Staking

Earn on your tokens — your money works while you rest.


What Is Staking?

Staking is a way to earn on cryptocurrency. You "deposit" tokens into a DeFi protocol and receive income as interest (APY — Annual Percentage Yield).

Analogy: staking is like a bank deposit, but on the blockchain — with transparent terms and no middlemen.

FAQ

Can I lose funds?

Smart contract risk exists theoretically, but we only use audited protocols (AAVE, Compound, Lido). Risk level is displayed for each pool.

When do I earn?

Earnings accrue continuously in real time. You see balance growth right in the app.

Can I withdraw anytime?

Depends on the protocol. Most pools support instant withdrawal. Lido (stETH) may require waiting or exchanging on a DEX.
