Staking programs are mechanisms within certain blockchain networks, typically those using proof-of-stake consensus, where holders can lock up their digital assets to support network operations. In return for this participation, stakers receive rewards, usually in the form of additional native tokens. These programs are designed to incentivize network security and participation.
