Staking on someone's behalf (for custodians)

There is a limitation the staking address can only perform the following actions (and are visible via the Nym Wallet:

  • Bond on the gateway's or mix node's behalf.
  • Delegate or Un-delegate (to a mix node in order to begin receiving rewards)
  • Claiming the rewards on the account
The staking address has no ability to withdraw any coins from the parent's account.

The staking address must maintain the same level of security as the parent mnemonic; while the parent mnemonic's delegations and bonding events will be visible to the parent owner, the staking address will be the only account capable of undoing the bonding and delegating from the mix nodes or gateway.
