1.Coinbase Expands Support for Tezos Staking to the UK and 3 Other European Nations

US-based cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase has launched  the  Tezos staking rewards  for Its US customers . It allows customers from the UK, Spain, France, and the Netherlands to get Tezos (XTZ) staking rewards. The announcement is published  via coinbase official blog post .

Coinbase first launched its Tezos staking service in the U.S. a year ago in November 2019. Coinbase now asserts that its customers have earned $2 million in crypto rewards since then. The crypto exchange additionally referenced that crypto staking is  another worthwhile  option to traditional investments like bonds and equities.

The official press release states:

With today’s launch, Coinbase is offering an easy, secure way for UK and certain EU customers to actively participate in the Tezos network. While it’s possible to stake Tezos on your own or via a delegated staking service, it can be confusing, complicated, and even risky with regard to the security of your staked Tezos. We’re changing that with staking rewards on Coinbase.

With Coinbase staking rewards:

• You can start earning rewards on your crypto. The current evaluated yearly profit for Tezos staking on Coinbase is ~5%. You’ll see your pending rewards increase in real-time in the app, and once your underlying holding period completes (35–40 days), you’ll receive rewards in your account every 3 days.
• You will consistently  maintain control. Your Tezos consistently remains in your account; you simply earn rewards while keeping your crypto securely on Coinbase. You can quit whenever you need.

To begin, simply buy Tezos on Coinbase or send Tezos to your Coinbase account from an external wallet, and you’ll begin earning rewards immediately.

Coinbase launched staking services for Cosmos (ATOM) and Algorand (ALGO) tokens last week. Several firms are now offering staking services, including exchanges, venture firms and custodians.
