FAQs

General Co-Staking Questions

Yes.
As the device owner, you can not co-stake with your own devices.
To ensure that more users can benefit from co-staking offers, we have set a claim cap of up to two offers per IO account.

Identity & Anonymity

No, the marketplace deliberately anonymizes this information for privacy. However, wallet details remain public on the blockchain.
If the co-staking offer is still not being taken up, the device owner can simply cancel the offer and create a new one. Otherwise, they must unstake and wait for the cooldown period to pass before creating a new one.

Staking Structure & Financial Impact

No. Only one co-staker is allowed per offer.
If BR (Block Rewards) are slashed, co-stakers are also impacted.
The device will immediately stop earning Block Rewards for both the supplier and co-staker as the device no longer meets the requirement for earning Block Rewards. Staked $IO will not be automatically unstaked and will need to be manually unstaked and go through the applicable Wait Period and/or Cooldown period.
