Clover Nodes
Welcome to our Cardano Stake Pool!
At Clover Nodes, our objective is to play a vital role in the Cardano ecosystem by actively contributing to network security and decentralization. Our strategy for achieving this involves prioritizing the dependability and profitability of our delegators, all while adhering to industry security standards. Stake with us today and become a part of the CLOVR family!
Stake Pool Features and Highlights
Staking is an important part of the Cardano blockchain, as it helps to secure the network and ensure its integrity. By participating in staking, you are contributing to the maintenance and validation of the blockchain, which is essential for its continued operation. We also offer additional tokens to our delegators by being an official Droperatorz Pool.
Reliable & Cloud-Based
Our servers are optimized for 24/7 operation and hosted on the cloud, which helps ensure the stake pool is consistently available to validate transactions and contribute to the network.
Mithril Signer
Our Mithril signer node seamlessly integrates with the Cardano stake pool operators’ infrastructure. We independently sign ledger states, representing a stake share within the Cardano network. Our role ensures proportional participation in Mithril multi-signature creation, leveraging consensus mechanisms for data integrity.
Secure & Compliant
Our primary block producer is based in Germany and has been optimized to meet security and compliance standards. We take regular steps to update both our nodes and software to safeguard against any potential vulnerabilities. This can provide additional peace of mind for stakers and help to ensure the security and integrity of the pool.
Low Margin & Variable Fee
The CLOVR stake pool aims to provide the community the most rewards by keeping the variable margin fee (percentage of rewards earned by the pool) as low as possible.
Official Droperatorz Pool
By staking with our stake pool, you also gain automatic access to exclusive rewards in the form of additional tokens for your delegation. Our stake pool provides a diverse range of bonus tokens, ensuring a rewarding experience for our delegators. To claim these extra tokens, please visit DripDropz.io and enter your stake address.

Cardano is a decentralized and open-source blockchain platform that was created to provide a more secure and sustainable ecosystem for the development and execution of smart contracts and decentralized applications (dApps). It was designed to address some of the issues faced by other blockchain networks, such as scalability and security.
Cardano uses a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism, called Ouroboros, which enables fast and efficient transactions on its network. The Cardano platform also features a unique multi-layer architecture that separates the computational layer from the settlement layer, providing added security and flexibility. Cardano's native cryptocurrency is called ADA.
Cardano stake delegation is the process of transferring the right to validate transactions and create new blocks in the Cardano network from an individual to a selected staking pool.
In a proof-of-stake (PoS) network like Cardano, validators are selected randomly from a pool of coin holders who have staked their coins. By delegating your staked coins to a staking pool, you are transferring the right to validate transactions and create new blocks to the pool, which acts on behalf of its members.
Delegation does not transfer ownership of your coins and you still retain control over your funds. You can also choose to un-delegate your coins at any time and switch to a different staking pool if desired.
To incentivize users to stake their coins, the Cardano network rewards stakers with new ADA coins for participating in the network and helping to maintain its security. These rewards are designed to compensate stakers for the resources they are providing to the network and encourage more users to participate in staking.
Cardano stake pool saturation refers to the number of ADA coins that are delegated to a particular stake pool. The more ADA coins that are delegated to a stake pool, the more computing power and resources it has available to perform these functions, and the more likely it is to earn rewards for doing so.
If a stake pool has too many coins delegated to it, it may become saturated and its performance may suffer. On the other hand, if a stake pool has too few coins delegated to it, it may not have enough resources to compete with other stake pools and earn rewards. In general, a stake pool with a moderate level of saturation is likely to offer a good balance between performance and rewards. By monitoring the saturation levels of different stake pools, you can get a sense of which pools are likely to offer the best returns and make an informed decision when choosing a stake pool to delegate your ADA coins to.
Staking in Cardano is a process of holding and locking a certain amount of Cardano (ADA) coins in a wallet to support the network's consensus mechanism and earn rewards.
Cardano uses a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism, where instead of mining, validation of transactions and creation of new blocks is done by "validators." Validators are selected randomly from a pool of ADA coin holders who have staked their coins. The more coins you have staked, the higher the chances of being selected as a validator and thus earning rewards.
Staking in Cardano offers several benefits to its holders, including:
Passive income: By staking your ADA coins, you can earn passive income in the form of staking rewards. This can provide a source of additional income without having to actively trade or sell your coins.
Support for the network: By staking your coins, you are helping to support the Cardano network, increasing its security and stability. This is because validators are responsible for verifying transactions and creating new blocks.
Increased decentralization: Staking helps to distribute network ownership and decision-making power, making the Cardano network more decentralized.
Increased security: By staking your coins, you are incentivized to act in the best interest of the network, ensuring its security and stability.
Easy to participate: Staking in Cardano is relatively easy to participate in, and you do not need any technical expertise or specialized hardware to do so.
Potential for higher rewards: Staking pools with higher stakes and more active validators tend to receive a larger share of block rewards, potentially leading to higher rewards for stakers.
Protection against market volatility: Staking can provide a more stable return compared to actively trading your coins, as it is less susceptible to market volatility.
Overall, staking in Cardano provides a way for holders to earn rewards while supporting the network, increasing decentralization, and potentially reducing the impact of market volatility.
Your reward will usually be visible within 15-20 days. In case your delegation registration with Clover Nodes took place 20 days ago, you just need to wait for the transaction blocks to be validated. While smaller pools may provide rewards more often but in smaller amounts than larger pools, you can have faith in the protocol's reward guarantee.
To incentivize users to stake their coins, the Cardano network rewards stakers with new ADA coins for participating in the network and helping to maintain its security. These rewards are designed to compensate stakers for the resources they are providing to the network and encourage more users to participate in staking.
