Video Tutorial
In this article, we’ll dive into how to stake tokens on Ethereum.Make sure you have a wallet and ETH
To follow this tutorial, you will need an Ethereum wallet to manage your tokens independently of an exchange. If you don't already have a wallet, see our tutorial on how to create your own wallet using Metamask. In addition to having a wallet, you'll need ETH to cover gas fees and staking. For guidance on obtaining funds, refer to our tutorial on how to purchase crypto directly within your wallet.Two types of staking
Before we start, it’s important to understand the two different types of staking we will cover today. The first type is native staking on Ethereum, where you lock up some ETH to help secure the network and validate transactions. In return, you earn a percentage of the gas fees paid by users, which is where the APY comes from. The second type involves lending any token on platforms like Compound and Aave. Here, you lend out tokens, and borrowers pay interest, which you then receive.Using Lido for native staking
Let’s get started! For the first method, we will use Lido. Lido is a liquid staking platform where users can stake tokens like ETH and receive liquid tokens in exchange, called stETH. These stETH tokens act as a receipt confirming that Lido has staked ETH on your behalf. As they are liquid, stETH tokens can be traded between wallets at any time and can be redeemed for the underlying ETH. The rewards are added directly to your stETH balance, which increases over time based on the APY. To stake your tokens, go to lido.fi and click on "Stake ETH." First, connect your wallet by tapping on "Connect wallet," then "WalletConnect," and selecting your wallet, in this case, Metamask. Next, enter the amount of ETH you want to stake, and then click on "Stake." Finally, confirm the transaction in your wallet, and you will see your staked amount in stETH tokens along with the APY.Using lending platforms
For the second method, we will use Aave. To access their website, go to aave.com and click on “Launch app.” Connect your wallet, and you will see the different tokens you can supply. Aave serves multiple protocols, you can check all the different protocols by tapping on the market selection button. Select the desired market, which in this case is the Ethereum market, since we are using the Ethereum network. In this example, we will supply ETH. Click on "Supply," then enter the amount of tokens you want to stake. Afterward, you will see the estimated APY and gas fee. If you are happy with the terms, click on “Supply” and confirm the transaction in your wallet. Once the transaction is executed on the blockchain, you will see the balance of the tokens you staked. If you want to withdraw them, click on “Withdraw,” enter the amount of tokens you want to withdraw, and confirm the action.100% Success Money Back Guarantee

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
