# Tezos staking

> Delegate your entire XTZ balance to a baker with no unbonding period and auto-compounded rewards.

Delegate XTZ to a Tezos baker through the Yield API. Tezos staking delegates the account's full available balance in one action; there is no unbonding period.

## Yields

| Yield ID | Staking type | Provider | Validator selection |
| - | - | - | - |
| `tezos-xtz-native-staking` | Native | Baker you choose | Required (`validatorAddress`) |

## Key facts

| | |
| - | - |
| Network ID | `tezos` |
| Staked token | XTZ |
| Unbonding | None |
| Warmup | None |
| Minimum | Full-balance delegation only (`amount` uses the -1/-1 full-balance convention) |
| Rewards | Auto-compounded, updated every block |

## Enter and exit

Enter takes `amount` (fixed to the full-balance convention) and requires `additionalAddresses.tezosPubKey`; a reveal operation runs first if the address has not yet published its public key on chain, then the whole available balance delegates to the baker in `validatorAddress`. Exit removes the existing delegation and takes no arguments beyond the account address and `tezosPubKey`.

<Note>
  Enter also requires `validatorAddress`, the baker you delegate to. The enter argument schema returned by the API doesn't currently list it, but the request fails without it.
</Note>

<Warning>
  Entering fails if the address is already delegated; exiting fails if it is not currently delegated.
</Warning>
