    When you stake digital assets, you are essentially locking them up in a wallet to support the network's operations. In return for your contribution, you earn interest on your staked assets. The interest is usually paid out in the form of additional tokens or coins. Staking is a way to participate in the consensus mechanism of a blockchain network and earn passive income. It's a popular option for long-term holders who want to put their assets to work and earn rewards.

    Staking digital assets works by participating in the proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. Instead of mining, which is used in proof-of-work (PoW) blockchains, PoS allows users to validate transactions and create new blocks by staking their tokens. By staking your assets, you help secure the network and maintain its operations. In return, you receive a portion of the transaction fees and newly minted tokens as rewards. The amount of interest you earn depends on factors such as the network's staking rewards rate and the amount of tokens you stake.
