Change admin address

Overview​

This guide describes how to change your admin address, which is the address you use to manage your profile and staking activities, and to claim self-staking rewards.

Key points:

  • You will not receive staking rewards on the day when you change the admin address, but you will still earn your commission as normal.
  • Staking rewards will be sent to your new admin address starting the next day.
  • Your current stake amount will be automatically transferred to the new admin address.
  • Any unclaimed rewards from your old admin address will remain there, and you can claim them at any time by logging in with the old admin address.

Change your admin address​

  1. Open the Validator Dashboard, then go to your account, and then click My profile.

  2. In the Admin Address field, click the edit icon.

  3. Paste your new admin address.

  4. Save the changes.

There's a cooldown period of 24 hours after changing the admin address. That means you will not able to modify the admin address again until 24 hours after the last change.
