It is a topic to discuss my experience with staking different coins that are PoS or have incentive to lock your tokens in a network, for the start I will put staking experience for four different coins/tokens:
Contents 1.
Zilliqa - ZIL 2.
Cardano - ADA 3.
Tron - TRX 4.
Travala - AVADisclosure: I am actively staking all coins/tokens in the list
Disclaimer: This is not a financial advise, and you have to do your own research before staking any of these coins/tokens, or any coin/token for the matter. Note: You can increase your coin/token holdings, but they can decrease in value, so you will not earn anything in the process.Zilliqa - ZILZilliqa is a smart contract platform that is providing fast transactions and staking opportunity. I am using Zilpay wallet, which is a web browser extension wallet and
https://stake.zilliqa.com/ website to stake Zilliqa on ViewBlock staked seed node. Picture below provides list of Staked seed nodes that can be used for staking
Note: Warning: Zillion is in beta phase. Use this dApp at your own risk.Compound - should be done manually, since there is not re-staking of your rewards
estimated APY - cca. 15% at the moment
experience - look at commission rates from different staking seed nodes, and follow their portals, since some offer good promotions for stackers on their nodes
Cardano - ADACardano is also a platform that provides staking opportunity on their network, via Delegators that are nodes in the network. I am using Yoroi wallet, which is a web browser extension wallet and [STR8] Straight Pool delegator. It is important to bear in mind saturation in the pool, especially since this is decreased in December 2020 to 63.6 million ADA per pool.
Compound - automatic, your rewards are automatically staked, without need to withdraw to wallet
estimated APY - cca. 6% at the moment
experience - saturation and commission rates should be looked at, and node history with block rewards, nodes that are most online should be preffered
Tron - TRXTron is a smart contract platform, that is mostly copying Ethereum, but has lower fees due to lower security in the network (decentralization is scaled back). I am using TronLink wallet, which is a web browser extension wallet and TronScan website, staking through representatives on a following link
https://tronscan.io/#/sr/representatives. List of first representatives in on a picture below, and I am using BitGuild.
Compound - should be done manually, since there is not re-staking of your rewards
estimated APY - cca. 6% at the moment
experience - it is pretty much automatic, and it is good to use known provider, but funds are not leaving your wallet while voted
Travala - AVATravala is travel booking project, that is providing crypto payments for Hotel reservations. In august they formed smart incentive to stake your AVA on their website, and get reward for staking. Basically, you are using web wallet provided by travala.com, and staking AVA provides you with yearly benefit of 24% APY, that is formed by 12% APY with AVA tokens, and 12% APY in smart credit that can be used for travelling. I am staking directly on their website and you can get discount on booking as well, as on a picture below
Compound - there is no compound and smart levels are predefined, you cannot stake different amount
estimated APY - cca. 24%, but 12% in AVA and 12% in smart credit
experience - it is good incentive for travelers, and users of travala website
Note: if you have any other staking platform that you are staking, please provide info for discussion below, I will try to update this list with other PoS and incentive tokens that I am using
