ADA staking: Cardano delegation and exchange products
Yieldo compares the ADA products offered by the providers in the table. Its rate-based estimate is not a forecast of a particular Cardano stake pool’s block production.
Delegate ADA without transferring custody
Native Cardano delegation leaves ADA in your own wallet, available to spend. Rewards are paid in ADA and depend on the pool’s performance, fees and saturation. They are not a fixed daily interest payment. Cardano epochs last about five days; the first reward normally arrives after 15–20 days if the pool produces blocks. Subsequent rewards participate in delegation automatically.
Compare the cost and access to your ADA
Native delegation needs a transaction fee and, for a new stake credential, a refundable registration deposit. Reward withdrawals require an active voting delegation, which may be to a DRep, abstain or no confidence. An exchange instead controls the deposited ADA and sets its own reward and redemption terms: a flexible Earn balance is not the same as spendable ADA in your wallet.
