Information on MINA Staking

1. What is MINA staking?

MINA is the native utility token for the Mina blockchain. Instead of using miners and a Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism to verify transactions and maintain the integrity of the Mina blockchain, Mina uses a Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism. This means that network participants are able to stake a certain amount of MINA for the right to honestly verify transactions on Mina and receive rewards for doing so. Additionally, MINA owners are able to lock their tokens and vote for these network participants, known as validators. MINA holders that lock and vote their tokens receive additional MINA as a reward for voting for honest and active validators on the network. CoinList manages the locking and voting for users who deposit MINA into their CoinList wallet so they can passively receive additional MINA. 


2. How do I earn MINA staking rewards on CoinList?

When you deposit or purchase MINA on CoinList, you may be eligible to receive staking rewards by keeping MINA in your CoinList Wallet. Once you deposit MINA into your CoinList Wallet, you are automatically opted into staking rewards. There is no action on your end required to participate. Please note that MINA held on CoinList Pro do not earn staking rewards.

You can find the most current staking reward amount on the Staking page (https://coinlist.co/staking) of your account.

What is staking?

Some crypto networks, like Bitcoin, use a Proof of Work (PoW) consensus mechanism where miners validate transactions by solving difficult math problems, other networks use a consensus mechanism known as Proof of Stake (PoS). In PoW networks, miners maintain consensus and secure the network, while PoS networks rely on participants known as validators to perform the same work. 


Validators confirm transactions and maintain consensus on the network to maintain the integrity and security of the blockchain they’re validating. To ensure that validators are acting honestly, PoS networks require validators to stake a minimum amount of tokens native to that network. This stake can be aggregated from many users, not just the validator, and essentially acts as a security deposit – if a validator is confirming invalid transactions, then validators will lose part of the capital they staked. As compensation for their work and for the opportunity cost of capital, validators earn network rewards for their work. These rewards can be shared among their community for users who have provided additional stake. 


Most PoS networks have different and unique consensus mechanisms and economic models. We recommend conducting your own research on each network before participating in any staking program. 


Is there a fee associated with staking on CoinList?

CoinList does not charge users for staking on CoinList, but we do take a commission fee on staking rewards paid out to our users. This commission may vary between assets. The reward rate displayed for the asset reflects this commission.
