+   - Enter the amount to stake (minimum 100 CLIPS)
+   - Confirm the transaction
+
+3. **Earn Rewards**

+   - Claim rewards anytime via "Claim Rewards" button
+   - Rewards are distributed based on validator performance
+
+### Becoming a Validator
+
+1. **Minimum Requirements**
+   - 10,000 CLIPS minimum stake
+   - Running PaperclipChain validator node
+   - Stable internet connection
+
+2. **Setup Process**
