VET Staking – VeChain

How to stake VeChain (VET)

Do you want to earn VET Staking Rewards on your VeChain (VET)? Staking Vet is unique in that instead of giving you more VET, it will instead generate VeThor Token (VTHO). VET staking is simple, as all you need to do is hold it in your wallet. We will go over 1 exchange and 3 wallets that we recommend using to stake your VET.

Exchange

Staking on an exchange is the easiest way to stake a cryptocurrency because all you need to do is buy it and leave it in your exchange’s wallet. Unfortunately this also means that you don’t own your cryptocurrency and you risk losing it if your account is breached or if the website goes out of business without providing you with a seed phrase to recover your cryptocurrencies.

Binance

We recommend using Binance as the exchange of choice to stake VET. It currently provides 1-3% interest per year on your VET and rewards are distributed monthly.

  1. Buy VeChain or deposit it from another exchange/wallet to the address provided by Binance.

2. Rewards are distributed once a month. You can check the “Distribution History” page to see how much VTHO you’ve received. It will also appear in your Balance page.

Software Wallets

Software wallets are more recommended for holding your crypto because they are safer in them rather than holding them on an exchange. Generally, they will generate a seed phrase for you so that as long as you have this phrase, you will always have access to your cryptocurrencies, even if the software wallet you had them on originally is shut down, as long as the new software wallet you use supports the currency, you can restore your crypto balance onto the new software wallet. We will recommend 3 software wallets to stake your VET on.

Exodus

Exodus is a good general purpose software wallet that supports many cryptocurrencies and supports staking on quite a few of them as well. Exodus has a mobile app and a desktop version. Exodus currently provides 1.43% interest per year on your VET.

Desktop version:

  1. Go to https://www.exodus.com/ and download and install the desktop app (Windows, Mac, and Linux supported)
  2. Open the Exodus app, click the wallet icon, and select VeChain. You can search for it using the magnifying glass icon or just scrolling through the currencies until you reach it.

VeChain Sync

Final Thoughts

If you only care about convenience, we recommend keeping your VET on an exchange that gives you interest such as Binance because it is the easiest thing to do. With an exchange, all you need to do is buy VET and you will eventually start earning interest with no extra work. The downside of an exchange is security. If someone gets your account information, they will have access to ALL of your cryptocurrency on the exchange and you will likely lose all of it.

Software wallets are more recommended if you are willing to sacrifice some convenience for more security. You will be provided a seed phrase that can be used to restore your VET on any other VET wallet if the wallet it’s currently on shuts down.

With software wallets, we recommend the Exodus wallet if you value convenience because you can stake and hold many other cryptocurrencies on it. However, this convenience comes with the same drawbacks as an exchange where if someone manages to get onto your computer or mobile device and access your Exodus wallet, they can now do anything to all of your cryptocurrencies.

Between VeChainThor Wallet and VeChain Sync, we recommend VeChainThor if you don’t own a Ledger hardware wallet because it is easy to use and you are currently able to transfer your VTHO. If you do have a hardware wallet, we recommend VeChain Sync due to the added security and the high likelihood that you will be able to transfer out your VTHO in the future.
