@stacks/stacking

Library for PoX Stacking.

Note: Not all methods are available before the 2.1 fork. These will throw if used on a 2.1 chain.

Installation

npm install @stacks/stacking

Initialization

Initialize a StackingClient to interact with the Stacking contract.

Note: The StackingClient sets its transactions AnchorMode to Any by default.

import { StacksTestnet, StacksMainnet } from '@stacks/network';
import { StackingClient } from '@stacks/stacking';

// for mainnet: const network = new StacksMainnet();
const network = new StacksTestnet();
// the stacks STX address
const address = 'ST3XKKN4RPV69NN1PHFDNX3TYKXT7XPC4N8KC1ARH';
const client = new StackingClient(address, network);

Stack STX

Check stacking eligibility

// a BTC address for reward payouts
const poxAddress = 'mvuYDknzDtPgGqm2GnbAbmGMLwiyW3AwFP';

Delegated stacking

These are the methods for creating the required transactions for delegated stacking:

sequenceDiagram

  Stacks Blockchain-->Pool Operator: Monitored by
  Pool Operator->>Stacks Blockchain: tx: `delegateStackStx`<br>Lock delegated funds
  Pool Operator->>Stacks Blockchain: tx: `stackAggregationCommit`<br>Commit stacking for each cycle

Stacking in a pool

If you are the account owner ("stacker"), you can delegate or revoke delegation rights.

Delegate STX

// STX address of the pool/pool
const delegateTo = 'ST2MCYPWTFMD2MGR5YY695EJG0G1R4J2BTJPRGM7H';
// burn height at which the delegation relationship should be revoked (optional)
const untilBurnBlockHeight = 5000;
// how much to stack, in microSTX
const amountMicroStx = 100000000000n;
// private key for transaction signing
const privateKey = 'd48f215481c16cbe6426f8e557df9b78895661971d71735126545abddcd5377001';

const delegetateResponse = await client.delegateStx({
  amountMicroStx,
  delegateTo,
  untilBurnBlockHeight, // optional
  privateKey,
});

// {
//   txid: '0xf6e9dbf6a26c1b73a14738606cb2232375d1b440246e6bbc14a45b3a66618481',
// }

Revoke delegation

// private key for transaction signing
const privateKey = 'd48f215481c16cbe6426f8e557df9b78895661971d71735126545abddcd5377001';

const revokeResponse = await client.revokeDelegateStx(privateKey);

// {
//   txid: '0xf6e9dbf6a26c1b73a14738606cb2232375d1b440246e6bbc14a45b3a66618481',
// }

Operating a pool / Stacking for others

If you are a pool operator (or wish to stack with someone else's funds), you can stack ("lock up") tokens for your users and commit to stacking participation for upcoming reward cycles. These users need to first "delegate" some or all of their funds to you (the "delegator"). The following examples refer to the "delegator" as pool, but in practice a delegator can also stack for only single or few individuals. Even a group of friends could stack together and share a multi-sig BTC wallet for payouts.

Stack delegated STX

Stack STX, which have been previously delegated to the pool. This step only locks the funds (partial stacking). The pool operator will also need to "commit" to a reward cycle.

import { getNonce } from '@stacks/transactions';
import { StacksTestnet, StacksMainnet } from '@stacks/network';
import { StackingClient } from '@stacks/stacking';

// for mainnet: const network = new StacksMainnet();
const network = new StacksTestnet();
// the stacks STX address
const address = 'ST3XKKN4RPV69NN1PHFDNX3TYKXT7XPC4N8KC1ARH';
// pools would initiate a different client
const poolAddress = 'ST22X605P0QX2BJC3NXEENXDPFCNJPHE02DTX5V74';
// pool private key for transaction signing
const poolPrivateKey = 'd48f215481c16cbe6426f8e557df9b78895661971d71735126545abddcd5377001';
// the BTC address for reward payouts
const poolBtcAddress = 'msiYwJCvXEzjgq6hDwD9ueBka6MTfN962Z';
// how much to stack, in microSTX
const amountMicroStx = 100000000000n;
// block height at which to stack
const burnBlockHeight = 2000;
// number cycles to stack
const cycles = 3;
// if you call this method multiple times in the same block, you need to increase the nonce manually
let nonce = await getNonce(poolAddress, network);
nonce = nonce + 1n;

const poolClient = new StackingClient(poolAddress, network);

const delegetateStackResponses = await poolClient.delegateStackStx({
  stacker: address,
  amountMicroStx,
  poxAddress: poolBtcAddress,
  burnBlockHeight,
  cycles,
  privateKey: poolPrivateKey,
  nonce, // optional
});

// {
//   txid: '0xf6e9dbf6a26c1b73a14738606cb2232375d1b440246e6bbc14a45b3a66618481',
// }

Extend delegated STX

Extend stacking of STX previously delegated to the pool.

// the BTC address for reward payouts
const poolBtcAddress = 'msiYwJCvXEzjgq6hDwD9ueBka6MTfN962Z';
// number of cycles to extend by
const extendCount = 3;
// if you call this method multiple times in the same block, you need to increase the nonce manually
let nonce = await getNonce(poolAddress, network);
nonce = nonce + 1n;

const poolClient = new StackingClient(poolAddress, network);

const delegetateExtendResponses = await poolClient.delegateStackExtend({
  extendCount,
  stacker: address,
  poxAddress: poolBtcAddress,
