Staker Utility refers to the overall value or benefit a participant gains from locking their digital assets within a Proof-of-Stake blockchain system. This utility extends beyond direct financial rewards to include governance participation rights, network security contributions, and potential access to decentralized finance applications. It represents the comprehensive advantage of staking.
Context
Understanding staker utility is essential for evaluating the economic models and long-term viability of Proof-of-Stake protocols. The aggregate utility motivates individuals and entities to participate in securing the network, thereby contributing to its decentralization and resilience. Protocol developers continuously refine reward structures and governance mechanisms to maximize staker utility and ensure network health.
