What is Internet Computer?
Internet Computer aims to host fully on-chain web applications. ICP is staked by locking it in a 'neuron' for a dissolve delay you choose, which also grants governance voting power.
How to stake ICP
- Get an official wallet that supports Internet Computer — the link on this page goes to Internet Computer's official site, which lists supported wallets.
- Transfer or hold your ICP in that wallet. On most networks this keeps you in full control of your coins.
- From the wallet's staking or delegation screen, research and choose a validator (see our guide on choosing a validator).
- Confirm the delegation transaction. Rewards typically begin accruing automatically after a short activation period.
- Monitor your validator's performance periodically, and remember any unbonding period that applies if you later want to undelegate.

Unbonding & lock-up
Neurons have a configurable dissolve delay chosen by the staker, commonly ranging from 6 months up to 8 years — longer commitments earn a larger voting/reward multiplier.
