Staking

Staking is the process of locking up cryptocurrency in a blockchain network to support its operations, such as validating transactions and securing the network. In return, participants earn rewards, often in the form of additional tokens. It’s a key component of proof-of-stake (PoS) systems and helps incentivize honest behavior in decentralized ecosystems.
