<p></p><h2 id="tldr"><strong>TL;DR</strong></h2><p>Staking is no longer just about passive rewards. With the right infrastructure partner, it’s a full-stack business model. P2P.org empowers institutions to:</p><ul><li>Launch white-label staking services</li><li>Capture MEV and restaking rewards</li><li>Build long-term staking brands and analytics businesses</li></ul><p></p><h2 id="modern-staking-is-a-business-model"><strong>Modern Staking Is a Business Model</strong></h2><p>Staking has evolved. Once seen as a passive income mechanism for token holders, it has transformed into a strategic revenue channel for institutions, wallets, and custodians. With innovations like MEV, restaking, and LRTs, staking is now central to crypto-native financial infrastructure.</p><p>Question is, are you making the most out of your staking strategies? Too often, businesses settle for surface-level network rewards without tapping into the deeper potential staking offers.</p><p>With the right infrastructure partner, staking can do far more than simply earn passive income. Institutions are now widely focusing on diverse staking operations to provide a robust, strategic revenue engine. Whether it's accessing new streams like MEV or integrating restaking, the full spectrum of staking opportunities is unlocked when you work with a platform designed for scale, flexibility, and reliability.</p><p>In this guide, we break down seven powerful revenue-generating strategies that go beyond traditional staking rewards, and show how P2P.org helps power each one.</p><p></p><h2 id="1-validator-rewards-the-classic-model"><strong>1. Validator Rewards (the Classic Model)</strong></h2><p>At its core, staking provides token rewards to validators for securing and maintaining blockchain networks. This remains the most direct way to earn network rewards, but maximizing it requires infrastructure that minimizes downtime, latency, and missed attestations.</p><p><strong>P2P.org’s Advantage</strong><br>Our infrastructure has maintained a long-standing >99,9% uptime across all supported networks. Our engineering team fine-tunes validators per network to reduce latency, while our monitoring stack ensures validator performance is never compromised. We take on the risk, so our partners don’t have to.</p><p>This technical uptime translates into peace of mind for staking businesses that need to scale without infrastructure concerns that might otherwise necessitate longer risk assessment processes.</p><div class="kg-card kg-button-card kg-align-center"><a href="https://www.p2p.org/networks?ref=p2p.org" class="kg-btn kg-btn-accent">Explore our networks</a></div><p></p><h2 id="2-commission-based-white-label-staking"><strong>2. Commission-Based White-Label Staking</strong></h2><p>Monetize user activity directly by offering staking services under your own brand. With P2P.org’s white-label staking API, wallets and custodians can introduce staking functionality in-app, set user-facing commissions, and unlock a recurring revenue model. </p><p>When looking at implementation of this, Ethereum staking and Solana staking are some of the most actively integrated networks by wallets and exchanges today. Ethereum has become a cornerstone of institutional staking strategies post-Merge, while Solana offers compelling staking incentives and high-speed UX. This makes both ideal for white-labeled in-app staking experiences</p><p><strong>How P2P.org Delivers</strong><br>We offer full branding flexibility, seamless integration, and direct payout options. Our partners can launch staking in under two weeks with enterprise-grade security baked in.</p><p>White-label staking turns staking into a product line that requires zero in-house infrastructure and still earns long-term commissions. Our team supports partners from integration through to UX best practices.</p><p>Key to <a href="http://p2p.org/?ref=p2p.org"><u>P2P.org</u></a>’s offering in this space is our Unified API. The Unified API provides a standardized platform to manage staking, transaction broadcasting, and unstaking across multiple blockchain networks, providing a truly multi-chain solution.</p><div class="kg-card kg-button-card kg-align-center"><a href="https://www.p2p.org/products/api?ref=p2p.org" class="kg-btn kg-btn-accent">Discover the Unified API</a></div><p></p><h2 id="3-restaking"><strong>3. Restaking </strong></h2><p>Restaking protocols like EigenLayer enable capital efficiency by allowing the same staked assets to secure additional services. This layered approach to staking opens up new dimensions of opportunity, particularly with restaking protocols like EigenLayer and emerging players such as Symbiotic, which are expanding the design space for validator services and modular security.</p><p><strong>How P2P.org Supports It</strong><br>We're actively integrating with restaking protocols to ensure our validators can support these advanced setups. Our internal slashing protection and policy management ensure that restaked assets maintain integrity across chains and services.</p><p>As restaking ecosystems mature, institutions will need a partner who can navigate evolving risk vectors and infrastructure demands. P2P.org is engineering restaking-native systems to support these high-efficiency, high-impact reward models.</p><p></p><h2 id="4-mev-and-order-flow-revenue"><strong>4. MEV and Order Flow Revenue </strong></h2><p>Maximal Extractable Value (MEV) is becoming one of the largest untapped reward sources for professional validators. By leveraging this technology and working with trusted builder relays, validators can increase returns without affecting base staking operations.</p><p><strong>How P2P.org Enables It</strong><br>Our infrastructure includes MEV-ready architecture with secure relay integration and real-time risk monitoring. We help partners capture MEV safely and compliantly, turning order flow into a new revenue stream.</p><p>By managing MEV at the protocol level and incorporating pre-configured relay logic, P2P.org helps staking partners unlock next-level economics that many still miss.</p><p></p><h2 id="5-tokenized-staking-lsts-lrts"><strong>5. Tokenized Staking (LSTs + LRTs) </strong></h2><p>Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs) and Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs) allow for staked positions to remain liquid. This opens doors for DeFi participation, collateralization, and secondary market trading.</p><p><strong>How P2P.org Adds Value</strong><br>We provide the foundational infrastructure behind tokenized staking initiatives. Whether you're launching your own LST product or integrating one, our infrastructure ensures validator stability, performance, and compliance support.</p><p>The future of composable staking requires the ability to have one asset across multiple touchpoints with constant performance. Institutions looking to enter the LST and LRT arena need a validator partner equipped to handle network complexity, slashing mitigation, and real-time responsiveness.</p><p></p><h2 id="6-validator-reputation-governance-influence"><strong>6. Validator Reputation & Governance Influence </strong></h2><p>As a validator grows in prominence, its role in governance expands. From helping shape protocol direction to influencing proposals, validator reputation becomes a brand asset and a political tool.</p><p><strong>How P2P.org Leverages It</strong><br>We actively participate in governance discussions across almost every proof of stake protocol. By aligning with us, partners gain visibility and influence in top-tier ecosystems. Our reports and governance insights are made available to strategic partners.</p><p>This influence translates to a stronger strategic position, both for internal growth and public-facing credibility. Validator reputation is earned through consistency, transparency, and participation. We help our partners build it.</p><p></p><h2 id="7-data-monetization-analytics"><strong>7. Data Monetization & Analytics </strong></h2><p>The operational data generated through validator performance and network behavior is a valuable asset. Institutional users increasingly demand transparent insights and performance analytics.</p><p><strong>How P2P.org Empowers It</strong><br>We offer real-time dashboards, API-based analytics, and customizable reporting for our partners. These tools not only help you monitor performance but can be productized into institutional offerings or operational KPIs.</p><p>We turn complex metrics into usable tools. For clients managing portfolio-level staking, these insights are critical for both internal strategy and external reporting.</p><p></p><h2 id="expanding-your-revenue-stack"><strong>Expanding Your Revenue Stack</strong></h2><p>The future of staking isn’t just the rate of rewards, but layered revenue strategies built on top of dependable infrastructure. Whether you’re running a non-custodial wallet or managing institutional capital, the ability to offer diverse staking services can become a core business line.</p><p>At P2P.org, we help you:</p><ul><li>Launch staking features fast with our white-label API</li><li>Capture MEV, LST, and restaking opportunities without the technical debt</li><li>Back your business with the support of 24/7 monitoring, slashing protection, and tailored dashboards</li></ul><p>Our end-to-end staking infrastructure is trusted by exchanges, wallets, custodians, and institutional asset managers around the globe. If you’re serious about staking, it’s time to think bigger than just network rewards.</p><p>Talk to our team of experts today to learn more about crafting your own bespoke staking approaches that utilize a broad portfolio of products and services. </p><div class="kg-card kg-button-card kg-align-center"><a href="mailto: [email protected]" class="kg-btn kg-btn-accent">Connect with our staking experts</a></div>

<p>We are proud to announce that P2P.org was selected as one of the 13 Genesis Validators for the IOTA Rebased mainnet launch that took place on May 5, 2025. This milestone represents a significant vote of confidence in our infrastructure and expertise as we join an elite group of validators tasked with ensuring the secure transition of the IOTA network to its new Move-based protocol.</p><h2 id="a-historic-transition-for-iota"><strong>A Historic Transition for IOTA</strong></h2><p>The IOTA network just saw its most significant evolution to date. On May 5, 2025, following the collective decision of IOTA token holders, the network transitioned to a fully decentralized, delegated Proof-of-Stake architecture through the IOTA Rebased upgrade.</p><p>This crucial upgrade required a meticulously coordinated Genesis Ceremony to ensure the flawless migration of all user funds, assets, and data from the current IOTA Stardust network to the new IOTA mainnet. As one of the 13 Genesis Validators, P2P.org played a pivotal role in this historic transition.</p><h2 id="the-genesis-ceremony-birthing-a-new-network"><strong>The Genesis Ceremony: Birthing a New Network</strong></h2><p>The Genesis Ceremony represents the birth of the new IOTA network in a truly decentralized manner. Each of the 13 validators independently created and verified the Genesis state of the new IOTA mainnet, ensuring a perfect 1:1 transfer of the final ledger state from the previous IOTA Stardust network.</p><p>This careful validation process ensured that every address, balance, and token was transferred correctly, maintaining the integrity of the network and preserving access for all token holders. The ceremony's design prevents any single entity from controlling the network, aligning with IOTA's vision of true decentralization.</p><h2 id="why-p2porg-was-selected"><strong>Why P2P.org Was Selected</strong></h2><p>Since our founding in 2018, P2P.org has built a reputation for excellence in non-custodial staking infrastructure. With over $5 billion in staked assets across 40 networks and supporting more than 90,000 delegators and 130+ institutional clients, our track record speaks for itself.</p><p>Over the past five months, we've collaborated closely with the other selected Genesis Validators to prepare for this launch, addressing technical challenges and implementing updates to ensure a smooth transition. Our selection validates our commitment to providing secure, reliable validator services for cutting-edge blockchain networks.</p><h2 id="the-genesis-validator-cohort"><strong>The Genesis Validator Cohort</strong></h2><p>P2P.org is honored to serve alongside twelve other distinguished validators:</p><ul><li>IOTA Foundation</li><li>IOTA Ecosystem DLT Foundation</li><li>Tangle Ecosystem Association</li><li>DLT GREEN</li><li>LugaNodes</li><li>Twinstake</li><li>Kiln</li><li>Stakin</li><li>Nansen</li><li>Blockscope</li><li>Coinage x DAIC</li><li>Staketab</li></ul><p>This carefully selected group represents a balance of institutional expertise, technical capability, and community presence—essential ingredients for the successful launch of the new IOTA network.</p><h2 id="next-steps-validator-onboarding-and-delegation"><strong>Next Steps: Validator Onboarding and Delegation</strong></h2><p>Following the successful Genesis Ceremony and the launch of the network, additional validators will now be able to join in a permissionless manner based on delegation from IOTA stakers. The IOTA Foundation will gradually delegate funds from its treasury to qualified validators to ensure a secure bootstrapping of the mainnet.</p><p>The network is expected to reach its full committee size of 50 active validators within five epochs (approximately 5 days). The composition of this committee will be determined entirely by delegation amounts, with updates occurring every epoch (24 hours).</p><h2 id="our-commitment-to-the-iota-ecosystem"><strong>Our Commitment to the IOTA Ecosystem</strong></h2><p>As a Genesis Validator, P2P.org is fully committed to supporting the long-term success of the IOTA ecosystem. We've invested significant resources in optimizing our infrastructure specifically for IOTA's unique requirements and have assembled a dedicated team to monitor and maintain our validator operations around the clock.</p><p>For IOTA token holders looking to participate in the network's security through delegation, P2P.org offers:</p><ul><li>Industry-leading reliability with 99.9%+ uptime</li><li>Enhanced security measures designed specifically for high-value networks</li><li>Transparent fee structure with competitive rates</li><li>Dedicated support for delegators of all sizes</li></ul><h2 id="looking-forward"><strong>Looking forward</strong></h2><p>We're excited about the future of IOTA and the new opportunities this upgrade will create for developers, users, and the entire blockchain community. The Move-based protocol implementation opens up powerful new capabilities for smart contracts and decentralized applications, and we're committed to supporting this ecosystem's growth.</p><p>Stay tuned for more updates as we approach the May 5th Genesis Ceremony.

This positions Tezos for significant growth in transaction throughput and overall network utility. The updated reward weights, effective since the start of the Rio upgrade, can be found on <a href="https://octez.tezos.com/docs/rio/adaptive_issuance.html?ref=p2p.org#reward-weights"><u>the Tezos Documentation</u></a>.</p><h3 id="improved-network-resilience"><strong>Improved Network Resilience</strong></h3><p>The upgrade also increases network reliability by reducing tolerance for inactive bakers.

Increased Network Rewards</strong></h3><p>After <a href="https://p2p.org/economy/tezos-staking-3x-rewards-after-the-quebec-upgrade/"><u>the introduction of Tezos staking</u></a>, it initially provided rewards that were twice (2x) as large as those from delegation. However, following the Quebec upgrade implemented on January 20, staking XTZ now provides three times (3x) greater rewards than delegation. While network rewards are continuously adjusted by the Adaptive Issuance mechanism, you can rest assured that staking will continue to offer three times the rewards. This is one of the key factors that makes staking particularly attractive.</p><h3 id="2-automatic-daily-compounding"><strong>2. Automatic Daily Compounding</strong></h3><p>Unlike delegation rewards, which rely on baker payments that can be irregular, staking rewards on Tezos are automatically distributed and compounded daily at the network level. This maximizes your earnings without requiring any extra steps.</p><h3 id="3-quick-access-to-funds"><strong>3. Quick Access to Funds</strong></h3><p>Now the unbonding period for staked XTZ equals just 4 days — a significant improvement that balances earning potential with reasonable access to your funds. While delegated funds remain liquid at all times, a short lock-up in exchange for up to three times higher rewards through staking offers an attractive trade-off, especially when compared to the lengthy unbonding periods on other networks.</p><h2 id="limited-time-offer-0-fees-on-staking-with-p2porg"><strong>Limited Time Offer: 0% Fees on Staking with P2P.org</strong></h2><p>To celebrate the Rio upgrade and encourage more Tezos holders to experience the benefits of staking, P2P.org is offering <strong>0% fees on all Tezos staking</strong> for a limited time.</p><p>As one of the original Tezos network participants (operating since 2018), P2P.org combines industry expertise with institutional-grade security for your staked assets.

This provides more regular compounding, helping your rewards grow faster.</p><p><strong>Q: Will my delegator rewards be paid out daily now?</strong> <br><strong>A:</strong> The protocol doesn't specify when delegation rewards must be paid — this remains at the baker's discretion. P2P.org will always be responsible for providing reasonable timelines that take into account effective compounding and cost efficiency</p><p><strong>Q: What is the Data Availability Layer (DAL) and do I need to worry about it?</strong> A: The DAL is a key component for Tezos scalability. As a staker or delegator, you don't need to take any action — the benefits will come automatically as the network capacity grows.</p><p><strong>Q: Are there any security risks with this upgrade?</strong> A: No, the Rio upgrade maintains Tezos' strong security model while improving user experience. The shorter unstaking period doesn't impact security but makes many network operations smoother.</p><h3 id="about-staking-vs-delegation"><strong>About Staking vs. Delegation</strong></h3><p><strong>Q: If I'm currently delegating with P2P.org, how do I switch to staking?</strong> <strong>A:</strong> Visit <a href="http://stake.tezos.com/?ref=p2p.org"><u>stake.tezos.com</u></a>, connect the wallet you're currently using for delegation, and follow the prompts to "Convert to Staking." The process takes just a few minutes.</p><p><strong>Q: Will I lose rewards if I switch from delegation to staking?</strong> <br><strong>A:</strong> No. Any pending delegation rewards will still be distributed to you according to our regular schedule, while your new staking rewards will begin accruing immediately.</p><p><strong>Q: How often can I expect rewards distribution?<br>A: </strong>Considering that the delegation activation and freezing periods are over, delegation reward payouts will follow your baker’s specific payout schedule. In the case of staking, rewards will always be distributed daily.</p><p><strong>Q: What's the main difference between staking and delegation?</strong> <br><strong>A:</strong> The key differences are: (1) Staking offers 3x higher network rewards (12.2% vs 4.1%), (2) Staking rewards compound automatically daily, and (3) Staked XTZ has a 4-day unbonding period while delegated XTZ remains fully liquid.</p><p><strong>Q: Do Tezos (XTZ) rewards compound?<br>A: </strong>Yes, for both delegation and staking, though there are slight differences. In the case of delegator rewards, the compounding effect depends on the baker’s payment schedule. That’s why it’s important to choose a baker with regular, timely payouts who also covers transaction fees (such as P2P.org). On the other hand, staking rewards are automatically distributed and compounded daily at the network level, maximizing your earnings without additional steps.</p><p><strong>Q: Is there a minimum amount required for staking?</strong> <br><strong>A:</strong> No, you can stake any amount of XTZ. However, given transaction fees on the network, we recommend staking amounts where the higher rewards will meaningfully outweigh the cost of transactions.</p><h3 id="about-the-0-fee-promotion"><strong>About the 0% Fee Promotion</strong></h3><p><strong>Q: How long will the 0% fee promotion last?</strong> <br><strong>A:</strong> The promotion is initially set for 30 days and will end on 31.01.2025, but we may extend it based on community response.</p><p><strong>Q: What happens to my staking fees after the promotion ends?</strong> <br><strong>A:</strong> After the promotion period, our standard competitive fee structure will apply to new rewards earned. The exact rate will be announced before the end of the promotion.</p><p><strong>Q: Can I unstake during the promotion period?</strong> <br><strong>A:</strong> Yes, you can initiate unstaking at any time. Remember that the new 4-day unbonding period will apply.</p><p><strong>Q: Does P2P.org have stake capacity limits?</strong> <br><strong>A:</strong> Yes, our staking capacity is determined by our self-stake amount. Currently, we're only at 11.9% of our staking capacity, so there's plenty of room for new stakers.</p><p>Have more questions?

Details can be found at https://trondao.org/</span></figcaption></figure><p>Founded in 2017, TRON has established itself as a significant player in the blockchain space with distinctive technical attributes. The network processes transactions every 3 seconds through its Delegated Proof of Stake consensus model, allowing for throughput of approximately 2,000 transactions per second. This architecture supports a diverse ecosystem of over 4,000 decentralized applications across DeFi, NFTs, gaming, and content distribution sectors. With more than $5 billion in total value locked (TVL) and 300+ million accounts, TRON's infrastructure prioritizes efficiency and accessibility. The network's design eliminates intermediaries by connecting creators and users directly, providing institutional participants with streamlined operations that do not compromise security or compliance requirements.</p><h2 id="tron%E2%80%99s-native-token-trx"><strong>TRON’s Native Token, TRX</strong></h2><p>As TRON's native cryptocurrency, TRX (Tronix) fuels the entire ecosystem through multiple integrated functions. It powers all economic activity across the network while enabling direct participation in the consensus model through staking. TRX holders gain governance authority with voting rights that shape network decisions. The token also serves as the currency for transaction fees and smart contract execution, creating a complete economic system within the TRON ecosystem.</p><h2 id="tron-super-representatives-validators"><strong>TRON Super Representatives Validators</strong></h2><p>TRON's Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus revolves around its Super Representatives—a council of 27 elected validators maintaining the network's integrity, security, and performance.</p><p>These validators form the backbone of TRON's capabilities. Every three seconds, Super Representatives produce blocks in a round robin structure. They continuously validate transactions and uphold protocol rules, ensuring network security. Their governance authority extends to voting on critical network decisions that shape TRON's progression. Perhaps most importantly for stakeholders, they share substantial block rewards with those who voted for them.</p><p>As incoming TRON Super Representative, P2P.org will simultaneously strengthen network infrastructure and create a pathway for institutions to access rewards on the TRON network. </p><p>You can view the current list of <a href="https://tronscan.org/?ref=p2p.org#/sr/representatives"><u>Super Representatives here. </u></a></p><h2 id="tron-staking-specifics"><strong>TRON Staking Specifics</strong></h2><p>TRON's distinctive staking approach combines flexibility with steady, reliable rewards.</p><p>The process centers on "freezing" your TRX tokens, which means temporarily committing them to network consensus without permanently locking them away. This freeze period requires just a 3-day minimum, after which you retain the flexibility to unfreeze if needed. Minimum stake is 1 TRX. </p><p>Your frozen TRX grants proportional voting power to elect Super Representatives, giving you direct influence over network governance. Beyond financial returns, staking generates valuable bandwidth and energy resources that substantially reduce transaction costs across all your TRON operations.</p><h2 id="reward-structure"><strong>Reward Structure</strong></h2><p>Historical network returns typically range from 6-8% annually, though actual returns may vary based on network conditions and validator performance. These rewards flow to stakeholders through regular distributions, arriving daily or weekly, depending on the stakers preference.</p><p>In the TRON ecosystem, your staking rewards don't automatically return to work for you. They simply accumulate in your wallet. This manual hurdle of adding the earned rewards back into your stake means most users and validators leave potential rewards on the table, forcing you to constantly monitor and stake those earned rewards. P2P.org eliminates this friction point entirely. We consistently monitor and put your TRX rewards back into your stake. </p><h2 id="ready-to-stake-trx"><strong>Ready to Stake TRX?</strong></h2><p>P2P.org is excited to join TRON as one of the 27 Super Representative validators.
