Create an account on the Elrond wallet, the official blockchain wallet.
For validator node status, stake at least 2,500 EGLD. With fewer tokens, delegate them to other validators with a 1 EGLD minimum.
Purchase EGLD on platforms like Bitget, then transfer to your Elrond wallet.
Choose either 'Delegate' or 'Validate' for staking:
For delegation, input your EGLD amount, pick a validator, and click 'Stake'.
For validation, select 'Stake Now', choose a Staking Provider, set your EGLD amount, and confirm.
Enjoy accumulating EGLD rewards!
