Thanks to the innovation, APT holders will be able to delegate the authority to manage tokens to a trusted validator and receive rewards as an individual.
The project team noted that the initiative “brings benefits by allowing network participants to earn money without taking on the load of operating nodes.” Additionally, Aptos delegated staking “promotes self-custody, increased accessibility, and flexibility for all stakeholders in the ecosystem.”
Users can block APT directly in Aptos Explorer or choose from several partner services like Pontem Network or Nodes Guru.
“Delegated staking is a significant step forward in our mission to create a more efficient and secure decentralized network,” the developers said.
