FAQ
How do delegation and staking rewards compare on Flare?Show
Delegation to FTSO providers and staking with validators both let you earn on your FLR, but they behave differently and serve different purposes. Delegation rewards accurate price signaling and can usually be rebalanced more flexibly, while validator staking directly supports network security and often involves longer lockups or unbonding periods. When you compare options, it helps to look beyond headline APR and consider lockup length, the minimum stake required, and how often rewards are distributed.
This page simulates rewards for a chosen FLR amount side by side, using current reward rates, so you can see how delegation and staking differ in both absolute FLR terms and annualized yield. The goal is not to tell you which approach is “best” but to make trade-offs clear so you can choose the mix that matches your risk tolerance and time horizon.
