What is Oasis?

Oasis is a layer-1 blockchain designed to offer a scalable environment with embedded privacy at the core of its protocol. Its multi-layered architecture comprises a consensus layer and a ParaTime layer where anyone can develop and build their own Paratimes, which run and can process transactions in parallel, to meet the need of a specific application or use-case.

What is staking?

In a Proof-of-Stake blockchain such as Injective, staking consists of locking native tokens to earn the right to secure a chain, and to be rewarded while doing so.

With Oasis staking, users lock ROSE to fund a validator, which helps secure the chain by proposing new blocks and attesting other validators’ blocks, gaining a reward in the process.

Why should you stake your assets?

Staking generates one of the safest and most predictable ways to get rewarded in the crypto space. It is the most natural reward feature in crypto as the value originates from the blockchain native currency inflation and a share of transaction fees.

You can stake your ROSE as well as other (d)PoS cryptocurrencies to:
  • 1
    Put your treasury to work
  • 2
    Diversify and earn, while contributing to blockchains decentralization
  • 3
    Bring new opportunities by enabling your users to earn staking rewards

What are the rewards associated with staking ROSE?

As an incentive for helping to safeguard the network, you can earn up to 4.04% GRR* from your delegation on Kiln’s Oasis validator.

Stake Oasis FAQ

What does Proof-of Stake mean?

Proof-of-Stake (PoS) is a type of consensus mechanism used to validate cryptocurrency transactions. Through PoS, validators can contribute to the block production of a chain while keeping environmental concerns to a minimum, an increasingly large issue in Proof-of-Work.

By staking capital rather than energy, validators risk losing a portion of their value and future potential for staking by misbehaving while creating blocks. This incentivises collaboration and fair practices while validating information in a similar way that PoW has with incentives and punishments to curtail malicious activity while creating consensus.

What is the role of Oasis validators?

Oasis validators verify and add new transactions to the network through the blocks they produce, or attest other validators’ blocks. Validators get rewarded with ROSE tokens for securing the network and passing transactions.

How much can you earn by staking ROSE? When will I receive ROSE rewards?

ROSE staking APR is currently 4.04% at the time of writing this article. ROSE APR may be subject to change in the future. Rewards can be claimed through the ‘Claim’ button in the Rewards tab of your dashboard.

Does Oasis network have transaction and gas fees?

Yes Oasis has both transactions and gas fees. For most transactions, fees are less than $0.01 (paid with ROSE), even during high-traffic periods.

What are the risks associated with staking ROSE?

What is the Kiln ROSE delegation address?

Kiln’s Oasis validator address is “oasis1qqtmpsavs44vz8868p008uwjulfq03pcjswslutz”, make sure to delegate your ROSE to this address to stake with Kiln. Never send tokens to this address.

Do I maintain custody of my ROSE tokens? Is ROSE staking non-custodial?

When you delegate your ROSE token from your wallet (ideally a Ledger hardware wallet) to a validator such as Kiln to receive staking rewards, you keep full custody of your funds.

What is the lockup period to stake Oasis? When can I unstake and withdraw my ROSE?

There is a 14 days lockup period on Oasis. After unstaking ROSE, your tokens become transferable after 14 days.

What is the average block time on Oasis?

The average block time on Oasis is 5 sec, meaning a new block is produced every 5 seconds.

What is a Gross Reward Rate (GRR) and how is it different from a Net Reward Rate (NRR)?

In the context of Proof-of-Stake blockchains, the gross reward rate (GRR) refers to the total or gross amount of rewards earned from staking before deducting any fees or expenses. This is a reward rate that fluctuates with the operations of the protocol and the performance of validators, it is not set by Kiln. The net reward rate (NRR), on the other hand, takes into account the deductions or expenses, providing a measure of the actual rewards received after subtracting fees or costs.
