Folks looking to simultaneously trade and stake
DOTUSD should consider Kraken over Coinbase. Like Coinbase, Kraken offers a _bonded_ staking program with a high annual dividend north of 10% and a month long unstaking period. The long unstaking period makes timing exits difficult, and you can't earn while unstaking. Kraken also offers a _flexible_ staking program with annual dividends over 4% and a relatively instant unstaking period. The flexible program is great to sit in a DOT long position picking up a bonus until your exit. You can even set stops and profit targets on flexibly staked positions. Kraken is a no-brainer for DOT trading!
