Soft staking is a mechanism in blockchain ecosystems that allows cryptocurrency holders to earn passive income from their tokens without the need to lock them permanently. Unlike traditional staking, soft staking does not require freezing funds in a wallet or delegating them to a validator for a specific period, which provides greater liquidity. Users can withdraw their tokens at any time, minimizing the risk of losing access to their funds. The process involves storing tokens in a compatible wallet, and rewards are calculated proportionally to the number of coins held. Soft staking is popular in DeFi projects, offering flexibility and lower barriers to entry for beginner investors. However, returns may be lower than in traditional staking, and the risk associated with the security of smart contracts still exists. #SoftStaking
