You're new to Gnosis Chain. You hold some GNO, and you want to help secure the network. Let's get started together!

Before You Start

Take a look at our comparison cards. We recommend reviewing them to help you find the option that suits you best.

Solo Staking

Full Control

Trustless

Higher Rewards

Technical Knowledge Required

Solo staking on Gnosis Chain sets the gold standard for staking. By solo staking, you earn full consensus and execution layer rewards, enhance network decentralization, and maintain complete control over your funds. Take the lead in supporting and securing the Gnosis Chain by choosing solo staking.

Pooled Staking

Easy to Manage

Professional Management

Reduced Risk of Penalties

Less Control

Staking as a Service is the process of transferring your GNO to a third party, like Chorus One or Gateway. These organizations handle the technical challenge of setting up and maintaining a server. Using publicly audited onchain contracts, they consolidate GNO from a wide variety of depositors and use this consolidated stake to secure the network.

Liquid Staking

Liquid staking providers allow anyone to stake without running a node themselves. It also gives stakers the opportunity to use their tokenized staked resources (osGNO) for yield farming, borrowing or compounding while still protecting the protocol. With liquid staking, your GNO will still generate staking yield, but at a lower rate than staking with home hardware.

Staking Options

You’re getting closer to finding the path that’s right for you. Now, take a look at the liquid staking and pooled staking options. If those don’t seem like a good fit, consider the intermediate level for solo staking.
