Stake to storage providers to earn in the Cloud Economy. Help secure the Züs network by delegating tokens to providers, receiving revenue from cloud storage usage, and helping providers earn more.

Staking in the Cloud Economy

Stake ZCN Tokens: Navigate to "Stake´" to stake ZCN and earn in the cloud storage economy.

Selection Process: Choose storage providers (miners, sharders, and blobbers) based on performance metrics like stored data, capacity, quality score, and service fee.

Revenue Stream: Earn consistent income from the Züs cloud storage economy. How to Stake? Check out how to Stake, Claim Rewards, and Unstake

The Züs Ecosystem

  • Miners: Responsible for processing transactions and maintaining blockchain integrity.

  • Sharders: Manage data indices, enabling efficient data retrieval.

  • Blobbers: Offer data storage services, rewarded based on storage quality and duration.

Important Notes:

Locked Tokens: When you stake a blobber, your tokens might get locked. This is because ZCN tokens are locked on the Blobber proportionally to their used capacity*write price. If there are not enough tokens to cover the locked amount, your tokens will be closed until the storage contract is ended on the side of the client who bought the storage.

No partial unlock: You can only remove the total stake amount. It is not possible to remove a partial stake amount. Tokens might get locked: ZCN tokens are inherently locked when data is stored on a Blobber as collateral for data security. If used storage is high, relative to its write price and stake amount, tokens will be locked until the storage contract period has ended (storage allocations are typically one year but can be renewed anytime). You will continue receiving rewards while it is locked.

Pending Rewards: Even if you have pending rewards, you will receive them when Unlocking your stake.

Staking in the Cloud Economy

  • Stake ZCN Tokens: Users can stake ZCN tokens to participate in the cloud storage market.

  • Selection Process: Choose storage providers (Miner, Sharders, and Blobbers) based on performance metrics like stored data, capacity, quality score, and service fee.

  • Revenue Stream: Earn consistent income from the cloud storage business.

Providers Available for Staking

  • Miners: Responsible for processing transactions and maintaining blockchain integrity.

  • Sharders: Manage data indices, enabling efficient data retrieval.

  • Blobbers: Offer data storage services, rewarded based on storage quality and duration.

Locked token Risks

When staking to Blobbers, your tokens might get locked as other users store data on the service provider. Calculate the locked amount with the formula (GB write price/year * GB allocated). For example, if 100 GB is allocated to a server at 1 ZCN / GB per year, 100 ZCN must stay locked.
