  1. Become a Kima delegator

Benefits

Delegating your $KIMA tokens has multiple benefits. Most of these are related to enhancing network security, reducing operation complexity and increasing participation.

Enhanced Security

Delegation allows for a wider distribution of decision-making power and staking responsibilities, thus reducing centralization.

Reduced operation complexity

A delegator who may not have the required technical expertise or resources to run a validator node can still participate in staking. Additionally, the amount required to run a validator often exceeds the funds a typical user might hold.

Delegation also allows delegators to diversify their portfolios by designating some tokens for delegation while keeping others for active trading or investment.

Increased participation

Delegators can participate in network decisions without having to manage the technical aspects of voting or governance. They can rely on validators to handle these aspects while still staking their tokens to influence network decisions.
