Shouldering the Decentralization of the World
An independent Cardano stake pool, making blocks since day one of Shelley in 2020. Fees start at 0%, and ATLAS votes openly in Cardano governance.
Your ADA stays in your wallet. You can change pools any time.

Cardano has thousands of stake pools. Here's why ATLAS is a good home for your stake.
ATLAS has been running since the first days of staking on Cardano. That's 22,110 blocks so far, and counting.
The margin is 0% on ATLAS 2 and 0.8% on ATLAS. Each pool takes a fixed fee of 340 ADA per epoch from the pool's rewards, never from your wallet.
Neither pool is full, so your rewards are never cut. ATLAS 2 has the most room.
Both pools vote on protocol changes, and the ATLAS DRep has cast 35 votes since 2024. You'll find the latest ATLAS votes below.
ATLAS is one independent operator, not an exchange and not a pool farm. Stake spread over many small pools is what keeps Cardano decentralized.
Same operator, same care. If you're new, pick ATLAS 2: it takes no margin and has plenty of room to grow.

Both pools use the ticker ATLAS, and other pools may too. Always check the pool ID.
Delegating takes one transaction in your own wallet. Your ADA never leaves it, and you can change your mind any time.
This button opens your wallet app with ATLAS 2 already chosen. Your wallet builds the delegation and shows it to you, and you confirm it there. Optimized for Eternl.
Delegate with your browser wallet, or scan a code with your phone. Either way, your wallet shows the delegation and you confirm it there. Optimized for Eternl.
Nothing happens? Your wallet can't open this link yet. Use the 3 steps below.
Any Cardano wallet with staking works, for example Eternl, Lace, Yoroi, Vespr or Typhon.
Go to staking or delegation and search for either ATLAS pool. Several pools can share a ticker, so check that the pool ID matches one of the two below.
Sign the delegation. The first time, your wallet pays a 2 ADA deposit to register your stake key (you get it back if you ever unregister), plus a fee of about 0.2 ADA.

ATLAS will never ask for your seed phrase and never messages you first. Anyone who does is a scammer.
Cardano has no miners. Stake pools take turns making blocks, picked at random in proportion to their stake. Here's what keeps a pool like ATLAS running.
Cardano works in epochs of 5 days. Your first rewards arrive after 15 to 20 days. After that, they come every 5 days, all by themselves.
At any time during the epoch.
When the epoch changes, your stake is recorded.
Your stake now helps ATLAS make blocks.
The rewards for those blocks are worked out.
Rewards land in your wallet. From now on, every 5 days.
Rewards are staked automatically, so they keep growing with you.
The keys that control the pools are made and kept offline, with encrypted backups. The servers are locked down and do one job only.
Monitoring and alerts run around the clock, so problems get fixed fast. Updates happen at quiet moments, never when a block is due.
Every epoch, ATLAS shares its results on Telegram, the good ones and the bad ones. Mistakes get explained, and every vote is public.
ATLAS has been producing blocks and securing the Cardano network since day one. Come join! Wolfgang
Cardano is run on chain. Both pools vote on protocol changes, and the ATLAS DRep votes for the ADA holders who delegate their voting power to it. You'll find the latest ATLAS votes below.

DRep: No
Why: No to this version, not to OpenZeppelin. The treasury already funded a similar contracts library from IO (DevX, due Q3 2026). A new proposal needs a gap analysis, a clear scope, no 20% upfront payment and real adoption goals. A revised proposal is welcome.

Since 2025, a wallet needs a DRep choice before it can withdraw rewards. In your wallet's governance or voting section, you can pick the ATLAS DRep with the ID below, any other DRep, or abstain.

Yes. Delegating only lends your stake's weight to the pool for making blocks. Your ADA never leaves your wallet, nobody else can spend it, and nothing is locked.
Yes. You can spend your ADA or switch pools whenever you like. You keep earning with your old pool until the new one takes over, so no rewards get lost.
After 15 to 20 days, then every 5 days. The reward timeline above shows why.
Each pool takes a fixed fee of 340 ADA per epoch from the rewards of the whole pool, plus a margin: 0.8% for ATLAS, 0% for ATLAS 2. Everything else goes to the delegators. Nothing is ever taken from your wallet.
A pool can hold a limited amount of stake, about 78 million ADA today. Above that, rewards drop for everyone in the pool. ATLAS 2 has plenty of room.
Since 2025, a wallet needs a DRep choice before it can withdraw rewards. You can pick the ATLAS DRep, any other DRep, or abstain. Your voting power follows your choice, and your ADA stays yours.
No. Rewards are added automatically and are staked too, so they grow along with your ADA.
No. You only need a little ADA for the 2 ADA deposit and the transaction fee.
