delegation create

Legacy spelling: this command was previously spelled delegation-create. Both spellings work, but only the nested spelling shown here appears in help and tab completion (v1.4.5+).

Create a delegation to a given pool id and the owner address/destination.

The owner of a delegation is the key authorized to withdraw from the delegation. The delegation creation will result in creating a delegation id, where coins sent to that id will be staked by the specified pool automatically. The pool does not have the authority to spend the delegated coins.

Usage​

delegation create <OWNER> <POOL_ID>

Arguments​

  • <OWNER>: The address that will have the authority to sign withdrawals from the delegation.

  • <POOL_ID>: The pool id of the pool that will receive the delegation and stake the coins.

Notes​

After creating a delegation, use delegation stake to send coins to the delegation id to begin staking. Use delegation list to view your delegation ids and their balances.
