" picklist, scroll to where you see Croathlon - look for the rockets :)

6. Click Confirm Validator, and then Confirm Stake

7. Rejoice!

A: No worries!

1. Load the desktop app

2. Go to Home,

3. Click on "Delegations" and click the Redelegate button.

4. You can move your funds with no loss of interest or additional fees once. If you want to do it again you have to wait for 28 days.

A: No worries!

1. Load the Defi mobile app

2. Click on Earn, and select the CRO asset at the top

3. Click on the three dots on the right of the Validator name, and select "Switch Validator"

4. Select the amount and click on Switch Validator

5. In the "To Validator" dropdown, pick Croathlon (look for the rockets!), and click on Confirm Switch Validator.

A: Yep. Use the recovery key, you can use it across platforms.

A: I have two suggestions of what you should consider.

1) Sustainability. Running a validator is not free - it is resource intense and you can't run it on a spare raspberry pi at home with a USB stick. So, sure - someone out there is promising 0% for life, but can they sustain it?

2) Look at their max fees and commission max change figures. If you're seeing an operator with a 50% max fees and a 50% commission max change figure, they can move from 0% commission to 50% commission in seconds. Unless you're checking your stats regularly, you could end up losing a lot of interest. So, there's the peace of mind element here!

A: Don't go buying 200+ CRO (minimum required) or swapping crypto. Just ping me on telegram / Reddit, I'm happy to transfer over a bit of gas to get you unstuck.

A: When you trigger redelegation for a specific amount, you have to wait 28 days to redelegate that fund again. You can also only have a maximum of 7 redelegations and unbondings in progress at any given moment in time.

A: Well. I can't exactly run away with all your money now, can I - this is blockchain! Plus, take a look at my self delegation - I'm in it myself. To put it even more simply, you're not trusting me - you're trusting the blockchain process, of which I'm just a contributor.

A: Err, not quite. Even if people put in £5000, and we settle at 20% interest, I only get £30 of the £1000 interest in a YEAR. That doesn't even cover electricity costs.

A: I believe in decentralising this platform. Plus I'm a geek and wanted to set up my own node! I love being part of this.
