Delegating your DAG tokens allows you to earn rewards by supporting network validators without running a node yourself. Follow this step-by-step guide to begin delegating your DAG tokens on the Constellation Network.


Step 1: Prepare Your Wallet

1.1 Install a Compatible Wallet

To delegate DAG, you need a compatible wallet that supports Constellation Network, such as Stargazer Wallet.

  • If you don’t have Stargazer Wallet, .

  • Follow the instructions to set up a new wallet or import an existing one.

1.2 Fund Your Wallet with DAG

If you're testing delegated staking on Integrationnet, make sure to:

  1. Open your Stargazer Wallet and switch the network to integrationnet.

  2. Get some test DAG by using the integrationnet faucet: {your DAG wallet address}

Just replace {your DAG wallet address} with your actual wallet address,

  1. Go to

Once you’ve got some test DAG, you’re ready to stake and explore!

Ensure your wallet has enough DAG tokens for delegation.

  • If you need DAG, check all the available options at .

  • Confirm that your DAG balance appears correctly in your wallet.


Step 2: Access the DAG Explorer

2.1 Open DAG Explorer

2.2 Connect Your Wallet

  • Click "Connect Wallet" at the top right corner.

  • Select Stargazer Wallet and approve the connection.

  • Your DAG balance and any previous delegations will now be visible.


Step 3: Choose a Validator

3.1 Browse Available Validators

  • Scroll through the list of validators.

  • Use filters to find a validator by name, performance, or delegation fees.

  • Click on a validator’s name to view details like total delegated DAG, commission rate, and validator description.

3.2 Select a Validator

  • Pick a validator that aligns with your preferences.

  • Consider factors such as:

    • Validator Commission Rate (5%–10%) - This is the percentage the validator you selected will receive from your delegation rewards. Your initial delegated amount remains the same and is not affect by this comission

    • Total Delegated DAG

    • Metagraph (if delegating to a project validator)


Step 4: Delegate Your DAG

4.1 Initiate Delegation

  • Click the "Stake DAG" button on your chosen validator.

  • A pop-up window will appear to enter your delegation amount.

4.2 Enter the Amount to Delegate

  • Type the amount of DAG you want to delegate.

  • You can also use quick selection buttons (50%, Max) to allocate your DAG.

  • Confirm that your available balance is sufficient.

4.3 Confirm & Approve Transaction

  • Delegating DAG requires two transactions on the network

    • Lock DAG

    • Delegate to Validator

  • Click "Lock DAG" to initiate delegation.

  • Approve the transaction in your wallet.

  • After the transaction is confirmed click "Delegate DAG"

  • Wait for confirmation; your delegation will be recorded on the network.

Delegating DAG is a simple way to earn rewards and support the Constellation Network. By following this guide, you can securely delegate your DAG to any available node validator. Keep following this guide to learn how to monitor your rewards and manage your delegated positions efficiently!
