Staking
The process of locking cryptocurrency in a Proof of Stake network to support block validation and earn rewards. Stakers delegate or lock their tokens with validators and receive staking yields, typically ranging from 3-15% annually. Staked assets may be subject to a lock-up or unbonding period.
