How to Stake Grass (GRASS) with Solflare

This is a step-by-step guide on how to stake Grass with the Solflare wallet. With Solflare, you can send, receive, and stake $GRASS and other crypto tokens as well.

Grass is a network that empowers people to earn rewards simply by sharing their unused internet bandwidth, by turning it into a passive income. This approach allows individuals to regain control, benefiting directly from corporations that rely on additional bandwidth for tasks like local price checks, ad verification, and academic research. 

In this guide, we will show you how to set up a new wallet and how to stake $GRASS. If you already have configured your wallet and hold $GRASS tokens, skip the first part and head over to staking.

DISCLAIMER: This is not financial advice. Staking and cryptocurrency investment involve a certain degree of risk, and there is always the possibility of loss, including the loss of all staked digital assets. Additionally, delegators are at risk of slashing in case of security or liveness faults on some PoS protocols. We advise you to DYOR before choosing a validator.
