Native Staking Guide

Stake STRK or BTC wrapper tokens directly to Starknet delegation pools.

How It Works

Deposit: Your tokens are delegated to a Starknet validator pool
Earn: Rewards accrue in STRK (regardless of staked asset)
Claim or Compound: Claim rewards (5% fee) or restake at 0% fee
Withdraw: Request withdrawal, wait 7 days, then complete

Staking

Connect your wallet (Argent X or Braavos)
Navigate to Stake page
Select Native mode
Choose your asset (STRK, wBTC, tBTC, LBTC, sBTC)
Enter amount
Click Stake -- signs a multicall (approve + enter_pool)

Your tokens are now earning STRK rewards.

Claiming Rewards

Two options:

Option	Fee	What Happens
Claim	5%	STRK rewards sent to your wallet
Restake	0%	STRK rewards added to your STRK staking position

Restaking compounds your returns with no fees.

Withdrawing

Starknet native staking requires a 7-day unbonding period:

Click Unstake and enter amount
Your request joins the current withdrawal epoch (24h batch window)
The epoch closes and starts 7-day unbonding
After unbonding, click Complete Withdrawal to receive tokens

Epoch System

Multiple users' withdrawals are batched into epochs:

Epoch opens (24h window)
  User A: 100 STRK
  User B: 50 STRK
  Total: 150 STRK
    |
Epoch closes --> Single pool exit_intent(150 STRK)
    |
7 days unbonding
    |
Epoch claimable --> Users claim their share

Maximum wait: 8 days (24h collection + 7 days unbonding).
