Staking is more than passive income. Locking your coins helps secure the network and validate blocks, earning you rewards. In PoS chains, validators are incentivized to act honestly, so your stake serves as a security deposit. Yields range 5–10% APY and can be compounded via derivatives. Beware lock‑up periods, slashing risk, and network health. Every coin you stake strengthens decentralization and your wallet.
