Coinmetro's ETH Staking Program offers long-term, sustainable, secure, and easy-to-use passive income opportunities for all users! All it takes is a minimum of 0.01 ETH and a few clicks to start earning passive income.

What is Ethereum?

Ethereum is a decentralised open-source blockchain system that features its own cryptocurrency, Ether. ETH works as a platform for numerous other cryptocurrencies, as well as for the execution of decentralised smart contracts. Ethereum has pioneered the concept of a blockchain smart contract platform. Smart contracts are computer programs that automatically execute the actions necessary to fulfil an agreement between several parties on the internet. They were designed to reduce the need for trusted intermediaries between contractors, thus reducing transaction costs while also increasing transaction reliability. Learn more about ETH

Ending a staking plan

You can end your staking plan by simply selecting "Close". Ending your staking plan early comes with a penalty. 50% of the total paid rewards for the plan will be deducted from your staked ETH. A confirmation popup will display the penalty applied before you choose to confirm.

When entering or exiting an Ethereum staking plan, ETH is subject to an estimated bonding period.
