Kaia: New contract opens for KAIA staking - 23 Nov 2026
Kaia opens KAIA staking on a new contract on November 23, 2026, as the network transitions to Permissionless. Users migrate by unstaking from the current contract, waiting about seven days for unstaking to complete, and then staking on the new version.All stakers must complete this process to move to the new staking system. The unstaking step briefly makes their previously staked KAIA withdrawable, creating a withdrawal point between the two contracts.Moving takes two steps. Unstake from the current contract once the snapshot block passes, which takes about 7 days, then stake on the new version from Nov 23.Finish before block 235,526,400, around Dec 20, 10:17 KST.
