CRYPTO TAXES AND PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
If you live in the United States you must pay taxes on your staking rewards. If you’re lucky enough to live somewhere that doesn’t tax your crypto, portfolio management tools can still be really helpful.
We tested out four different crypto tax platforms and Koinly is by far our favorite. It’s the most bang for the buck and free to use until you generate a report.
Managing Your BAND Staking: Claiming, Unstaking, Redelegation
Claiming Rewards
Keplr mobile keeps claiming straightforward. Visit your BAND staking dashboard, tap “Claim,” and approve the transaction. Rewards are credited instantly.
You decide when to claim, reinvest, or deploy rewards elsewhere. Remember, we offer automatic compounding to increase yield.
Unstaking BAND
Life, markets, and personal plans change. Unstaking in Keplr means initiating the undelegation process, which triggers Band Protocol’s standard 21-day unbonding period. Your assets stay secure, just temporarily locked until the period ends.
Redelegating BAND
Keplr allows you to redelegate your BAND and switch validators without the 21-day unbonding period. It’s the click of a button.
