From December 7, eligible LINK holders can stake up to 15,000 LINK during a four-day period. General access opens on December 11, allowing anyone to stake up to 15,000 LINK, subject to pool availability.

Key Features of Chainlink Staking v0.2 include enhanced flexibility as the new unbonding mechanism for Community and Node Operator Stakers will maintain a secure non-custodial design. It also comes with security improvements by slashing node operator stake for enhanced security guarantees on oracle services.

In addition, we get modular architecture as this allows future improvements and additions to Chainlink Staking, ensuring adaptability for expanding services. Lastly, we get dynamic rewards. This version supports seamless integration with new external sources of rewards in the future, such as user fees.

The launch includes a capped 45,000,000 LINK pool, with a substantial allotment for community members. During Early Access and General Access, participants can stake a minimum of 1 LINK and a maximum of 15,000 LINK. Node Operator Stakers have a minimum stake of 1,000 LINK and a maximum of 75,000 LINK.

To assist users in migration and staking processes, Chainlink provides comprehensive tutorials, including video guides on the official Chainlink YouTube channel. Users are urged to exercise caution and verify the official Staking web page at https://staking.chain.link to prevent malicious activities.

Before engaging in Chainlink Staking v0.2, stakers are encouraged to understand the beta’s design intricacies, detailed in the v0.2 Overview Blog and Chainlink Staking FAQ. In-depth instructions for direct smart contract-level staking can be found in the IPFS-hosted guide.
