# DOT/KSM Staking

Keystone is fully compatible with Polkadot{.js}. Users can use their Keystone to sign transactions for DOT/KSM staking, governance, account operation and other functions while only using a watch-only wallet for polkadot{.js}. The following instruction below will show the “how to add nominator” feature. Other functions share the similar operation interaction between Keystone and polkadot{.js}.

## **I. Preparation:**

1.[ Creating a Polkadot{.js} Watch-Only Wallet](https://support.keyst.one/3rd-party-wallets/eth-and-web3-wallets-keystone/polkadot.js-polkadot-kusama-with-kesytone).

2\. Sufficient balance on your DOT/KSM address.

3\. Polkadot{.js}: <https://polkadot.js.org/apps/#/explorer>.

## &#x20;II. **Adding Nominator (e.g. DOT)**

1\. Polkadot{.js}: Click \[Network -> Staking]. Select “Account actions'' tab. Click \[+ Nominator].
