# Arbitrum staking

> Delegate GRT to a The Graph indexer on Arbitrum with daily reward accrual and a 28-day thaw period on exit.

Delegate GRT to a The Graph indexer on Arbitrum, The Graph's home network. Rewards accrue daily; exiting starts a 28-day thaw before funds can be withdrawn.

## Yields

| Yield ID | Staking type | Provider | Validator selection |
| - | - | - | - |
| `arbitrum-grt-native-staking` | Native | The Graph indexers | Required |

## Key facts

| | |
| - | - |
| Network ID | `arbitrum` |
| Staked token | GRT |
| Unbonding / cooldown | 28 days (thaw period) |
| Minimum | 1 GRT |
| Rewards | Auto, credited to the position daily |

## Enter and exit

Enter with `amount` (1 GRT minimum) and `validatorAddress` (the indexer address), both required. If your GRT allowance is insufficient, the API returns an approval transaction ahead of the delegation transaction.

Exit with `amount` and `validatorAddress` to undelegate. The undelegated amount enters a 28-day thaw period and earns no rewards during that time. Withdrawal after the thaw is a separate step.

## Managing the position

| Action | What it does |
| - | - |
| `WITHDRAW` | Move the thawed balance to the available balance after the 28-day thaw period |
