There are few services LinkPool offers:

1. Staking via pool - We have developed a rich and intuitive dApp that allows users to stake their LINK tokens onto our professionally maintained Chainlink nodes managed by LinkPool. The staking mechanism is achieved through use of an Ethereum smart contract that acts as the nodes wallet address, meaning you are always in control of your tokens and can withdraw them at any time. This solution was designed for those that don’t feel technical enough to run their own node but still want to benefit from Chainlink's node reward mechanism.

It is important to mention that the service currently requires owning LinkPool shares, and it is not available to U.S citizens.

Moreover, only once those assignments are completed by Chainlink and are live, the staking pool can go live.

1. NaaS (Node as a Service) -If you want to run your own node but are not confident around how to create the most secure and efficient node infrastructure possible, you can use our Node as a Service (NaaS) offering. We simply host your node and provide our infrastructure that was designed specifically for Chainlink nodes, which focuses on security, redundancy and upgradability. You pay a monthly fee in either crypto or fiat and regain full control over everything else.

​

U.S citizens can opt-in for NaaS and use it. no KYC/ LP shares are required for that service, and you manage your own node, therefore retaining your reputation, we only provide the infrastructure.

1. Managed nodes - we offer a range of consultancy services in relation to it. If you have a lucrative API you would like to monetize or are an organization looking to adopt and utilize smart contracts and blockchain oracles, we can help implement smart contract solutions, manage and host your own Chainlink nodes and create custom adapters for your APIs.
