Here you have a clear and complete explanation about soft staking:
---
🌐 What is soft staking?
Soft staking or “liquid staking” allows you to earn rewards for holding cryptocurrencies without needing to lock them in a contract for a fixed period. You leave the asset on a platform (wallet, exchange, or pool) and:
You generate passive income (as if you were receiving “interest”).
You can withdraw or use your funds at any time.
Unlike traditional staking, there are no penalties for disengaging, nor waiting periods to recover the assets.

How does it work?
1. You deposit your tokens on a compatible platform.
2. The platform delegates or stakes them.
3. You receive rewards distributed periodically (daily or monthly).
4. You can sell your tokens or trade at any time.
For example, on CEX.IO, you just need to keep the “stakeable” tokens in your account: you can exchange or withdraw them without needing to unlock.
