Understanding the differences between White Label and Public Node delegations.
At Chorus One, we offer tailored staking solutions for various needs, including White Label (WL) and Public Node (PN) delegations.
Both options provide secure and reliable staking services, but each is designed for specific use cases. Below, we will cover the key differences to help you decide which solution aligns best with your staking objectives.
For a quick comparison, please see:
White Label delegations provide you with your own custom validator. This brings a host of benefits such as privacy, personal branding, geo-fencing, control of the commission rate, optional governance participation, and the ability to provide a validator service for your customer base if needed.
Exclusive Branding and Control
Clients can brand and market each WL validator as their own staking service, creating a tailored experience for their audience. Alternatively, clients can keep the validators private for an anonymous service.
Complete Commission Fee Control
You can set and manage fee structures and reward distributions to meet your specific objectives, ensuring maximum flexibility and alignment with your business model.
Direct Governance Participation
With your own validator, you can choose to engage in network governance directly, casting votes and influencing protocol decisions as a unique entity. However, if you would prefer to not participate or outsource this to Chorus One, that is completely fine.
Security and Reliability
White Label delegations benefit from Chorus One’s secure and resilient infrastructure, ensuring reliable performance and robust security for all delegators.
Enhanced Privacy
With White Label validators, you minimize potential attack vectors since they aren’t shared with other clients or involve commingling of funds. Additionally, geographical region selection allows for optimized privacy and regulatory compliance.
Detailed Reporting
For all White Label validators, Chorus One offers comprehensive reporting and support for all contracted customers. The cadence and granularity of the reporting can be tailored to your unique business needs.
Public Node delegations allow multiple clients to delegate to publicly accessible Chorus One validator nodes, optimizing for accessibility and simplicity. For those staking a large amount, please discuss with our Sales Team whether more favorable commission rates may be available for your delegation.
Efficient and Accessible Staking
Public Node delegations offer a user-friendly way to stake without the complexities of setting up a dedicated validator. Clients can delegate their assets and start earning rewards through Chorus One’s infrastructure immediately from a supported custodian or self custodial solution.
There are no token minimums to begin staking.
Lower Operational Costs
By utilizing and existing node managed by Chorus One, Public Node delegations reduce the complexity of staking, making this solution ideal for clients who prioritize simplicity and the ability to hit the ground running.
Security and Reliability
Public Node delegations benefit from Chorus One’s secure and resilient infrastructure, ensuring reliable performance and robust security for all delegators.
Participate in Governance
While Public Node delegators do not participate directly in governance, Chorus One acts as an active, informed participant, ensuring our node supports the best interests, security, and scalability of the network.
Detailed Reporting
For all Chorus One customers whether White Label or Public Node, Chorus One offers comprehensive reporting and support for all contracted customers. The cadence and granularity of the reporting can be tailored to your unique business needs.
If you’re an institution, high-net-worth individual, or enterprise looking for branded staking, control over settings, privacy, customizability, or the ability to provide staking services to your customer base, then a White Label (WL) validator may be right for you.
If you seek an accessible staking solution with a low barrier to entry and reliable returns all backed by Chorus One's robust security model and do not have a unique need for validator-specific settings, then choosing a Public Node (PN) delegation might be most suitable.
