Moonstake Now Supports FIO Staking

SINGAPORE, Feb 21, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Moonstake is pleased to announce that our users can now earn interest from staking the FIO token of the FIO Protocol on our Web Wallet! Hold, send, receive, and stake FIO to receive rewards with the best user experience through one single click. After Cosmos, IRISnet, Ontology, Harmony, Tezos, Cardano, Qtum, Polkadot, Quras, Centrality, Orbs, IOST, TRON, and Shiden, FIO became the 15th staking coin available on Moonstake. Moonstake is now also one of the official Block Producers on FIO.


FIO staking activation is scheduled to take place on 22nd February 2022. Before this activation, each FIO token staked will begin accruing rewards at an early-access rate. Through this partnership, the Moonstake and FIO teams have worked together to bring you FIO staking feature before Staking Activation to start earning the early-access, proportional reward potential on Moonstake Wallet.

After Activation is achieved, and as more tokens are allocated to the Staking Rewards Pool moving forward, rewards accrued per FIO token staked will decrease over time. This means that, after Activation is achieved, those who still stake earlier will accrue greater proportional rewards than those who stake later.

Moonstake started the staking business last year with the aim to create the largest staking network in Asia. Since then, we have developed the most user-friendly Web Wallet and Mobile Wallet (iOS/Android) with support for over 2000 cryptocurrencies. After a full-scale operation launched in August 2020, Moonstake's total staking assets have grown rapidly to reach $1.8 Billion, allowing Moonstake to become one of the top 10 staking providers globally. Since March this year, Moonstake has also entered DeFi together with the newly launched DeFi platform, Muse.Finance, who has begun releasing its core DeFi products which are all scheduled to be integrated into Moonstake platform to enable advanced DeFi connectivity for our global users.

Meanwhile, FIO (short for Foundation for Interwallet Operability) was founded in 2020 and aims to enable easier, safer and more joyful crypto transactions on any type of token or coin. The FIO Protocol is designed to ensure the cryptocurrency user experience is uncomplicated and lays the foundation for cryptocurrency mass adoption. Long complex addresses have been replaced with user-customized FIO Crypto Handles such as "user@fio" that enable decentralized sending, receiving and payment requests (invoices, order carts, etc.), as well as, cross-chain end-to-end encrypted metadata (the information for those invoices, order carts, etc.) that can work across all blockchains.

How to stake FIO on Moonstake Wallet

Here's a simple 3-step process to stake FIO with Moonstake Wallet:
- Register your Moonstake Wallet via Web or mobile (iOS/Android)
- Select FIO from the "Wallets" screen and click the "Add Asset" button.
- Access the FIO screen to check your staking information. From the Staking tab, click the "Stake" button, input the amount to stake, and enter your wallet password to complete.

How FIO staking works

Hold FIO, no minimum staking amount.
Agree to lock in and stake FIO

While your FIO tokens are being staked, they remain in your wallet while you earn staking rewards. The Staking method ensures that stakers of FIO Tokens will always earn a positive return - meaning they receive more FIO Tokens back when they unstake than the number they staked.

How to get rewards for FIO staking

Rewards are given in FIO tokens and users will have to claim rewards. Please note that if you unstake your tokens prior to staking activation on 22nd February 2022, you will not receive any rewards.

How FIO unstaking works

If token holders want to send an asset that is currently staked, they will need to unstake it first. Unstaked tokens are locked and are unspendable for a period of 7 days. After that, they can be transferred as normal.

Moonstake is proud to deliver on our promise of bringing great value to users worldwide not only through enabling FIO staking, but also by integrating the feature before FIO staking officially launches on Mainnet, allowing our users to enjoy the greatest amount of earning potential per token staked.

Moonstake Collaborates with deBridge to Enable Cross-chain Bridge for Assets and NFTs

SINGAPORE, Feb 14, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Today, Moonstake is happy to announce our collaboration with the innovative cross-chain interoperability and liquidity transfer project deBridge. Through this collaboration, Moonstake will become a validator for the deBridge network that facilitates seamless bridging of any arbitrary asset and data, and NFTs across a wide range of blockchains including Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, HECO, Arbitrum, and Polygon initially, with many more to come. Their infrastructure is enabling interoperability not only for assets and data, but also for NFTs and Metaverses.


Moonstake launched its staking business in 2020 with the aim to create the largest staking network in Asia. Since then, it has developed the most user-friendly Web Wallet and Mobile Wallet (iOS/Android) with support for over 2000 cryptocurrencies. Currently, Moonstake supports 14 high-demand staking coins: Cosmos, IRIS, Ontology, Harmony, Tezos, Cardano, Qtum, Polkadot, Quras, Centrality, Orbs, IOST, TRON, and Shiden. After a full-scale operation launched in August 2020, Moonstake's total staking assets have grown rapidly to reach $1.8 Billion and by June 2021, Moonstake was the third best staking provider in the world out of 15,000 staking providers worldwide. In March 2021, the company entered DeFi with Muse.Finance, a DeFi platform, and will continue to expand into the DeFi business.

deBridge is a cross-chain interoperability and liquidity transfer protocol that allows truly decentralized transfer of arbitrary data and assets between various blockchains. The cross-chain intercommunication of deBridge smart contracts is powered by the network of independent validators elected by deBridge governance. These elected validators, which now includes Moonstake through this partnership, run a full node of each supported blockchain and the deBridge node to perform validation of cross-chain transactions that pass between smart contracts of the deBridge protocol in different chains.

deBridge commenced during the Chainlink Global Hackathon where the team strived to solve the urgent problems of transferring data and liquidity between blockchains and the lack of a single decentralized standard for bridging assets. The project was awarded the grand prize, taking first place among more than 140 teams worldwide.

On the collaboration, Founder of Moonstake, Mitsuru Tezuka, says: "As one of the world-leading staking providers, Moonstake is happy to support deBridge in building a truly decentralized cross-chain interoperability framework for blockchains, protocols, and applications as an official validator. We are very impressed with deBridge technical prowess and strong vision for not only technological innovation but also security for users, both of which are also key values that align with the vision of Moonstake to enable users the most advanced, safe, and friendly experience with digital assets.".

Alex Smirnov, CEO of deBridge, comments: "Our team is thrilled that Moonstake will be a part of deBridge's validator network to facilitate security and reliability. It's important for us to have experienced validators when we're building cross-chain infrastructure, and we're looking forward to working with Moonstake moving forward.

Moonstake Partners with Astarter Project, EMURGO’s JV for Accelerated DeFi Development on Cardano

SINGAPORE, Feb 4, 2022 - (ACN Newswire) - Today, Moonstake is thrilled to announce our partnership with Astarter, a DeFi infrastructure hub on Cardano to facilitate the development of decentralized financial (DeFi) services infrastructure on Cardano. Astarter is a joint venture supported by EMURGO, the official commercial arm of the Cardano blockchain protocol, who has recently acquired Infinity Blockchain Group, the group leading Moonstake's development. Currently, Moonstake and Astarter are working to enable Moonstake users priority access to Astarter's service via a seamless native connection function once it is launched.


Moonstake launched its staking business in 2020 with the aim to create the largest staking network in Asia. Since then, it has developed the most user-friendly Web Wallet and Mobile Wallet (iOS / Android) with support for over 2,000 cryptocurrencies. Currently, Moonstake supports 14 high-demand staking coins: Cosmos, IRIS, Ontology, Harmony, Tezos, Cardano, Qtum, Polkadot, Quras, Centrality, Orbs, IOST, TRON, and Shiden, as well as ERC-721 and Cardano NFTs.

In March 2021, the company entered DeFi with Muse.Finance, a DeFi platform, and will continue to expand into the DeFi business.

Meanwhile, Astarter is a key DeFi infrastructure hub on Cardano with four core applications: Launchpad, DEX, Money Market & Tech Service Platform.

Upon completion, Astarter will also plan to integrate lending & borrowing (decentralized money market) features on Cardano. These services aim to bring more utility to Cardano ADA users and open up financial services to a greater number of people in underserved regions.

Moonstake has been in discussions with Astarter from the beginning for the functional connection, and is working to give Moonstake users priority access to Astarter's service once it launches.
