KTONWhat Is the Minimum Amount to Stake Gram on TON?
With KTON liquid staking the minimum stake is 1 Gram. Keep roughly 2.15 Gram in your wallet, because the wallet attaches about 1.15 Gram of network gas and the unused portion is refunded.
Why 2.15 Gram and not 1
The 1 Gram is the stake itself. The extra amount is network gas: your wallet attaches about 1.15 Gram to the staking transaction to cover the operations involved, and whatever is not used is refunded after the operation completes. So the stake can be exactly 1 Gram, but the wallet needs a little more than that to send it.
How the minimum differs between ways to stake
| Method | Minimum |
|---|---|
| Solo validating | Very high. You run a validator and put up a large stake. |
| Nominator pool | Lower, and it varies by pool and validator. |
| Liquid staking with KTON | Low: from 1 Gram. |
