Stake Monad (MON) with Everstake

The Everstake validator on Monad charges 15% commission, requires no minimum stake and accrues rewards on every block it produces.

There is no minimum stake. An epoch lasts about 4 hours 12 minutes (50,000 blocks at 300 ms). Rewards accrue per block produced and can be claimed at any time. There is no auto-compounding: delegators compound manually, and compounded rewards take effect from the next epoch.

Unstaking has a 1-epoch withdrawal delay, about 4.5 to 9 hours. Monad has no automated in-protocol slashing. Staking is non-custodial, so MON stays in the delegator's wallet.

The Everstake validator address is 0xd18Ea79d1A648160B077F694b835cB84f8B25958. Delegation happens on MonadVision.

MON delegation to Everstake takes 4 steps and completes on MonadVision, a third-party Monad staking dashboard.

1. Select a wallet that offers staking functionality. Connect an EVM wallet on Monad mainnet to MonadVision, keeping a small MON balance for gas.
2. Choose Everstake as your validator. Use the Stake MON button on this page, or open validator 0xd18Ea79d1A648160B077F694b835cB84f8B25958 on MonadVision.
3. Delegate your MON tokens. Enter the amount and confirm in the wallet. The stake becomes active from the next epoch, or the one after if submitted past the boundary block.
4. Get rewards. Rewards accrue as the Everstake validator produces blocks and are claimed or compounded in the same dashboard.

Note: MON stays in the delegator's wallet throughout. Everstake validates blocks and cannot move, spend or withdraw delegated MON.

Each Monad block pays its producing validator an 18 MON inflationary reward plus the block's priority fees. Everstake keeps its 15% commission from the inflationary reward and distributes the rest to delegators pro rata by stake (Monad docs).

A delegator holding 1% of the Everstake validator's stake receives 1% MON from every block Everstake produces.

The Monad staking APR on this page annualizes those rewards at current network stake, so it falls as total MON staked rises. The Monad staking calculator on this page projects rewards for a chosen amount of MON.

Monad restakes nothing automatically. Compounding in the dashboard adds rewards to the delegation, and the larger stake counts from the next epoch.

Everstake operates the Monad validator at 0xd18Ea79d1A648160B077F694b835cB84f8B25958, one of 196 slots (usually the number is around 200 slots) in Monad's active validator set. Its stake, commission and block production can be checked on MonadVision before delegating.

• Validator: runs Monad nodes, proposes and votes on blocks under MonadBFT, and receives delegations.
• Delegator: assigns MON stake to a validator and keeps ownership of that MON.

Active-set entry requires minimum 100,000 MON staked by the validator and 10,000,000 MON delegated to this validator to remain in the active validator list.

Monad is a layer 1 blockchain designed to enhance scalability while maintaining Ethereum compatibility. It achieves high performance with 10,000 transactions per second, 300-millisecond block times, and single-slot finality in about 600 milliseconds through parallel execution and superscalar pipelining.

Monad offers developers a familiar EVM environment, enabling easy dApp migration, and uses the MonadBFT consensus mechanism for efficient, secure transaction processing in a decentralized ecosystem.

Monad mainnet has run since 24 November 2025, making it one of the newest networks Everstake validates. Staking is not completely risk free, but in this case Monad doesn’t introduce new or unique risks:

• Slashing: Monad has no automated in-protocol slashing today. Offenses are logged, and a future upgrade could add penalties.
• Parameter changes: epoch length, block rewards and validator-set rules are protocol constants that upgrades can change; the July 2026 upgrade cut block time from 400 ms to 300 ms and the block reward from 25 MON to 18 MON.
• Reward variability: APR moves with total MON staked, and a validator that misses its leader slots receives no reward for those blocks.
• Market risk: MON's price can move during staking and the unstaking window.

Everstake handles MON delegations above $1,000,000 through its institutional staking team. Large delegators get a dedicated Monad validator engagement covering setup, operation, maintenance, built around their custody, compliance and reporting needs.
