Simply said “We provide the chance of big gains for decent folks in the Cardano Staking Eco-System”.
Our mission is the game-changer for Cardano delegators. If you stake 1000 ADA with our pool and we are saturated enough to mint multiple blocks, you may be rewarded with by up to triple, meaning 3000 ADA for a single epoch! Classic staking model would let you wait cca 29 years to reach the same sum.
Oh yes, we have.
It is simple & convenient -> select a pool mix of “Standard Rewards” and “Managed Rewards” according to your preference (DIOx posters link), stake & collect rewards (link to the landing page). We will announce delegators with Managed Rewards on the regular basis.
Cluster has 2 owners: Igor and Miro. Our expertise is around infrastructure, networking, security, system administration, marketing, loyalty and rewards management, accounting, and financial controlling. We also work with local companies and their professionals to brush our services and loyalty system to the perfection.
Big rewards are our speciality. We recommend staking with DIO4, pool built for big gains.
Beginning Feb 28th 2022 the Austrian government applies new model of taxing crypto gains (crypto exchange for fiat or incoming rewards). Such earnings, no matter of what time these were acquired, will be taxed by 27.5%. It is expected to see similar taxation models in other European countries or parts of the world. We want to make the process easier for our delegators and invite them to stake with DIO4 pool. Taxing the one-shot gain is easier than standard epoch-based small rewards.
Classic Ouroboros mechanism distributes rewards proportionally to the amount of stake in the stake pool. We want to level-up the process of rewards distribution and give delegators a chance of incoming extra rewards through the mechanism of the community participation.
We are committed to treat every stakeholder fairly and equally. Delegator selection is automated and without any influence. We also disallow ourselves from any direct participation, meaning we don’t stake our ADA with DIOx pools. We also don’t provide managed rewards to the Cardano Foundation (CF) and Input-Output Global (IOG), should they ever decide to stake with Dionysus Pool Cluster (sorry Charles).
We are invested in number of high-street marketing campaigns. Having the rewards model spinning around competition, with beginning delegators, the premium care, etc., we need to have enough voice and presence on the market.
Cardano is a proof-of-stake distributed ledger technology. It is the first blockchain platform that has been built on the peer-review research. Its capabilities assure that Cardano is here to stay, to provide security, sustainability and decentralized applications and services. Main features of Cardano allow business and individuals to transact, exchange, govern and grow.
Staking is the protocol-based activity that proofs you as an owner of Cardano coins. Such participation in the Cardano network is rewarded repetitively in the end of each epoch (cca. every 5 days). Staking Cardano never locks your assets nor your wallets – unlike e.g., ETH2.0 that freezes staked assets for months (years?).
Cardano stake pool is a node that provides blockchain services to the Cardano network. In return, the pool is tasked to mint blocks and provides rewards to its delegators.
Staking Cardano entitles delegators to receive a passive income. Other pools reward their delegators between 4.0% - 5.5% of their stake per year. We have a broader scale than that. Our “Managed Rewards Distribution” system randomly selects a delegator on the principle of proportional stake owned to the overall stake in the pool. Selected delegator is provided with extra reward – try to guess why we call this reward a Moon-bag.
This number depends on multiple factors, like circulation supply, staked assets and amount of successfully minted blocks. Looking to a specific period, there were cca. 14.8 million ADA distributed for epoch 300.
We recommend staking via certified wallets Daedalus or Yoroi. Search for pools DIO, DIO1, DIO2, DIO3 or DIO4. Detailed steps are available here.
Golden crypto rule says: “Not your keys, not your coins” – we don’t recommend staking on any crypto exchange.
You can stake directly on Exchange, lots of exchanges like *Banainance* offer such service. Usually, their fees are higher and for less of the service that would be provided by any other pool. Not only you don’t have 100% control over “your assets”, but these are also locked.
We’ve applied a unique method of the “Managed Stake Distribution”, that puts together aspects like:
Your chance is proportional to the ratio of your stake to the total stake in the stake pool. This way we are fair to big delegators, but we also give a fair shot to small and medium delegators for extra rewards.
Selected delegator is announced and paid out, regularly in 24hrs after the epoch end. By the time we will implement necessary automating instruments, so please have a patience.
Providing that associated stake pool minted at least one block and your stake address hasn’t been selected for the Managed Rewards Distribution, then it had to be somebody else. You will still receive “Standard Rewards” according to the pool setup. Stay with us, stake with us and wait for your lucky day.
There are multiple ways how to increase your chances:
Reason 1: Unlike the boring Ouroboros, our mission gives big delegators a solid opportunity on appreciation of their portfolio, while they enjoy some fun and rivalry with others.
Reason 2: You will be provided with monthly newsletter.
Reason 3: You will be provided with annual rewards of premium NFTs that were carefully selected by our marketeers
Premium delegators will receive premium content via emails and wallets. Every big delegator will receive an exclusive monthly newsletter with pools statistics, staking hints, news, NFTs, micro and macro analysis on the blockchain, QAs and others. We are kindly asking such delegators to subscribe at “business AT dionysus DASH pool DOT i AND o” and indicate your staking address. You will be requested to proof the address ownership by the bilateral ADA exchange. We respect delegators’ privacy and will never initiate any networking attempts between delegators.
There isn’t a pool of preference for big delegators. Ask yourself how much you’d like to mix the ratio of “Regular Rewards” and chance for the “Managed Rewards”. Then select one or more pools from the Dionysus Pool Cluster & enjoy being in the community.
Your chance to get selected is proportional to the ratio of your stake to the total ADA staked in the pool. Higher your stake, higher is the chance for you to be selected for the Managed Rewards Distribution (Caution: Whale fights may occur).
