# BNB Chain staking

> Delegate BNB to a validator on BNB Chain, or hold liquid slisBNB through Lista, both with a 7-day unbonding period.

Delegate BNB to a validator on BNB Chain (BSC), or hold slisBNB, a liquid receipt token issued by Lista. Both models share a 7-day unbonding period.

## Yields

| Yield ID | Staking type | Provider | Validator selection |
| - | - | - | - |
| `bsc-bnb-native-staking` | Native | Any active validator | Required |
| [`binance-bnb-slisbnb-staking`](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/slisbnb) | Liquid | Lista | Not applicable |

> [!NOTE]
>
> A second native-staking integration, `binance-bnb-native-staking`, exists in the yield registry but is under maintenance and excluded from live availability. Use `bsc-bnb-native-staking` instead.

## Key facts

| | |
| - | - |
| Network ID | `binance` |
| Staked token | BNB |
| Unbonding / cooldown | 7 days |
| Minimum | 1 BNB (native staking) |
| Rewards | Auto, accrued daily and compounded into the stake |

## Enter and exit

Enter with `amount` (1 BNB minimum) and `validatorAddress`, both required. Exit with `amount` and `validatorAddress` to unstake; the unstaked balance enters the 7-day unbonding period before it can be claimed.

Liquid staking (slisBNB) takes no validator argument; see [Lista slisBNB](/documentation/earn/defi/liquid-staking/slisbnb.md).

## Managing the position

| Action | What it does |
| - | - |
| `CLAIM_UNSTAKED` | Claim the unstaked balance once the 7-day unbonding period completes |
| `RESTAKE` | Redelegate a staked balance to a different validator without unbonding |

## List the live yields

Copy this request to list the staking yields on this network that are enabled for your project. Yield IDs change as markets and networks are added, so query the API rather than hardcoding them.

```bash theme={null}
