Introduction
STARTS staking allows users to delegate their STARS tokens to validators who secure the Stargaze network, earning rewards in return. By staking, participants contribute to the network’s security and decentralisation while receiving staking yields. This guide will walk you through the step-by-step process of staking your STARS tokens on Stargaze, from connecting your wallet to selecting a validator and viewing your rewards.
Buy STARS Token
To stake STARS you’ll first need to purchase OSMO tokens. A straightforward way to acquire OSMO is through our Binance link, where you’ll receive a $600 USD welcome offer. Navigate to the “Markets” section and search for OSMO. Once you’ve located the OSMO pair, purchase the amount you desire.

After buying OSMO, transfer it off the exchange by following these steps:
- Navigate to the “Wallet” section in Binance.
- Select “Withdraw” and choose OSMO as the token.
- Enter your OSMO wallet address (you can find it within your wallet once connected to the OSMO portal).
- Set the withdrawal amount and confirm the transaction.
Now that your OSMO tokens are safely transferred, exchange them to STARS and you’re ready to start staking.
Onramp options
If you are not a Binance user, don’t worry – there are plenty of other ways to get OSMO in your wallet.
Transak Onramp
You can head to Transak – a payments institution allowing easy and fast fiat-to-crypto conversion. Access https://transak.com/, where you will be able to choose your desired amount and exchange currency.
Afterwards, input your Osmosis-supported wallet address and log in with your email to verify your information.
Once the verification and login are done, you will be able to complete the transaction via methods like ApplePay, Bank Transfer and others.
You can also use alternative methods such as Kaido – through which you can purchase USDC stablecoin on Osmosis. The steps are similar to Transak:
- Set up your account and pass the Know Your Customer (KYC) verification
- Choose the desired amount and currency for exchange (Make sure to choose USDC on Osmosis)
- Enter your Osmosis wallet address
- Confirm & pay with traditional payment methods like Bank Transfer and GooglePay
Staking STARS from Simply’s Dashboard
Access the Landing Page
First, navigate to our landing page at simplystaking.com and hit the “Stake” button below the Berachain banner.
Choose The Network & Connect the Wallet
After you choose “Stake”, you will be directed to our multi-chain staking dashboard, where you can select your desired network (in this case STARS) and connect your pre-funded wallet by clicking “Connect Wallet”.
You should be presented with the choice of wallets, after which you should approve the connection between your wallet and the staking interface. The described step is shown below:
Time to stake
After you are connected, you will see an intuitive dashboard covering how much STARS is under your control called “Total”, the amount of STARS you can access under the “Available” section, as well as “Staked” – showing the amount of STARS you have already staked with us. Last but not least, the “Claimable” box is where your rewards are accrued which you can withdraw at any time.
The next step is to hit the “Delegate” button and choose the amount of STARS you want to delegate to us, just like in the picture below.
Finally, click “Approve” and relax, your STARS now joins thousands of other assets, all securely managed by Simply for years with zero downtime!
Staking STARS from the KEPLR Wallet
Accessing Keplr
To stake directly from your Keplr wallet, access the Keplr dashboard and navigate to the “Stake” section.
In this section, Choose STARS from the assets drop-down list.
Afterwards, choose a validator, hopefully, it will be us – “Simply Staking”
Choosing Amount & Staking
Once you choose the validator, the staking module will pop up on your right-hand side. Click “Stake” to choose the amount you want to delegate.
Once you click “Stake” choose the number of STARS you want to stake under the “Amount to Stake” box and hit “Stake” again!
Approve and Check
As usual, approve your transaction from your wallet to finalise the staking process!
After approval, you can see the stakeable value of your STARS as well as the amount you have staked under the “Total Available Value” & “Total Staking Value” respectively.
Moving Funds to a Ledger Wallet
If you ever wish to unstake your STARS and store it securely, you can easily transfer your assets to a Ledger wallet. Simply follow the unstaking process and move your tokens to Ledger for safe offline storage!
