RFP 1 | Particl Cold Staking Pool
Create a cold staking pool for users to delegate their staking power to a pool operator in exchange for smaller payouts. Once completed, the code shall be open-sourced for anyone to inspect/audit.
What is Cold Staking?
Cold staking is enabled by smart-contract functionality and lets users securely delegate staking powers to “staking nodes” which contain no coin. The purpose of these “staking nodes” is to provide a dedicated resource connected to the Particl blockchain and stake on behalf of another wallet without being able to spend its coins.
Cold staking nodes are intended to be used in combination with cold, hardware and paper wallets as well as multisig addresses, making it possible to stake “offline” coins with no risk of being hacked or exposing your public key to the network. Staking nodes can be set up on any device, secure or not, such as public/cloud servers, virtual machines or RPIs.
Scope
The recent cold staking hardfork has enabled the possibility to set up cold staking pools where operators cannot run with their users’ coins.
