# EARN LISK BY VOTING FOR DELEGATES
#### A HOW-TO GUIDE FOR BEGINNERS
# 
Hey guys, this guide addresses all LISK owners who let their LISK coins get dusty at exchanges or wallets. Why not vote for delegates and thereby increase your assets? It's really simple and a matter of minutes. Just follow these 3 steps!

##### 1.) Transfer your LISK coins to wallet
If you have stored (or just buyed) your LISK amount at an crypto exchange, transfer it to your LISK wallet. You can either download the official LISK offline wallet at https://lisk.io or create a new online wallet account at https://login.lisk.io


##### 2.) Select your LISK delegate(s)
Login to your wallet and click at "Delegates" (left side). Now you can see the list of 101 delegates ('pools') which are able to forge ('mining') LISK. But **DO NOT** select the first that comes along blindly! Not every delegate who's forging also disburse his LISK! Also consider the percentage of pool's outpayments - between 5% and 100% everything is possible! Don't worry in this regard: you can find a very helpful LISK pool overview at http://tools.mylisk.com/calculator.php

You should also keep an eye on the second list below the upper delegate list. This list contains all delegate 'candidates' which ranking at place #102 and behind. These one can't forge right now, but a few good 50-90% pools are on 'standby' there and may be considered with an upvote. As soon as they reach rank #101 or better, they'll also start forging.

##### 3.) Voting for your delegate(s)
After you've selected your delegates, click '√ Vote' at the top right side of your wallet. Note that you'll be charged with 1 LISK for every vote-'session'. But in return this fee allows you to vote for up to 33 delegates simultaneously - it doesn't rise if you select more than one delegate.

It can take up to an hour until your LISK address appears at your LISK pool(s), but thereafter you can enjoy your daily earnings at the pool(s) statistik pages. Best thing is, you'll keep earning LISK 24x7 while your PC is off and you are asleep! $-:o) Most pools disburse immediately after your assets have reached their payout threshold, which is usually between 1 and 10 LISK - apart from current #1 "thepool". This one pays out at too low amount: at 0.2 LISK. Thats a ***big*** disadvantage for smaller LISK owners because at every payout 0.1 LISK fee will be deducted. Keep this in mind.
