[DeFiUpdates] Zama's Staking Feature Launches on Mainnet

Zama, a cryptography company specializing in Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), has launched its staking feature on the mainnet. According to Foresight News, users who participated in Zama's public auction will be able to claim and stake their tokens starting February 2. The Zama protocol utilizes a proof-of-stake mechanism, with operators divided into two categories: FHE nodes responsible for encrypted computation and Key Management System (KMS) nodes responsible for user threshold decryption. Currently, there are 18 operators, including 5 FHE nodes and 13 KMS nodes. In terms of reward distribution, FHE nodes receive 40% of the rewards, while KMS nodes receive 60%. Token holders can share in the rewards by staking their tokens with operators, with an unstaking period of 7 days.
