How do I begin staking?

Hi!

If you want to start a pool, then you need to register it:
https://docs.cardano.org/projects/cardano-node/en/latest/stake-pool-operations/register_stakepool.html
if you want to delegate to a pool:

Staking through Cardano-cli

I have a wallet with some Ada stored on it, but how do I delegate those coins through the use of cardano-cli? I am following Cardano’s Command Line Interface section but want to double check everything: First, Create the staking address keys: cardano-cli shelley stake-address key-gen –verification-key-file stake.vkey –signing-key-file stake.skey Second, create the payment Address: cardano-cli shelley address build –payment-verification-key-file payment.vkey –stake-verification-ke…

And if you want to combine this then you need to register a pool and provide your ADA as pledge
