Staking crypto accounts and Staking Accounts
Locked staking a cryptocurrency
Staking is a way of earning rewards for holding certain cryptocurrencies for a predetermined period. But even if you’re just looking to earn some staking rewards, it’s useful to understand at least a little bit about how and why it works the way it does.
How does staking work?
The reason your crypto earns rewards while staked is that blockchain puts it to work. Cryptocurrencies that allow staking use a “consensus mechanism” called Proof of Stake, which is the way they ensure that all transactions are verified and secured without a bank or payment processor in the middle. Your crypto, if you choose to stake it, becomes part of that process.It works just as your funds work in a bank Staking Accounts. You are paid interest for the bank’s being able to use your funds to give out as loans, mortgages or just invest.
What is the advantage of staking?
Many long-term crypto holders look at staking as a way of making their assets work for them by generating rewards, rather than collecting dust in their crypto wallets. Not only does my token collect interest, but it also collects compounded interest throughout the locked period.
How do I start staking?
It’s simple; deposit into your staking account with Bitcoin (staking accounts can only be deposited with Bitcoin).Choose a crypto currency you want to stake.Choose the period(for how long it will be locked) you want to lock your stake.Choose the amount you want to stake and you are done.Now just sit back , relax and watch your tokens work for you, earning rewards.
