XTZ rewards after placement will be based on a daily rating and will be distributed monthly. The announcement said that the first distribution of funds will be completed by December 19, 2019.
In addition, in the following months, the distribution of XTZ rewards will be completed by the 20th of each month.

In order to qualify for a staking reward, each user must have a minimum of 1 XTZ.
Coinbase also previously made XTZ stating available to all U.S. users. Coinbase initially offered the XTZ betting service only to institutional clients.
