Hello friends! Can you tell me where to put OP’s tokens in the steak? And will my delegation disappear if I put it in a steak?

Hello,@irene, you can choose your Delegator here, Voter on Agora
when you delegate to an address, the OP in your wallet doesn’t disappear, it’s still there, it’s just that the vote is delegated!

You can create your own delegate profile or choose to delegate it to someone on AGORA: https://vote.optimism.io/

and what’s “steak” ? or maybe stake? :smiley:

Hi Irene,
When you delegate your OP tokens, you’re essentially giving someone else the voting power associated with your token balance. This voting power is tied directly to the tokens held in your wallet. So, if you later use or transfer some of those tokens—say, by engaging with a DeFi protocol—the balance in your wallet decreases, and consequently, the delegated voting power will decrease as well.

Hey there! :cut_of_meat: → stake? :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

If you’re referring to staking your OP tokens, no — your delegation doesn’t disappear. But it can be affected depending on how the staking mechanism works.

Currently on Optimism, delegation and staking are separate unless you’re interacting with a specific contract or protocol that changes your delegation settings.

Best practice: check if the protocol you’re staking with overrides delegation — but by default, just staking tokens doesn’t remove existing delegation.

Hope that clears it up! :magnifying_glass_tilted_left::sparkles:
And hey, great reminder that even governance can be deliciously confusing :sweat_smile:

Love u all comunity

Hey @Rudy09 thanks for explanation but lemme clear
OP has no formal staking mechanism. Delegates are for governance voting only, with no yield. If you are ‘staking’ OP in the DeFi protocol, it is only in the context of liquidity mining or yield farming, not network staking
