Planbetter is a self-service Stacking pool built on the Stacks blockchain that enables users to earn native Bitcoin rewards by delegating STX—without needing to meet the minimum threshold for solo Stacking. With a focus on decentralization, transparency, and open infrastructure, Planbetter is designed to be a trust-minimized solution that doesn’t require wrapped tokens or intermediaries.
The pool is operated by Bumblebee and has supported thousands of stackers across dozens of cycles. Users retain full custody of their tokens while delegating Stacking power to Planbetter’s smart contract.
Key Features
Non-custodial: STX stays in your wallet. Delegation is done via smart contract; Planbetter never holds your funds.
Native BTC rewards: Earnings are converted from PoX Bitcoin rewards and sent in sats directly to your designated BTC address.
Self-managed: Users can monitor, re-delegate, or revoke delegation at any time. The minimum to stack is just 200 STX.
Transparent operations: Run independently of large entities or foundations; Planbetter operates its own Stacks node, Bitcoin node, and Mempool explorer.
How Planbetter Works in Leather
Leather users can delegate STX to Planbetter’s pool by selecting it from the Stacking interface. Once delegated, your STX is stacked automatically each cycle, and rewards are distributed in Bitcoin after the cycle ends.

Notes
A 5% fee is deducted from rewards per cycle to cover infrastructure costs.
Rewards are viewable on stackingrewards.com.
You must delegate before the start of a new cycle (approx. 100 blocks in advance).
Token unlock occurs automatically after the cycle completes.
