8874 Ada
Shared to Delegators
(+ Rewards)
Each epoch that STAY pool mints a block, I will share back 90% of 340 Ada fixed fee to all delegators, proportionally to the amount of Ada staked.

✅ I will keep sharing until 5M Ada staked. IOG and CF delegations are not counted.

✅ IOG and CF delegations are excluded from this program so you can get more Ada.

✅ My own pledge (30500 Ada) is excluded.

✅ You need to stake at least one epoch to be eligible for fee sharing. I will take a snapshot of your stake at the end of epoch to calculate fee sharing for the next epoch.

Your shared profits will be sent to you if it is at least 5 Ada. If lower than that, it will be counted towards the next epoch. 0.18 Ada transaction fee will be deducted from Ada sent.

Below is an example transaction in which I:
• Shared approximately 306 Ada fixed-fee to delegators.
• Send 34 Ada to another wallet for environmental donation.




888 USD + 375 Ada donated
To Fight Climate Change 🌱🌍
Each epoch that STAY pool mints a block, I will donate 10% of fixed and variable fees to an environmental fund.

✅ When 5M stake reached, I will donate 20% all fees.

✅ When 20M stake reached, I will donate 30% all fees.

Your rewards is not affected. It is taken from pool fees, not your rewards.

The current fund of choice is Clean Air Task Force. They are a 25 year old environmental organization with high reputation and transparency. They also have the most impact per dollar donated. On average, 1 metric ton of CO2 is reduced with every dollar donated.

I also donated Ada to Veritree to plant one tree for each Ada.

Here To STAY
in the long run
A total of more than 1100 pools have retired. If a pool you're staking with retire, you will lose out on rewards until you change pool.

STAY pool is committed to operating in the long run and will not retire, so you can just stake-and-forget. That's why my pool is named "Here To STAY".

Proud Cardano believer
since 2017
From the time I watched Charles Hoskinson's Cardano whiteboard video back in 2017, I knew this is the future of blockchain. Cardano's rigorous scientific approach is unmatched in the crypto space.

I believe blockchain is one of the most profound technological revolutions since the Internet, and Cardano is the one to give it mass adoption.

I'm thrilled to be on this journey with you.
Five Facts
about staking:
Your Ada stays in your wallet and is not locked. You can send it anywhere, anytime.
You do not risk your Ada by staking.
You will receive your first rewards after 4 epochs (20 days). After that, you will receive rewards every epoch.
Your rewards are automatically staked. You don't have to withdraw rewards.
Any Ada sent to your wallet is automatically staked.
Why 4 epochs
before first rewards?
This is the same for all pools. The Cardano protocol takes a snapshot of your Ada balance and pool choice at the beginning of each epoch, then apply that in the next epoch.

Epoch 0: You start staking with STAY pool.

Epoch 1: The Cardano protocol remembers your Ada balance and pool choice at the beginning of this epoch.
For example: 10,000 Ada, STAY pool.

Epoch 2: The Cardano protocol begins staking 10,000 Ada with STAY pool.

Epoch 3: Your rewards is calculated.

Epoch 4: Your rewards is paid to you.

Rewards calculations and payments are done automatically by the Cardano protocol. STAY pool has no influence on that.
You may ask...
Cardano vs Ada, what's the difference?
Cardano is the blockchain. Ada is the principal token (coin) in the Cardano blockchain.

They are named differently because Cardano supports multiple native tokens.
However, Ada is always needed for transactions.

What is Staking?
By staking you Ada, you contribute to the security of the Cardano system and earn rewards along the way.

Although not exactly, you can think of it as similar to earning interest from your money in your bank.

What is Delegating?
Staking Ada by yourself is a highly technical and complex task. It requires paying for servers, setting up core node and relay nodes, updating and monitoring them 24/7, and much more.

That's why you can just delegate your staking to a professional stake pool (like STAY pool ☺️).

What is Stake Pool?
Stake Pool is where many people stake together and share rewards proportionally to their Ada staked.

Pool Operator is the sleep-deprived one who takes all the hard work so everyone else can earn rewards.

What is Epoch?
An Epoch is 432000 seconds, or 5 days.

What is pool Fee?
Pool fee is one of the most misunderstood terms in Ada staking.
What it is:
· It is taken from the total rewards of the whole pool. That means it is divided among all delegators.
What it is not:
· It is not a "membership fee" that you have to pay.
· It is not taken from your Ada wallet.

What is pool Margin?
Pool margin is the percentage of the total rewards that a stake pool takes.

Example of pool Fee & Margin?
For example, let's say the total rewards of an epoch is 50000 Ada.
· First, we take the lowest possible fee, 340 Ada.
· Next, we take 1% from the remaining 49660 Ada, which is 496 Ada.
· The final 49163 Ada will be divided among all delegators, proportionally to their Ada staked.

How much Ada do I need to start staking?
You can start staking from 14 Ada, including deposit and transaction fee.

Do I have to pay to stake?
You'll need to deposit 2 Ada to start staking. This is the same for all pool.
STAY pool does not take this 2 Ada.

Do I have to send my Ada somewhere to stake?
No. Your Ada stays in your wallet.

Is my Ada locked?
No. You can send your Ada anywhere, anytime.

Do I have control of my Ada?
Yes. As long as you keep your Ada in a wallet and not on exchanges, you have full control of your Ada.

Do I need to stake my rewards?
No. All rewards is automatically staked.
