Pool of Stake

What Pool of Stake does

Pool of Stake Ltd is a private, independent blockchain validator founded in 2018 and registered in Switzerland (Lugano), operating with 1–10 employees under legal entity Pool of Stake Ltd (Registration ID LLC2200000106). The company runs validator ("baker") infrastructure on the Tezos (XTZ) network and, per its website, on multiple blockchains, earning revenue by charging a commission fee on staking rewards distributed to delegators. Its core product is a delegation-based staking service accessible directly from any Tezos-compatible wallet via a four-step self-serve flow that requires no account creation or KYC.

The technical stack centers on redundant server infrastructure paired with 24/7 active monitoring, which the company reports delivers >99.9% validator uptime. Pool of Stake markets three operational pillars: high availability, competitive commission fees, and full on-chain transparency (all reward and performance data being publicly auditable on the Tezos blockchain). The go-to-market motion is product-led and global — there are no intermediary platforms, no sales team, and no named customer accounts; user acquisition occurs organically within the Tezos staking community.

Revenue mechanics are transaction-based: as a baker, the company earns a percentage of block rewards each cycle, with the residual distributed pro-rata to delegators. Specific commission rates, total assets staked, revenue figures, and management team composition are not disclosed in any source material. The firm has not raised disclosed funding, has no parent company, and reports no subsidiaries, partnerships, awards, certifications, or regulatory actions.
