TON Staking Guide

TON staking happens via a deployed contract and the CLI supports two types of contracts:

1. Single Nominator Pool: Only one nominator is alloweed
2. Nominator Pool: A few nominators are allowed

{% hint style="warning" %} It is important to know what type of validator you are staking to prior to running any command. {% endhint %}

Example Configuration

For your convinience we provided you with a reference configuration.

Staking Operations

Please note that unless you pass the --broadcast flag, your transaction will not be sent to the network.

Signing a transaction and broadcasting it are two separate actions. Therefore, having a signed transaction does not affect your account unless it is broadcast and processed by the network.

To delegate your funds (e.g., 1 TON), run a selected command based on the validator contract type:

chorus-one-staking ton tx delegate-nominator-pool 1 -c ./config.ton.json --broadcast
chorus-one-staking ton tx delegate-single-nominator-pool 1 -c ./config.ton.json --broadcast

To unstake 1 TON, run one of the respective commands below:

chorus-one-staking ton tx unstake-nominator-pool -c ./config.ton.json --broadcast
chorus-one-staking ton tx unstake-single-nominator-pool 1 -c ./config.ton.json --broadcast

{% hint style="info" %} The nominator pool contract doesn't allow partial unstaking. It is only possible to unstake the full amount. {% endhint %}

Please note, the CLI is interactive. It will prompt you before signing a transaction and broadcasting it, giving you time to review its contents.
