A Swedish Cardano stake pool, self-hosted on hardware we own in Malmö — 0% margin, running every epoch since 2021, with figures you can verify on-chain. Your ADA never leaves your wallet.
Operated from Malmö, Sweden
GRADA is not a hobby node on a rented VPS. It runs on enterprise hardware we own and operate ourselves, in our own datacenter, by someone who has kept servers online since 1996.
We take no percentage cut of your rewards. The only operator income is Cardano's protocol-enforced minimum fixed cost of 170 ₳ per epoch, deducted from the pool's rewards before distribution — never from your wallet.
Redundant power, redundant networking and hands-on monitoring in a Swedish datacenter. Nodes are watched around the clock so problems get caught before they cost a block.
Cold keys stay off internet-facing machines, KES keys rotate on schedule, three separate firewalls guard the perimeter, and everything is patched and backed up to current best practice.
Cardano's proof of stake needs a rounding error of Bitcoin's energy, and we run low-consumption servers on top of that. Staking here costs the planet close to nothing.
Three decades of running servers and websites with close to 100% uptime — long before blockchain existed. Cardano is simply the newest workload on a very old discipline.
Rewards only scale with pool size up to the protocol's cap. GRADA sits far under it, so nothing you earn here is diluted — and your stake helps decentralise the network.
GRADA produces blocks on Mainnet — and on every public testnet where Cardano's next version is being proven. When an upgrade reaches Mainnet, we have already been running it for months.
Producing blocks since 2021 at 0% margin. Every figure below is read live from the chain — not typed in by us.

Most operators run Mainnet only. We run the whole pipeline, so Cardano's upcoming releases meet our stack long before your ADA does.
A stake pool is only as trustworthy as the person behind it, so here is exactly who that is.
My name is Tommie, and I have worked in IT for over 30 years — hosting servers and websites since 1996 with close to 100% uptime. My background is financial: I trained in finance and built systems for accounting firms, then spent the following decades as Head of Development, Chief Development Officer and Business Developer at companies including Story House Egmont, Biltema and Sopra Steria.
Today I am Research & Development manager at ASSA ABLOY, leading a team of more than 25 developers working on access, security and cryptography. My teams have built payment integrations across the Nordics — Klarna, Swish, PayPal, Nets, Vipps, MobilePay, Autogiro and more — for systems serving roughly 4.4 million customers and around €50 million in annual turnover. GRADA runs to the same standard I hold that work to.
Delegation is non-custodial: your ADA stays in your wallet, stays spendable, and is never locked. You are only pointing its stake weight at a pool — and you can change your mind at any time.
Any major wallet works. Install one, create your wallet, and back up the recovery phrase offline — never share it with anyone, including us.
Open the staking tab and search for the ticker GRADA — or paste the pool ID from the card above for an exact match.
Confirm the delegation. It costs one small network fee (~0.17 ₳) plus a refundable 2 ₳ deposit the first time you register. Rewards then arrive automatically every epoch and compound on their own.
AIADA is our AI-operated Cardano pool, running on the same hardware, in the same datacenter, under the same 0% margin promise — but with the day-to-day operations driven by an AI agent. Same philosophy, different experiment.
There is no support ticket queue here — you reach the person who runs the servers.
