# Staking Transactions

## Delegating to a Validator

You can delegate tokens to a validator using the following command:

```bash
./hmy --node="https://api.s0.t.hmny.io" staking delegate \
    --delegator-addr [ONE ADDRESS] --validator-addr [ONE ADDRESS] \
    --amount [AMOUNT] --passphrase
```

The CLI will ask for the passphrase for the `delegator-addr` keystore file.

`--delegator-addr` is the ONE address of the delegator **(string)**

`--validator-addr` is the ONE address of the validator **(string)**

`--amount` is the number of ONE tokens to delegate to the validator **(float)**

{% hint style="info" %}
As a validator, if you want to increase your stake, you will have to delegate to yourself. For delegating to your own validator, `delegator-addr` and `validator-addr` will be the same.
{% endhint %}

## Undelegating from a Validator

You can un-delegate tokens from a validator using the following command:

```bash
./hmy --node="https://api.s0.t.hmny.io" staking undelegate \
    --delegator-addr [ONE ADDRESS] --validator-addr [ONE ADDRESS] \ 
    --amount [AMOUNT] --passphrase
```

The CLI will ask for the passphrase for the `delegator-addr` keystore file.

`--delegator-addr` is the ONE address of the delegator **(string)**

`--validator-addr` is the ONE address of the validator **(string)**

`--amount` is the number of ONE tokens to un-delegate **(float)**

{% hint style="info" %}
As a validator, for un-delegating from your own validator, `delegator-addr` and `validator-addr` will be the same.
{% endhint %}

## Collecting Rewards

You can collect your block rewards with the following command:

```bash
./hmy --node="https://api.s0.t.hmny.io" staking collect-rewards \
--delegator-addr [ONE ADDRESS] --passphrase
```

The CLI will prompt your for the passphrase of the delegation account.

`--delegator-addr` is the account to collect rewards for

{% hint style="warning" %}
You can only collect ALL of your block rewards at once, not partially.
{% endhint %}

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.harmony.one/home/general/ecosystem/wallets/harmony-cli/staking-transactions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
