# iris tx staking delegate
Delegate tokens to a validator.
iris tx staking delegate [validator-addr] [amount] [flags]
iris tx staking delegate <iva...> <amount> --chain-id=irishub --from=<key-name> --fees=0.3iris
# iris tx staking unbond

Transfer delegation from one validator to another.
TIP
There is no unbonding time during the redelegation, so you will not miss the rewards. But you can only redelegate once per validator, until a period (= unbonding time) exceed.
