Hello,
Anyone else have unexpected additional ADA sent during a delegation operation? My first delegation was supposed to cost .XX ADA but 2.XX ADA was sent instead.
Hi Koldar, This has been asked and answered as below
Yep all good, i sent this to support
The quoted fee for staking on the transaction page was quoted as 0.174433 ADA
Can we check the fee deduction is working correctly, it seems a bit misleading to quote a transaction fee of 0.174433 then actually deduct 2.174433
The response supports the replies above
Thank you for contacting the IOHK Technical Service Desk.
The 2 Ada you talk about,
those are the KeyDeposit required by the protocol to register you stake key. you can find it in the shelley genesis file under KeyDeposit https://hydra.iohk.io/build/3670619/download/1/mainnet-shelley-genesis.json
You get back the 2 Ada when you undelegate your Ada.
I hope this clarifies things a bit, let me know if you have further questions.
