What amount of eGold can I delegate?
There is a minimum of 10 eGold and no maximum.
What are the Waiting List rewards and how are they distributed?

The calculation and distribution occur each Monday. A snapshot is taken each Sunday at 23:59:59 UTC. Rewards are then calculated and distributed on Monday.

You can delegate at any time. Each delegation will be considered for the rewards calculation based on the amount and time of sending.
