Active Valid Stake Pool requirement Coin

Dear Admins, Seniors, Members

Allow me to seek your advise, from my understanding.

  1. Registration/deposit 500 Cardano for Stake pool?
  2. How much minimum Cardano that I have to be invested? in order to let my node consistently receiving the rewards.

You really need 1.5M ada to ensure you get a block each time, but that is a big ask so you generally rely on getting delegators which needs a good marketing plan to attract delegators to your pool.

Thank you @jeremyisme.

  1. 5M ADA are the current or also apply for future situation in order to get a block each time?
    a. How could I calculate why we need 1.5 in order to be able stay active?

  2. How about if I setup a stake pool and delegate 100k of Cardano to my own pool, would my node to be rewarded?

  3. Could you do me a favor share me the link for current active stake pool.

I’m not sure where the 5M ada figure comes from, but somewhere around 1.5M will give you an average of 1 blocks per epoch. It depends on luck, so sometimes it would be 1, 2, 3, or 0.

But if you had say 100k, then you would probably get a block 1/15 epochs, it’s all just maths.

Dear @jeremyisme, all

Thank you sir.

  1. I’m not sure where the 5M ada figure comes from,

    • Apologies sir, not 5M but 1.5millions of Cardano perhaps could enlightening how is that number been retrieved?
  2. Could you do me a favor share me the link for current active stake pool?

the 1.5M is just experience/knowledge.
