Staking
SOL, ADA, TRX, NEAR, SUI and APT. You delegate from your own account to a validator, pool or Super Representative. They cannot spend your coins. On Cardano your ADA stays spendable.

What you can put to work, how long it stays locked, and what works from a hardware wallet.
| Option | Type | Assets | Lock | Hardware wallet |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ethereum · Lido | Liquid staking | ETH | stETH can be swapped. Unstaking goes through Lido’s queue, often 1 to 5 days | Yes |
| Aave · Ethereum | Lending | USDT, USDC, DAI, WETH | None | Yes |
| Aave · Arbitrum | Lending | USDT, USDC | None | Yes |
| Aave · Polygon | Lending | USDT, USDC | None | Yes |
| Aave · Base | Lending | USDC | None | Yes |
| Solana | Staking | SOL | About 2 to 3 days | Ledger, Trezor |
| Cardano | Staking | ADA (2 ADA deposit, returned) | None | Ledger, Trezor (rewards withdrawal: Trezor only) |
| TRON | Staking | TRX (minimum 1 TRX) | 14 days | No |
| NEAR | Staking | NEAR | 4 epochs, about 2 to 3 days | Ledger |
| Sui | Staking | SUI (minimum 1 SUI) | None | No |
| Aptos | Staking | APT (minimum 11 APT) | Up to 14 days | No |
Three kinds
Three ways to earn
They look alike in a list. They are different underneath.
Liquid staking
ETH with Lido. You receive stETH, and you can swap it or unstake through Lido’s withdrawal queue, then claim in Kyro. You rely on Lido’s contracts.
Lending
Aave v3 on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon and Base. You deposit tokens into a contract and earn the variable rate borrowers pay. You can withdraw when liquidity allows it.
Risks
What can go wrong
Yields are variable and paid by the protocol. You can lose money. Read this before you start.
Contract bugs
Lido and Aave are smart contracts Kyro does not control. A bug or an attack there can lose funds.
Depeg
stETH can trade below ETH, and a stablecoin can lose its peg.
Lower rewards
Rates move. A validator’s commission, downtime or a retiring pool can cut your rewards. A delinquent Solana validator pays nothing until it returns.
Waiting periods
TRON unstaking takes 14 days. Aptos takes up to 14 days. Solana and NEAR take a few days, and Solana can take longer. You earn nothing in the meantime, and prices keep moving.
Votes shrink
On TRON, unstaking reduces your votes in proportion. Kyro warns you first.
Price risk
Staked coins can lose value like any other. A rate does not protect you from that.
Kyro is a tool. Nothing on this site is financial advice.
Signing
See the contract, then sign
Every step shows the contract, the function and the exact amount. Approvals are for the exact amount only, never unlimited.
- Staking operations are a closed list. Everything else is refused, with your key as the only authority.
- On Solana, Kyro refuses authority changes and lockups.
- On NEAR, only pools from the official factories, with the expected code, are accepted.
- Risky choices, such as a commission above 10% on Solana, get a second confirmation.
- With a Ledger or Trezor, Kyro names the contract and function, then the device shows the transaction.

Common questions
Are the rates guaranteed?
No. Every rate in Kyro is an estimate and it moves. For Solana, Cardano and TRON it is network-wide, before the validator, pool or Super Representative takes its share.
Does Kyro take a fee on Earn?
Kyro takes no fee on staking. You pay the network fee, and validators, pools and protocols keep their own share of the rewards.
Can I use Earn with a Ledger or Trezor?
Yes for Lido and Aave. Staking works from Ledger and Trezor on Solana and Cardano, and from Ledger on NEAR; TRON, Sui and Aptos need a recovery-phrase account.
Can a validator take my coins?
On Solana, Cardano, TRON, NEAR, Sui and Aptos a validator, pool or Super Representative cannot spend your coins, and there is no slashing for delegators. A poor choice costs rewards.
Is lending on Aave the same risk as staking?
No. Your tokens go into a smart contract. A contract bug or a stablecoin losing its peg can cost you money. Kyro cannot remove those risks.
Is this financial advice?
No. Kyro shows options and their terms. Whether any of them suits you is your decision.
