Staking Rewards

Definition

Staking rewards are incentives distributed to cryptocurrency holders who participate in network validation through staking. By locking up their digital assets, stakers contribute to the security and operation of proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchains. In return for their commitment, they receive newly minted tokens or transaction fees as compensation. These rewards are a core mechanism for securing the network and encouraging long-term holding of the associated cryptocurrency.
