## **Step 3: Stake DEIN Tokens and Start Earning Rewards**&#x20;

Once you've finalized your staking amount and duration, proceed to stake your DEIN tokens. By doing so, you initiate the staking process and become eligible to earn rewards.&#x20;

You will receive a DEIN Native Staking NFT as a proof of your staking position. It contains all information about your staking, accumulates rewards and can be used in Claims Assessment to participate in [Voting on Claims](/onboarding-guides/how-to-vote.md).
