Typical Exchange/Big Pool
Big pools often charge higher fixed fees and take a percentage of your rewards off the top every epoch. They contribute to network centralization.
Don’t just store your ADA; put it to work securing the network.
Delegate to BEACN and choose local, independent infrastructure over centralized giants.
Fixed Fees: 170 ₳ (Minimum) | Margin: 0%
Your delegation is a vote for decentralization. When BEACN mints blocks, you keep more of the reward because we charge the protocol minimum — no rent-seeking.
Big pools often charge higher fixed fees and take a percentage of your rewards off the top every epoch. They contribute to network centralization.
We charge the absolute protocol minimum. This means 100% of the remaining rewards go directly to our delegators. Built for the long haul.
BEACN runs on dedicated, high-performance hardware (32GB RAM, NVMe storage) for maximum uptime and fast block propagation.
Single Pool Operator best practices, including cold storage for pool keys and 24/7 monitoring.
Growing pools feel different than saturated ones. Here’s the honest view of “today vs. where we’re heading.”
The Dynamic: High variance / “lumpy” rewards
While stake is growing, block production can feel like a lottery: quiet epochs followed by lucky epochs.
The Upside: When we mint blocks, rewards are split among fewer people and we take 0% margin.
The Dynamic: Consistent & optimized
As stake grows, blocks become more consistent.
The Upside: With 170 ₳ fixed and 0% margin, you mathematically keep more over time than a typical corporate pool.
Many pools raise fees once they get popular. We will not.
The 170 ₳ fixed fee and 0% margin is not a bait-and-switch rate. It is the operating model of this pool.
Delegating is simple. It takes 3 steps, and your ADA remains in your full control the entire time.
Get your ADA off the exchange and into a real Cardano wallet where you own the keys (like Vespr, Lace, or Eternl below). Remember: Never share your seed phrase.
Send your ADA from Coinbase/Binance to your new wallet “Receive” address. This unlocks your staking and voting power.
Go to the Staking/Delegation tab in your wallet. Search for ticker BEACN. Click Delegate. Done. You can spend your ADA freely while it is staked.
Delegation is the mission. The Genesis coin is a limited commemorative drop for early supporters — built in the same “bare-minimum” spirit as BEACN fees.
We’re giving away 50 Genesis BEACN Coins. You get the classic BEACN PFP plus the Genesis BEACN Coin (.glb) — a real 3D asset that works in compatible viewers.
Minting is optional — delegating to BEACN is how you directly support decentralization.
Classic BEACN PFP + Genesis BEACN Coin (.glb) 3D asset.
A small, commemorative “early supporter” drop — simple, fun, and aligned with the BEACN mission.
Delegation is what strengthens Cardano decentralization — the token is just optional community flavor.
Flashy but honest: minting is optional — delegating to BEACN is how you directly support decentralization.
BEACN is actively developing Ledger Scrolls, an open-source standard for storing timeless, immutable data on the Cardano blockchain.
As a proof-of-concept for eternal preservation, we have successfully uploaded the World English Bible entirely on-chain.
Cardano was built to be decentralized. But when everyone stakes with the same giant exchange pools, the network weakens.
BEACN is an independent, Chicago-based Single Pool Operator. We aren’t a faceless corporation; we run serious infrastructure to support the network we believe in.
By delegating to BEACN, you aren’t just chasing yield — you’re actively voting for a robust, decentralized future. And with our 0% margin guarantee, when we win, you win the most.
