The cryptocurrency exchange Kraken has launched a Bitcoin staking service through a new integration with Babylon. This service allows users to stake their Bitcoin directly, locking it in a native chain custodial vault. The staked Bitcoin is then delegated to the PoS network through Babylon, with rewards paid in the form of BABY tokens. This mechanism operates entirely on-chain, with staking managed by Bitcoin scripts and cryptographic safeguards to prevent malicious actions. Users can cancel staking at any time, with an unbinding period of about 7 days.
