What is staking?
To confirm that a proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain is secure and decentralized, some participants in that network “stake” their crypto assets (stake them) to confirm or support the validation of transactions and ensure optimal operation.
Staking offers an opportunity for these participants or “validators and delegators” to earn rewards by locking their coins in cryptocurrency wallets to verify network transactions on a PoS (Proof of Stake) blockchain. This means that holders of a select range of coins will be able to use them to stake directly on Bitpanda and have the potential to earn additional income.
What are the main advantages of staking?
- You can earn more cryptocurrencies
- Staking can be a very profitable* way to earn interest on your crypto asset portfolio and provide an additional source of high-yield income. With Bitpanda, the process is easy and gives you the opportunity to put your wallet to work for you.
- Strengthen network security
- While keeping the PoS blockchain secure may not be your top priority, it is vital to keeping the network efficient and protecting its users, which also includes you.
- It is greener than proof-of-work (PoW) cryptocurrency mining
- Proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchains are considered to be a better option for the environment, as staking rewards participants for verifying transactions based on their staking on the network, unlike PoW networks, that reward miners who are faster at solving computationally complex calculations, which ultimately requires the use of more energy.
