TL;DR

Everstake has deployed its oracle service on the Chainlink network. Everstake never holds or manages LINK on a staker's behalf, staking happens entirely inside Chainlink's contracts.

Full staking details ↓

  • Chainlink staking is available through Chainlink's own Community Staking smart contract.

  • LINK holders lock tokens directly into a Chainlink smart contract, and there is no step where a staker delegates LINK to Everstake or to any other node operator.

  • Chainlink's community staking is currently full and capped at 40,875,000 LINK, with a community-pool reward rate of 4.32% effective (a 4.5% base rate less the 4% auto-delegation to node operators), published by Chainlink.

  • Unstaking is not immediate: a 90-day ramp-up governs locked rewards, and exiting requires a 28-day cooldown followed by a 7-day claim window.

  • If you are a LINK holder, protocol or enterprise that needs a dedicated Chainlink node, contact Everstake for a custom solution.
