### How can I set up my wallet and stake MATIC?
### How can I set up my wallet and stake POL?

Check the [Stake MATIC](https://www.ankr.com/docs/staking/liquid-staking/matic/stake/) user guide.
Check the [Stake POL](https://www.ankr.com/docs/staking/liquid-staking/pol/stake/) user guide.

### What is the minimum and maximum amount of MATIC I can stake?
### What is the minimum and maximum amount of POL I can stake?

Minimum amount:

* Staking MATIC on Ethereum, your minimum amount is 1 MATIC.
* Staking POL on Ethereum, your minimum amount is 1 POL.

* Staking MATIC on Polygon, there is no minimum amount.
* Staking POL on Polygon, there is no minimum amount.

Maximum amount:

* Staking MATIC on Ethereum, there is no maximum amount.
* Staking POL on Ethereum, there is no maximum amount.

* Staking MATIC on Polygon, your maximum amount is limited by the crosschain staking pool capacity. You will see the capacity while staking.
* Staking POL on Polygon, your maximum amount is limited by the cross-chain staking pool capacity. You will see the capacity while staking.

### What is the difference between MATIC staking on Ethereum and Polygon?
### What is the difference between POL staking on Ethereum and Polygon?

MATIC staking happens on Ethereum. You can stake/unstake any MATIC amount at once. Ethereum gas fee applies. Also, when unstaking, you receive your MATIC and rewards after the 3–4 days unbonding period.
POL staking happens on Ethereum. You can stake/unstake any POL amount at once. Ethereum gas fee applies. Also, when unstaking, you receive your POL and rewards after the 3–4 days unbonding period.



MATIC crosschain staking happens on Polygon. You may have to stake/unstake your MATIC in portions, as you’re doing it via a crosschain staking pool, which may not have the amount you need at the moment. Also, an additional fee applies. However, there is no unbonding period, so when unstaking you receive your MATIC and rewards instantly.
POL cross-chain staking happens on Polygon. You may have to stake/unstake your POL in portions, as you’re doing it via a cross-chain staking pool, which may not have the amount you need at the moment. Also, an additional fee applies. However, there is no unbonding period, so when unstaking you receive your POL and rewards instantly.

### How long does it take to unstake my MATIC?
### How long does it take to unstake my POL?

If you staked on Ethereum, you’ll receive your MATIC and rewards after the unbonding period of 80+ epochs; typically, it takes 3–4 days.
If you staked on Ethereum, you’ll receive your POL and rewards after the unbonding period of 80+ epochs; typically, it takes 3–4 days.



If you staked on Polygon via the crosschain staking pool, you’ll receive your MATIC and rewards instantly.
If you staked on Polygon via the cross-chain staking pool, you’ll receive your POL and rewards instantly.

### How do I receive rewards?

aMATICb is not actively supported anymore. We recommend you [switch your aMATICb for ankrMATIC (ex-aMATICc)](https://www.ankr.com/staking/switch/?from=aMATICb).



ankrMATIC (ex-aMATICc) is a reward-bearing token, meaning its quantity stays the same from the moment of staking. Instead, it appreciates in value in relation to MATIC, so the redemption price of 1 ankrMATIC will grow over time because of reward accumulation.
ankrPOL is a reward-bearing token, meaning its quantity stays the same from the moment of staking. Instead, it appreciates in value in relation to POL, so the redemption price of 1 ankrPOL will grow over time because of reward accumulation.

### How soon after staking will I begin to receive rewards?

aMATICb rewards arrive in your wallet every rebase, which is daily. A propos, aMATICb is not actively supported anymore. We recommend you [switch your aMATICb for ankrMATIC (ex-aMATICc)](https://www.ankr.com/staking/switch/?from=aMATICb).



ankrMATIC rewards are built into the token. Effectively, your rewards accumulate daily as ankrMATIC grows in value relative to MATIC.
ankrPOL rewards are built into the token. Effectively, your rewards accumulate daily as ankrPOL grows in value relative to POL.

### Is there any risk from staking, like slashing or any penalties?

The only risk for stakers is missing out on rewards during any time a validator they staked with is slashed. Slashing is a protocol-level penalty associated with a validator failure if it validates an invalid transaction or goes offline. The delegated staked MATIC is not slashed — slashing impacts only the self-stake of the validator. Ankr only delegates to trusted and reputable validator nodes to avoid any validator that would act maliciously.

### Why do I get less ankrMATIC (ex-aMATICc) for my 1 MATIC?
### Why do I get less ankrPOL for my 1 POL?

ankrMATIC (ex-aMATICc) only changes in value, which is why the amount of ankrMATIC you get when staking is calculated by the formula `stake * exchange_ratio`. The exchange ratio is calculated like this: `totals_supply_of_ankrmatic / (total_staked_matic + total_rewards_for_staked_matic - total_unstaked_ankrmatic)`.
ankrPOL only changes in value, which is why the amount of ankrPOL you get when staking is calculated by the formula `stake * exchange_ratio`. The exchange ratio is calculated like this: `totals_supply_of_ankrpol / (total_staked_pol + total_rewards_for_staked_pol - total_unstaked_ankrpol)`.

### Can I use cold wallets for staking?

Yes, you can use Ledger Nano cold wallets through MetaMask. Visit the Ledger's [guide on connecting Ledger through MetaMask](https://www.ledger.com/academy/security/the-safest-way-to-use-metamask).

### Are there any docs about the DOT staking and how I set up my wallet etc.?

Yes — there is a [user guide](https://www.ankr.com/docs/liquid-staking/matic/stake/).

### Can I get staking metrics for my integration?

Yes, if you want to integrate Ankr Liquid Staking into your product, read [Liquid Staking Metrics](https://www.ankr.com/docs/staking-for-developers/restful-api/staking-metrics/).

### Can I unstake my aMATICb on Polygon?

ankrMATIC (ex-aMATICc) supports staking and unstaking on Polygon.
### Can I unstake my ankrPOL on Polygon?

aMATICb only supports Ethereum. You can bridge your aMATICb to Ethereum and then unstake it.
ankrPOL supports staking and unstaking on Polygon.
