Welcome to the first of our monthly series of articles exploring the staking coins supported on Moonstake. This time, let’s dive into the Polkadot network and its DOT coin, the rising star of the crypto market that is now dubbed as the “Ethereum Killer”.


A Brief Introduction of Polkadot network and DOT

Polkadot is a sharding multi-chain protocol that facilitates the cross-chain transfer of any data or asset types. It unites an entire network of purpose-built blockchains, allowing them to operate seamlessly together at scale. It utilizes the cutting-edge sharding technology that allows for each chain in its network to be optimized for specific different use cases, instead of being forced to adapt a single model.

Originally launched in May 2020 as a Proof-of-Authority network where governance is controlled by a single “super-user” account, Polkadot quickly evolved to become a proof-of-stake (PoS) network in June 2020, allowing the chain to be secured by the decentralized community of validators and the token (DOT) holders. The blockchain is especially popular with developer communities thanks to its robust development system, Substrate, that allows for a wide variety of decentralized applications and systems. Thus, the strong development of the platform has attracted an equally large amount of investors to the DOT coin.

DOT began gaining huge momentum at the beginning of 2021. It rose from around $5 to over $40 in only a few months and have been successfully securing its spot in the top 10 ranking on Coinmarketcap. With a robust, active ecosystem and development community, many investors and industry experts have even claimed that Polkadot will soon usurp the throne of Ethereum, the world’s second most traded altcoin.

 

Polkadot’s Technical Milestones and Why Moonstake Supports DOT?

At Moonstake, we work to support the most demanded coins on the market. Here are some key milestones of Polkadot so far:

  • In October 2017, the Web3 Foundation conducted the Polkadot public sale and was able to raise over $145 million.
  • Following the smooth launch, Polkadot has been steadily increasing the size of its validator set. It began with 197 right after launch and is now increasing at an impressive rate of one every 24 hours.
  • With 274 validators, run by around 200 independent operators and backed by over 7,000 individual nominating accounts, Polkadot is arguably the most decentralized high-value (and therefore secure) network in existence.
  • At the beginning of 2021, Polkadot (DOT) increased to rank 6th among other strong competitors by 8.5 Billion market cap and the price of $9.44.
  •  Currently, DOT’s price is around $40 and it has been stably sitting at rank #6 on Coinmarketcap.

We can see that DOT is a high-demand coin and its Polkadot network is an esteemed blockchain project with active, constant development and support both from its creators and lively developer community. This makes DOT a great and strategic addition to the lineup of PoS coins available on Moonstake, and Moonstake has been supporting DOT staking since January 2021.

 

How does DOT staking work?

As with any PoS coin, you can stake your idle DOT assets to earn passive income. Staking with Polkadot is to participate in the network’s operations (validating blocks) by becoming a nominator who chooses the network’s validators.

Polkadot has validator pools consisting of an elected validator together with the nominators backing it. As a nominator, you can nominate one or more validator candidates (up to 16) that you trust to help you earn rewards in DOT. Each validator pool in Polkadot consists of 1 validator and their nominators, so this means you can be a nominator in maximum 16 pools. Validator pools are paid the same regardless of stake level, so pools with less stake will generally pay more to nominators per-DOT than pools with more stake. In Polkadot, each validator candidate is free to name their desired commission fee (as a percentage of rewards) to cover operational costs.

If more than 128 nominators nominate the same validator, it is “oversubscribed”, and only the top 128 staked nominators (ranked by the amount of stake) are paid rewards. If your stake is in place 129 or higher, you will not receive staking rewards.

 

How to get Rewards of DOT staking

The current APY for DOT staking on Polkadot is around 13.32%. To receive the staking rewards, you must manually claim your rewards using the function inside the staking tab. Staking rewards are kept available for 84 days only. Please be aware that If you do not claim your staking rewards by this time, then you will not be able to claim them and some of your staking rewards will be lost.

 

How DOT unstaking works

You must unstake when sending a DOT during staking. However, for 28 days after the unstake, it will be in the “cancellation request” state and will be locked. After the 28-day lock period has expired, you can withdraw your DOT. There are no staking rewards during the lock period.

 

Here’s a simple 4-step process to stake DOT on Moonstake Wallet:

  1. Register your mobile Moonstake wallet (https://wallet.moonstake.io) 
  2. Add DOT with “Add New Asset”
  3. Transfer DOT to Moonstake web wallet
  4. Click the “Stake Now” button (*You need to have at least 1 DOT to start staking for the first time.

Check out our full official manual on how to use DOT on Moonstake.

Hope you enjoy the first of our monthly series exploring the PoS coins supported by Moonstake. Tune in next month for our feature article on Orbs!

Today, Moonstake is proud to announce the entry into the DeFi market together with Muse.Finance.

The Staking and DeFi Boom in 2020, Top Staking Provider Moonstake Joins The DeFi Space

In January, 2021, Moonstake officially announced its entry to the DeFi sector. Today, with over 800 million USD in total staking assets, Moonstake is the top 8 biggest staking provider in the world. In less than one year since launch, Moonstake achieved rapid growth in both product development and a strong positioning in the market. Moving towards the DeFi sector, Moonstake welcomes applications from DeFi products looking to connect to its powerful staking network.

Though the concept was almost unknown back in 2019, the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem has experienced an explosive growth in 2020. According to DeFi Pulse, while it took almost two years for DeFi deposits to reach USD 1 Billion in Total Locked Value (TVL) as of Q4 2019, it took less than six months (March to July 2020) for DeFi TVL to spike from ~USD 550 million to ~USD 4 billion (~727% increase). Today, the DeFi TVL sits at $42.6 billion.

As of 29 March 2021, the market cap of all Proof-of-Stake (PoS) protocols is $450 billion and the total value locked in staking is $127.66 billion. In August 2020 when interest in DeFi was rapidly increasing, it was forecasted it should take from 3 to 5 years for the value of staked assets to surpass $100 billion due to increasing adoption of PoS grows, but it was achieved within only a year.


What is Muse.Finance and How Does It Fit into The Moonstake Ecosystem?

Muse.Finance is a Decentralized Platform where crypto users can receive staking rewards while gaining interests of lending through wrapped assets, and at the same time participating in the yield farming. Its ecosystem, which consists of Muse Swap, Muse Lending, and Muse Wrap, enables a liquid PoS platform that integrates the ERC-20 DeFi Ecosystem with Ethereum 2.0, starting from Cardano and expanding to Polkadot, Solana, Oasis, Terra, Centrality, and more using advanced cross-chain technology.

Muse.Finance initially links non ERC-20 assets with the ERC-20 ecosystem, allowing owners of staked assets on platforms such as Cosmos, IRISnet, Cardano, etc. to participate in lending, liquidity mining, and yield farming, which eventually enables connecting other chains. The platform will also be highly scalable thanks to being linked to the staking pools operated by Moonstake. Having completed its PoC, Muse.Finance currently has a working MVP and along with its Roadmap, wrapper and swapping will be launched in May 2021, and the yield farming and the lending functionality will be added within this year. The concept paper of Muse.Finance is available here.

Muse.Finance is a project by Shogo Ishida, the Senior Advisor of Moonstake. He is also known as former CEO of QRC, the esteemed blockchain and RegTech firm that sponsored the world’s first Security Token Specification provides for the technical specification and cross-blockchain publication of security tokens, covering tokens issued on any distributed ledger system, independently facilitated and published by BSI, the UK National Standards Body.

Shogo Ishida, the Founder of Muse.Finance says: “Lending, liquidity mining, and yield farming are all high-demand applications of DeFi today. Muse.Finance has been developed to enable the community access to these valuable DeFi services within a robust ecosystem with world-class scalability thanks to integration with the Moonstake staking pools as official partners. After much hard work, we’re excited to finally show you the value of Muse.Finance this year. Please look forward to Muse.Finance’s major roadmap developments throughout this year.”

 

Mitsuru Tezuka, Founder of Moonstake says: “Moonstake is entering the DeFi market with Muse DeFi to facilitate and expand access to DeFi by working to resolve staking illiquidity. We will also be widely accepting applications from DeFi products that wish to connect to the Moonstake platform. As one of the top 10 global staking providers trusted by investors and wallet users across the globe, Moonstake’s connection with DeFi through Muse.finance will support the development and dissemination of high-quality DeFi products through our powerful network.”

Looking Ahead

The launch of Muse.Finance marks Moonstake’s first entry to the DeFi market with a unique cross-chain platform that enables people to participate in valuable applications of DeFi including lending, liquidity mining, and yield farming.

Muse.Finance will launch its first products in May, Wrapper and Swapping. Then, it will gradually reinforce its DeFi platform with Lending Platform and Yield Farming within this year. The roadmap is available here.

Moonstake entered into a strategic partnership with Centrality last August, bringing Centrality CEO Aaron McDonald on board as an advisor. In October, we held a joint webinar to help spread the latest information about Centrality, and in December, Moonstake became the first wallet in the world to support CENNZ and CPAY in their migration to the mainnet. In December, the Moonstake wallet became the first wallet in the world to support CENNZ and CPAY, which moved to the mainnet, and became the world’s first CENNZ staking provider on February 25 this year.

Moonstake started the staking business last year with the aim to create the largest staking network in Asia. Since then, we have developed the most user-friendly Web Wallet and Mobile Wallet (iOS / Android)   with support for over 2000 cryptocurrencies. After a full-scale operation launched in August 2020, Moonstake’s total staking assets has grown rapidly to reach $800 Million in just 6 months, allowing Moonstake to become one of the top 10 staking providers globally. After Cosmos, IRISnet, Ontology, Harmony, Tezos, Cardano, Qtum, Polkadot, and Quras, Centrality became the 10th available coin for staking on Moonstake Wallet.

Today, Moonstake announces its partnership with Escaroo, a keyless blockchain-based peer-to-peer escrow service that offers an advanced smart contract solution for high profile individual and commercial clients within the real-estate, aviation and marine space.

Through this strategic collaboration, Moonstake will help enable staking functionality for Escaroo escrow platform, providing its users a new way to control and earn with their cryptocurrencies. As a leading staking pool platform with a strong lineup of supported digital assets and hundreds of millions assets staked, Moonstake is thrilled to support yet another esteemed institution in the industry, accelerating the connection of staking to decentralized finance. Escaroo users will soon be able to earn passive income from staking within the Cardano and Tezos ecosystems.

With the goal to help people safely create and manage crypto transactions, Escaroo utilizes its proprietary, US-patented smart contracts to facilitate transactions where funds are only released when all parties are in agreement. This allows Escaroo users to maintain funds securely within a unique individually created smart contract that is irreversible once posted to the blockchain and can only be accessed by the parties involved. Transactions are hosted on a public blockchain so one, not even Escaroo, has the ability to access funds outside of the terms set by the parties involved, putting the control of funds back into the users hands.

Lawrence Lin, CEO of Moonstake comments on the partnership: “Investors, especially in the  crypto space, are always looking for security and profitability without compromising their own convenience. We are happy to help Escaroo enable staking on their esteemed escrow platform so that Escaroo users not only can enjoy secure transactions but also earn from their idle funds on the DeFi platform of their choice. With a wide selection of PoS coins and attractive yield rates from our high-quality staking pools, we are confident that users will be pleased with their staking experience on Escaroo powered by Moonstake. By partnering with an esteemed institution, Moonstake is going strong on our journey to accelerate the growth of staking.”

“Adding staking to our platform is a natural progression for Escaroo, as it empowers our clients to put their money to work for them. They can now earn a percentage on everything they stake, thus creating a passive income stream on their investments. Being able to partner with Moonstake to bring this vision to fruition was a no brainer. With over $800 Million in assets currently being staked, it is clear Moonstake understands what’s needed to succeed in this extremely competitive world of Decentralized Finance. We are excited to be at the forefront of this brave new world of finance with them”, said Frank Pira, Founder and CEO of Escaroo.
