Unstaking a node will not yield a separate transaction on the blockchain, so to verify that the POKT was sent to the output address, you will need to query the blockchain manually. [Learn more](/node/staking/#unstaking).

### Where do my staked funds go when I send a stake command?

When you send a stake command, your funds are moved to one of the protocol-owned account addresses responsible for managing aggregated staked funds, known as pools. There are separate pool addresses for staked nodes and apps.

Staked Nodes Pool Address:
- Pool Name: nodeTypes.StakedPoolName
- Address: 8ef97b488e66a2b2e89a3b4999549816768910fb

Staked Apps Pool Address:
- Pool Name: appTypes.StakedPoolName
- Address: 63533fb8f43b4883a1f37265f1561ce7b1c6c307

Example of a pool:

```code
{
"app_staked": "6115776140835",
"dao": "85404378779681",
"node_staked": "888675724041371",
"total": "1577387511505541",
"total_staked": "980195878961887",
"total_unstaked": "597191632543654"
}
```

The funds remain in the pool during the staking period. When you initiate an unstaking process, the funds are moved back from the pool to your staking account.

To check the pool balances, query ```pocket query supply``` using the [CLI](https://docs.pokt.network/node/tutorials/zero-to-node/software-install/#install-dependencies).
