Staked supply refers to the quantity of a cryptocurrency that has been locked up by holders to support the operations of a Proof of Stake (PoS) blockchain network. Participants commit their assets to validate transactions and secure the network, receiving rewards in return. This action removes a portion of the total supply from active trading circulation. The staked amount directly contributes to the network’s decentralization and security.
Context
Crypto news frequently analyzes staked supply figures as an indicator of network participation, security, and potential market scarcity. A rising staked supply can signal increased confidence in a blockchain’s long-term viability and reduced selling pressure. This metric provides valuable context for understanding the economic incentives within PoS systems and their impact on asset valuation. Reports often highlight changes in staking rates and their implications.
