Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is my XTZ safe when I delegate?
A: Yes. Delegated XTZ never leaves your wallet, and you can spend it anytime.Q: What’s the difference between delegating and staking?
A: Delegating is flexible, with no lock-up and lower rewards. Staking locks your XTZ for higher rewards, and unstaking takes 4 days.Q: What does the 10% fee mean?
A: We keep 10% of the rewards your XTZ earns. You receive the other 90%.Q: When do I get paid?
A: Every cycle, roughly once a day. Delegation rewards come from blockrewards.tez, and staking rewards are added directly by the protocol.Q: How do I stop?
A: To stop delegating, change or remove your delegate in your wallet; it takes effect right away. To stop staking, unstake, then finalize after 4 days.Q: Where can I see past payouts?
A: On TzKT, using the links above. We also post a notice each cycle on X and Bluesky.More questions? See the Learn section.

Q: Does Block Bakery have room for me?
A: Yes. Each baker can only earn rewards on delegated XTZ up to a capacity limit set by its own stake. Delegations above that limit earn nothing, which lowers every delegator’s yield. Block Bakery has plenty of capacity, so your rewards won’t be diluted. Learn more ➜Q: How does Block Bakery keep my rewards safe?
A: We run a single validator instance, so we can never double-sign, and we’ve had zero double-signing events since 2023. Our signing keys live on a dedicated hardware signer, kept separate from the internet-facing node. We run current, stable Octez releases, and brief maintenance doesn’t affect delegators’ rewards.Q: Why is Tezos considered secure?
A: Tezos was designed with formal verification in mind: key parts of the protocol and smart contracts can be mathematically proven to behave as intended, which helps catch bugs before they cause harm.Q: Is Tezos energy-efficient?
A: Yes. Tezos uses proof-of-stake, so the network is secured by staked XTZ rather than energy-intensive mining.Q: What do tz1, tz2, tz3 and tz4 addresses mean?
A: The prefix shows which cryptographic curve created the account’s keys: tz1: Ed25519 (the most common for regular wallets)
tz2: Secp256k1
tz3: P-256
tz4: BLS12-381Block Bakery signs with a tz4 consensus key, which allows signatures to be combined efficiently and helps Tezos scale.Q: When did Tezos art marketplaces launch and close?
