How to Stake SUI: A Step-by-Step Guide to Earning Rewards

You've learned about the SUI blockchain and its innovative, object-centric design. You understand that it's built for massive scale and that the SUI coin is the key to securing its network.

Now, it's time to move from understanding the technology to participating in it. Staking is the most direct way to support the SUI network while earning SUI staking rewards on your holdings.

This guide will walk you through exactly how to stake SUI, from acquiring the coin to delegating it to a validator.

A Quick Recap: Why Stake Your SUI?

When you stake your SUI, you are delegating your coins to a validator—one of the powerful nodes that processes transactions and secures the network. This act is crucial for the health and decentralization of the SUI blockchain.

In return for your contribution, the network rewards you with more SUI. It's a powerful way to generate passive income on your assets while supporting a project you believe in.

The 4 Steps to Staking SUI

The process is secure and straightforward. A key feature of staking on SUI is that it's "non-custodial," meaning your coins are never in the validator's possession; they are simply delegated and always remain under your control.

Step 1: Acquire SUI (Your Starting Point)Before you can stake, you need the SUI coin. The best way to start is by purchasing SUI on a secure, high-liquidity centralized exchange. Using a platform like BYDFi ensures you get a fair market price and low fees, giving you a strong foundation for your staking position.

Step 2: Set Up a SUI-Compatible WalletYou'll need a personal wallet to hold your SUI and interact with the network. These wallets give you full control over your assets. Some of the most popular and trusted wallets for the SUI ecosystem are:

• Sui Wallet: The official reference wallet developed by Mysten Labs.
• Suiet Wallet: A user-friendly and feature-rich community wallet.
• Ethos Wallet: A wallet known for its clean interface and human-readable transaction history.

When setting up your wallet, write down your secret recovery phrase and store it offline in a safe place. This is the master key to your funds.

Step 3: Transfer SUI from BYDFi to Your Wallet

Once your wallet is active, copy your public SUI address. Go to your BYDFi account, navigate to "Withdraw," select SUI, and paste your wallet address as the destination. Confirm the transaction and wait for the SUI to appear in your personal wallet.

Step 4: Choose a Validator and Delegate

This is the final step. Inside your SUI wallet, you will find a "Stake" or "Delegate" section.

• You will see a list of active validators
• Review the list. Look for validators with high uptime and a reasonable commission rate (the small fee they take from your rewards for their service).
• Select a validator and choose the amount of SUI you wish to stake.
• Confirm the transaction.

That's it! Your SUI is now staked and will begin earning rewards. You can monitor your earnings and manage your stake directly from your wallet.
