What is staking and why do many see it as passive income in crypto?
When I first heard the word staking, I thought it was something super technical. But after researching, I understood that it is actually something very interesting (and accessible).
Staking is like putting your cryptocurrencies to "work" while you keep them stored. Instead of leaving them unused, you lock them for a period in a network (like Ethereum, Solana, etc.) and, in return, you receive rewards.
It's similar to when you leave money in a fixed deposit at the bank, but in this case, you do it within the crypto ecosystem and with more control and transparency.
That said, like everything in crypto, it’s not magic: there are risks, and it is crucial to know where you stake and with which currency.
I am starting to explore this calmly, without rush.
Are you already staking?
Do you see it as an option for the long term?
