Blaze wallet

What is Blaze (BLZE)?

Governance and staking are two different tokens in the BlazeStake system, and mixing them up is the usual stumble. The liquid staking token is bSOL, which is what you get when you deposit SOL. BLZE is the separate governance and incentive token of the protocol: holding it does not stake anything, does not delegate to a validator and does not convert back into SOL at a redemption rate. Its role is voting weight over how the protocol directs stake and distributes incentives.

BLZE is a plain SPL token on Solana. That means a token account on your address, a small SOL rent deposit behind it, and SOL paying for every transfer. One feature of BlazeStake worth knowing even if you only hold BLZE: depositors can push their stake to the default pool spread across many validators, or aim it at a validator they choose.

A governance token is typically bought once and then left alone for long stretches, with occasional votes and nothing else. Supported networks in Tangem (1): Solana.

That pattern suits a card: the private key is generated inside the chip and never comes out, and a second identical card kept somewhere else restores the same address if the first one is lost. A seed phrase remains an option you can switch on, not something you are forced to write down. Holding BLZE this way means the key is ready on the rare day a vote matters and inert the rest of the time.
