A sustainable way to grow money

Staking and earning are used interchangeably throughout this article, just like coin and token. Binance terminology uses SimpleEarn, SOL/ETF Staking, AlphaEarn, Subscribe, and Redeem.

Staking is almost like the reverse of a traditional bank loan. Instead of you taking a loan from the bank and paying mortgage fees to the bank, you are the one lending your money to the bank, and they pay you interest for doing so. That is the general idea in a nutshell.

Token staking means that you are the validator, and your staked tokens help validate transactions and secure the blockchain network. You earn rewards from the network (or DEX, i.e., Binance) for using your tokens while taking on a small mitigated risk by doing so.
