Why stake FET with Cosmostation?
Staking FET using Cosmostation gives you direct exposure to on-chain staking yields rather than relying on centralized exchange staking programs, that often charge huge commissions and restrict access to your tokens.
When using a non-custodial wallet like Cosmostation, you keep control of your private keys, choose your own validators, and can move or redelegate your stake whenver you like.
Cosmostation was built specifically for Cosmos chains, and recommended by the Fetch.ai team for native FET staking. The mobile app combines token management, staking, governance, and validator selection in a single UI that’s intuitive and easy to use.
WHERE TO BUY FETCH.AI (FET) TOKENS
Before staking, you need your FET tokens at a Fetch.ai mainnet address. You can start either with native FET from an exchange that supports mainnet withdrawals or with ERC‑20 FET that must be bridged to the Fetch.ai chain.
Coinbase only sells ERC-20 FET that must be bridged over to Fetch.ai mainnet. That can make things complicated and confusing, so we recommend swapping for FET in wallet.
1. Tap the planet icon
2. Tap the “COIN SWAP” icon
3. Select the token you want to swap from
4. Select ASI and FET for the output
5. Tap the “Swap” button

MONITORING REWARDS AND CRYPTO TAXES
Some countries, like the U.S. require you to pay income taxes on your staking rewards. Crypto portfolio management and tax tools, like Koinly are super handy. Even if your government doesn’t collect taxes on your crypto, it’s still a great way to keep track of transactions.
AND, Koinly is free to use. They only charge when generating a report, so it’s risk-free to try out. Use our referral link below when you sign up to lock in future discounts.
Security and best practices
Safeguard your Cosmostation wallet recovery phrase closely. Keep it written on paper offline and never share it with anyone you don’t trust with your life. Also, lock your phone with biometrics or a strong passcode, and consider enabling optional wallet security settings, like app locks.
When bridging or withdrawing from exchanges, double-check that the network field is set to Fetch.ai mainnet and that the address matches your Cosmostation Fetch address. Start with small test transfers whenever you interact with a new exchange, bridge, or validator to reduce the risk of user error.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I set up the Cosmostation wallet for FET staking?
Download Cosmostation from the iOS or Android app store, create a new wallet, and select the Fetch.ai mainnet network. Safely store your recovery phrase. Transfer your FET tokens into the wallet, either as native tokens or bridge ERC-20 tokens to the Fetch mainnet, then you’re ready to stake!
Can I stake FET tokens directly from an exchange with Cosmostation?
You cannot stake directly on Cosmostation from exchanges unless you withdraw your FET tokens to your Cosmostation Fetch.ai wallet address first. Some centralized exchanges support native FET withdrawals that you can send to Cosmostation for staking. Be sure to verify because sending ERC-20 FET to a native FET address will result in loss of funds.
What is the minimum amount of FET I need to stake with Cosmostation?
There is no strict minimum for delegation, but if you are bridging ERC-20 FET tokens to the Fetch.ai mainnet using the official token bridge, typically a minimum of 100 FET is required to perform the transfer.
How do I choose a validator for staking FET on Cosmostation?
Choose a validator based on criteria like uptime reliability, commission rates, community reputation, and transparency. We’d love to have you as a staking partner at Atlas. Cosmostation lists top validators by stake and performance—select multiple validators to diversify your stake and mitigate risk.
How do I claim or compound my staking rewards in Cosmostation?
In the Cosmostation app, you can view your accrued rewards and claim them anytime. You can either withdraw rewards to your wallet or choose to restake them to increase your staked amount, compounding your earnings over time.
Using Atlas and the REStake app gives us permission to claim and restake your rewards automatically. This saves you time and maximizes your staking APY. Check the carousel above or click here.
What is the unbonding period after unstaking FET?
After undelegating your FET tokens, they enter a 21-day unbonding period during which they cannot be transferred or staked. If you want to switch validators and move your FET tokens over to us at Atlas Staking, click the “Redelegate” button in-wallet.
Is staking FET on Cosmostation safe and secure?
Cosmostation is a non-custodial wallet where you hold your keys, so as long as you keep your mnemonic phrase secure and avoid phishing scams, your tokens are safe. We always recommend using a hardware wallet, like Ledger to keep your keys offline. Be sure to check out our wallet security checklist.
