Stake, Delegate and Withdraw
The basic requirement to become a Eram chain validator is to have a stake amount of at least 200 Eram tokens. The stake amount is the sum of staked and delegated Eram tokens of the address. This guide walks trough the process of using MEW (MyEtherWallet.com) in the process of using Eram network.Roadmap - Those functionalities will be built into our Studio and will not require any technical knowledge in the future.
Stake
There are two options to stake (both should be called from the address which would be the validator)
1.Send Eram tokens to the consensus contract - 0x476c29c5589BFE3C0E4A509bb92545882bb4Db82 on the eram network.
2.Call the `stake` function on the consensus contract - 0x476c29c5589BFE3C0E4A509bb92545882bb4Db82 on the eram network.
Delegate
Eram token holders who don't want to run a node by themselves but still wish to participate in governing the network can delegate any amount to one of the validators.Delegating is done by calling the `delegate` function on the consensus contract with the validator address as data (see screenshot from MEW).
Withdraw
Both stakers and validators can withdraw their Eram tokens, up to the staked/delegated amount, at any time. The withdrawn amount will be deducted from the validator stake amount, and if the stake amount becomes below the minimum stake amount - the validator will be removed from the Eram chain validators list.There are two options to withdraw:
1.Call the `withdraw` function on the consensus contract with one parameter - the amount to withdraw. This call is for stakers, and will reduce the stake amount of the sender address.
2.Call the `withdraw` function on the consensus contract with two parameters - validator address and amount to withdraw. This call is for both stakers (who can use their own address as the parameter) and for delegators to withdraw their delegated stake on a specific validator.
