• What is delegation? Is it the same as staking?

  Delegation is the process by which ADA holders delegate their funds to a stake pool. It allows ADA holders that do not have the skills or desire to run a node to participate in the network and be rewarded in proportion to the amount of stake delegated. Staking usually refers to to the global state of all staked resources (from pools and from delegations) and delegating usually is used when describing specific functionality related to how users perform delegation and how it’s accounted.Some readers

• When will I get my first rewards?

  Rewards are paid out later due to the Cardano delegation cycle. It takes three full epochs since joining a particular stake pool (15-20 days) to see your first rewards. For example, you've delegated in epoch n, then epochs n+1 to n+3 count as three full epochs and you'll get the first rewards at the beginning of epoch n+4. One epoch lasts 5 days.Few readers

• How to choose a stake pool?

  When selecting a stake pool, there are key factors to consider. One crucial aspect involves parameters like Return on Assets (ROA) and variable cost. ROA, representing estimated rewards over a year of ADA staking, relies on the stake pool's previous epoch's block count and the variable cost set by the operator. With each epoch's first block, the operator earns a fixed cost (min. 170 ADA) ensuring proper node operation and network setup. Beyond this fixed cost, operators can apply a **Few readers

• How do I delegate/stake my ADA?

  To stake on Yoroi, you need to have a Shelley-era (now called Standard in Yoroi) wallet. If you already have one with some ADA in it, you should simply go to the Delegation List, pick a stake pool, and confirm delegation with your password/hardware wallet. If your pool performs well, you'll get the first rewards after three epochs (15-20 days) have passed since you joined the pool. Take a look at the delegation cycle explanation below to learn about the delay.  ![Delegation_cycle.png](https://Few readers

• Do I miss rewards when changing pools?

  No. If you change delegation from Pool1 to Pool2, you still receive rewards from Pool1 until the reward schedule for Pool2 starts. If you’re changing to a different pool twice within an epoch, only the last change will be captured at the epoch snapshot.Few readers

• Are there any fees to delegate ADA?

  To use any blockchain network and Cardano as well, a small fee is charged to do a transaction. The fee amount depends on the size of the transaction. For more details follow this link. The amount is usually around 0.17 ADA. You will also pay a one-time deposit of 2 ADA for registering your staking key.
