There's no need to 'stake' your XAH to receive a steady return.

As part of it's core architecture, the Xahau network includes a mechanism to reward both infrastructure providers (validators) and those that choose to buy-and-hold XAH.

It's known as the "balance adjustment", and if you manage your accounts through the Xaman non-custodial wallet, the process is simple; each month you can 'claim' your reward by triggering a transaction created via an xApp called "Balance Adjustment". If you open your Xaman wallet, it's the xApp that looks like this:

Timing

To see how much of a reward that a specific account is eligible for, you don't need to open your wallet every time.

The Bithomp Xahau explorer will show you the timing of the adjustment, along with the specific reward amount, denominated in XAH, the native digital asset of the Xahau network:

It's a handy way to check on an account and its reward status without having to log into your wallet.

What The Transaction Looks Like

After you claim your monthly reward, you can view the interaction on any Xahau explorer. Here's what a successful claim reward looks like through the Bithomp explorer:

Simple And Straight-Forward

Unlike other digital assets that depend on trusting convoluted processes and unclear reward mechanisms, Xahau's approach is straight-forward, and is geared to directly reward those that support the network with both infrastructure and liquidity.
