This article covers everything you need to know to get started with staking XTZ on Coinmetro on both web and mobile.

🪙 What is XTZ?

XTZ is the native cryptocurrency of the Tezos blockchain, a smart contract and decentralized application (dApp) platform designed to be self-upgradable and energy-efficient. Holders of XTZ can use it to pay for transaction fees, participate in decentralized applications, and “bake” (stake) their tokens to help secure the network while earning rewards. Unlike many blockchains that require hard forks to upgrade, Tezos uses on-chain governance, allowing XTZ holders to vote on protocol changes and improvements, making it a flexible and community-driven ecosystem.
