I do not understand anything in the delegation. I have just delegated my ADA for 2 weeks, nothing is happening. I do not understand.

Ok, where did u delegated, to which pool and in which epoch?

delegation process:

- delegate epoch N
- snapshot epoch N+1
- delegation become active N+2
- rewards are calculated (if the pool created blocks) epoch N+3
- rewards are redistributed (if any) epoch N+4

U must wait min 15 days maxim 20 days till ur first reward

And keep in mind that the rewards are delayed with 2 epochs
