How To Redelegate $LUNA On Trusted Node’s Staking Portal
Terra Station Re-Delegation Walkthrough
When unstaking from a Terra validator, your LUNA becomes unavailable for 21 days (the unbonding period). After these 21 days, it becomes available in your wallet and you will become able to stake with another validator. During the 21 day unbonding period, your LUNA do not generate rewards.
Trusted Node provides a simple redelegation feature for changing which validator you stake with, without having to go through the 21 day unbonding period.
The Redelegation process.
As you already have delegated to some validator, you probably have the Terra Station browser extension already installed. If not, please follow the following steps:
1. Installing the Terra Station wallet
The Terra Station extension is available in the Google Chrome store.
Click on “add to Chrome” and install the plugin.
2. Creating / Importing a new wallet
Once installed, you have 2 options: Creating a new wallet, or Importing an existing one. To import an existing account, you will need your seed phrase or your private key. If you do not already have an existing account, click on “Create new account”.
Next, write down your seed phrase and store it in a secure location. Avoid taking screenshots or sending it by mail, as hackers could get their hands on it and steal the funds in your wallet.
That’s it, your wallet is now created and ready to receive funds.
3. Connecting your wallet on Trusted Node
To connect your wallet on Trusted Node, you simply need to click on “Connect wallet” on the Staking Portal page.
From there, a Terra Station popup will appear and you simply have to click on “approve”. You will then be able to see your wallet address instead of the “connect wallet” button.
Now that your wallet is connected, you can start redelegating your LUNA tokens.
4. Redelegating your LUNA tokens
To do so, simply click on “STAKE” and a tab will open, displaying your LUNA balance on your wallet and your LUNA balance with another validator node, if you have any existing delegations. You can then decide to redelegate to Trusted Node by clicking “RESTAKE”
Choose the validator you already staked with and click “RESTAKE”
Enter the amount of LUNA you want to redelegate and click “RESTAKE”
That’s it! You just redelegated your LUNA tokens on Trusted Node and you are already accumulating rewards!!
