❄️ Cold Staking

Cold Staking ❄️ (Recommended): The easiest and safest way for long-term holders. You can delegate your coins with just a few clicks using MyPIVXWallet. This way, your wallet does not need to stay online, while still earning rewards.

Cold Staking Thesis

Cold staking is one of the clearest onboarding stories in PIVX. It keeps the setup closer to normal wallet usage, reduces the need for a permanently exposed hot wallet, and still turns holdings into active network participation. That makes it the easier reward narrative for regular users.

🔥 Hot Staking

Hot Staking 🔥: Your wallet must stay online and unlocked to earn rewards.

⚙️ Requirements for 🔥 HOT Staking

  • At least 1 PIVX in your wallet (more coins = higher probability to earn rewards).
  • Your wallet must be unlocked and online 24/7 (unless cold staking).
  • A stable internet connection is required.
  • You should regularly update your wallet software.
