About Regen Network
Regen Network (REGEN) is a blockchain network focused on ecological sustainability, enabling projects and stakeholders to create, verify, and trade ecosystem services like carbon credits.
Built on the Cosmos SDK, it offers a decentralized framework for measuring and valuing environmental impacts, ensuring transparency and accountability in ecological restoration initiatives. By leveraging smart contracts, Regen Network connects farmers, land stewards, and investors to incentivize regenerative practices, rewarding those who actively contribute to planetary health.
The network’s native token, REGEN, facilitates governance and staking while powering transactions on the platform.
Regen Marketplace, one of its flagship applications, allows users to mint, buy, and sell verified ecological assets, such as carbon sequestration credits.
With its focus on climate action and a thriving community, Regen Network positions itself as a leader in utilizing blockchain technology for ecological transformation.
How to Stake REGEN
1. Install the Keplr Wallet Extension
For the focus of this guide, we recommend using the Keplr wallet. While Leap is usable, this guide will be walking through a demonstration with Keplr.
However, if you would like to use Leap wallet and stake directly to the Chorus One validator via Mintscan, you can reference the quick guide below to start your Leap wallet.
If you already have a wallet installed, feel free to skip ahead to How to Stake.
In case you don't have the Keplr extension installed in your browser, please visit https://www.keplr.app/ and click on 'Install Keplr'.
Click on Install Keplr for Chrome if you are using a Chrome browser or Brave if you are using the Brave browser and follow the installation instructions.
2. Create/Import an Account
Click on the extension in the Chrome/Brave toolbar and the following page will open up.
In case you do not have an existing Keplr account you can click 'Create a new wallet'.
If you already have a wallet to use, you can select 'Import an existing wallet' or you can connect with a compatible hardware wallet, such as a Ledger device.
Alternatively, Keplr now offers the ability to associate your wallet with your Google account, however, this is a less secure way of establishing your wallet and is not recommended.
If you choose to create a new wallet you will be shown 12 words as your mnemonic seed.
Optional: You can select the 24 words option for a more secure mnemonic.
Please be sure to back up your mnemonic seed securely.
It is recommended to store it physically; never in a digital format or as a screenshot.
Never share this seed phrase with anyone, as they will have access to your funds.
A lost mnemonic seed phrase cannot be recovered.
Anyone with your mnemonic seed phrase can take control of your assets.
Next, enter an account name and a passphrase to lock and unlock your wallet. You will be asked for the mnemonic again.
Enter the 12 or 24 words in order and case sensitive (all lower case).
This is to make sure you remember the mnemonic and confirm that you wrote it down correctly.
After verifying your 12 or 24 word phrase, you will be prompted to select any other Cosmos Hub networks you'd like to add to your wallet.
In this case, we will be adding Regen Network (REGEN), so please be sure to select that from the list or use the search bar to find it.
No need to add any other networks if you don't plan on using them yet. You can always select more networks later.
However, it is advisable to have 'Cosmos Hub' selected when creating your new wallet.
Once you selected the relevant networks you want to use, click 'Save' and you'll be all set to go.
3. Log in to your Keplr wallet
Regardless of whether you already have an wallet or if you just created it, you can now click on the Keplr extension to view your address or visit https://wallet.keplr.app/?tab=overview to see your full Keplr dashboard.
Or you can go to https://wallet.keplr.app/?tab=staking to view all assets you hold that can be staked and overview your staking positions.
4. Stake your REGEN
If you don't already have some REGEN in your wallet, you can fund it with some tokens. You may use an exchange to transfer the tokens to your address or get them from a trusted third party that already holds some.
If you want to stake from the browser extension wallet, you can either navigate to the Keplr dashboard (shown below) or scroll down on the wallet screen and select REGEN.
Alternatively, you can connect Keplr to the Mintscan explorer and stake to the Chorus One validator at this address: regenvaloper15urq2dtp9qce4fyc85m6upwm9xul3049l7gjdc

Next, you will be prompted to stake.
If you click on REGEN directly from your wallet extension, you will see the option to stake. Click on that to be taken to the REGEN page of your dashboard.
Alternatively, you can access your entire Keplr staking dashboard here.
Alternatively, if you are already on the Keplr dashboard, to stake click on the 'Stake' tab on the left hand side of the dashboard.
Once there, you will see three steps highlighted in the pink box in the screenshot below.

Then, repeat the same steps to find the Chorus One validator.
Once you've chosen the Chorus One validator, select how many REGEN tokens you wish to stake, then click the 'Stake' button at the bottom of the screen.
Clicking on Stake will take you to Keplr wallet for approval. Approve the transaction and you will be able to see your stake.
Note: If you are using a Ledger hardware wallet, you will need to have the wallet connected, unlocked, and approve the transaction there.
Please note that there is a 21 day unbonding process (also known as unstaking) for REGEN.
During this period your stake no longer earns rewards and cannot be transferred, exchanged, or spent.
However, you can cancel the unstaking process if you wish without penalty.
5. Claiming Rewards
After some time you will see rewards accumulating in your wallet.
This can be easiest to view from the Keplr dashboard.
You can simply go to the Keplr dashboard to claim them by selecting 'Claim' and approving the transaction.
You will see all rewards available from all networks you are staking with.
You can choose to claim all pending rewards or select which networks you specifically want to claim rewards for.
6. Unstaking your REGEN
If you wish to unstake your REGEN tokens, you can do so from the same interface in Keplr that you used to stake.
Either go to the Keplr dashboard or manage your asset directly from the browser extension window.
Simply click on the validator you wish to unstake from and you will be prompted with the following screen.
Please note that REGEN undergoes a 21 day unbonding period when unstaking.
To proceed, click on 'Unstake' and follow the prompts to select the amount of REGEN you wish to unstake.
Then confirm and sign the transaction in your wallet.
And that's it! Your REGEN tokens will begin unbonding which you can track from your Keplr dashboard under the Staking tab.
You can view and manage all ongoing unstaking transactions (undelegations) from your Keplr dashboard and cancel them if you change your mind.
After the unbonding period is complete you will be able to transact with your unstaked REGEN tokens again!
