1. What is MINA staking?
The native utility token for the Mina blockchain is called MINA. Mina employs a Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism in place of miners and a Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism to confirm transactions and uphold the security of the Mina blockchain. This indicates that users of the network can bet a specific amount of MINA to earn prizes for truthfully verifying transactions on Mina. Additionally, MINA holders have the option to vote for these validators by locking their tokens.
Voting for trustworthy and active validators on the network rewards MINA holders who lock and vote their tokens with extra MINA. Users that deposit MINA into their CoinList wallet can passively get more MINA because CoinList administers the locking and voting for those users.
2. How do I earn MINA staking rewards on CoinList?
By holding MINA in your CoinList Wallet after making a deposit or buying it, you can be eligible to collect staking incentives. You automatically opt into staking rewards once you deposit MINA into your CoinList Wallet. You don’t need to do anything in order to take part. Please be aware that MINA kept on CoinList Pro do not receive incentives for staking.
3. How much are MINA staking rewards?
Users who have MINA placed into their CoinList wallets are now expected to receive rewards from the MINA network at a rate of 16%. Please be aware that this return is not promised and could change. The anticipated reward accounts for CoinList’s fee as well as the proportion of deposited tokens that are still unstaked for liquidity needs.
4. What fees are charged for this staking service?
You will have your earned staking rewards deducted by a 15% charge. There will be no impact on your staked principal from the fee.
5. Do I have to buy my MINA on CoinList to earn staking
