The following is a tutorial on Wormhole staking:
1. Go to the staking website: Visit the [Wormhole governance website](https://tally.xyz/gov/wormhole).
2. Click on Governance Rights: After entering the website, click on the “Governance Rights” option.
3. Click Start: On the Governance Rights page, click the “Start” button.
4. Choose the delegation method: You can choose to delegate governance rights to an institution or yourself. It is recommended to choose "self".
5. Cross-chain operation: Cross-chain $W on the Sol chain to the Base chain. Follow the prompts to transfer W from the Sol chain to the Base chain.
6. Confirm the pledge: Confirm the pledge operation on the Base chain. This process does not involve a lock-up period, and the pledged coins remain in your wallet.
Follow the above steps to complete Wormhole staking. Since there is no lock-up period for W staking, your staked coins are always in your wallet.
Risk Warning: Short-term traders should not participate in governance and any staking.
