- Soft Staking (also known as **Flexible Staking**) is a service provided by exchanges: users only need to deposit supported tokens in their spot accounts to automatically earn staking rewards, **without locking up assets**, which can be traded or withdrawn at any time.

- **Differences from Traditional Staking**:

- ✅ **No Lock-up Period**: Traditional staking requires a fixed lock-up period (e.g., 30 days), while soft staking is completely flexible.

- ❌ **No On-chain Operations**: Users do not need to delegate nodes or manage keys themselves, as the exchange handles everything. #SoftStaking
