Staking

What is Staking

Staking provides coin holders the ability to earn currency just by holding the coins.

The best one-line characterization: "Staking Isn’t Just a Way to Earn Crypto Money – And It Shouldn’t Be."

Staking is made possible as more and more cryptocurrencies transition their mining algorithms to be Proof-of-Stake based algorithms. The idea for this method of mining was first introduced in a white paper in 2012.
