Kyvo is your digital wallet for managing your crypto assets from one clean, secure interface. This update improves how you stake OPT. We’ve added helpful tips, explainer panels, and at-a-glance timing cards so anyone can stake without guesswork.
Staking lets you commit OPT to help secure the network while potentially earning rewards. While staked, tokens are locked for a period and may earn rewards based on validator node performance and protocol rules.
Choosing a validator node matters. Until now, the staking process often required outside research. With this update, Kyvo guides you every step of the way:
Why it’s a win: No more leaving the app to search for information. Everything you need to make informed staking choices is right inside Kyvo.
1. Open Kyvo → Stake
Banner tip: “Choose a validator with high uptime and low commission.”
2. Choose a Validator
Tap the info (i) icon to open validator metrics
Commission (%) — Tip: Lower commission generally means you keep more rewards.
Note: Some validators can change commission; check the current rate.
Uptime (%) — Tip: Prefer high, stable uptime. Warning: Low uptime may reduce rewards and increase the risk of penalties.
3. Enter Amount
Type how much OPT to stake (use Max if you like). Keep a small amount unstaked for fees.
4. Review Details
At-a-glance cards show:
Unstaking Wait Time (e.g., 21 days)
Rewards Paid Every (e.g., 1 day)
You’ll also see **“Staking involves risks. Learn more.”** 5. Confirm & Success
6. Tap Stake and see your confirmation screen when active.
Why it’s a win: New and experienced stakers alike get clarity before committing — with risks, timing, and validator details all visible.
Node owners can now see exactly where their OPT rewards come from — whether it’s network, engagement, community, staking, or validator activity. Each reward summary displays the full breakdown alongside the total earned.
Why it’s a win: Transparency builds confidence. Node owners get the clarity they’ve been asking for, with full visibility into how their rewards are generated.
This update also includes UI/UX refinements across the Network and Staking tabs, plus a series of bug fixes and stability improvements. From smoother profile management to more reliable notifications and login flows, everyday use of Kyvo is now more seamless.
Why it’s a win: These behind-the-scenes enhancements keep Kyvo fast, stable, and frustration-free.
Staking is now accessible, transparent, and confidently usable inside Kyvo. By making validator details clear and adding educational tips, this release reduces friction for new participants while helping experienced users stake smarter.
