Utility staking involves locking up tokens to gain access to specific features, services, or governance rights within a decentralized application or protocol. Unlike traditional staking for network security, utility staking grants functional benefits directly related to the platform’s operation. The staked tokens act as a prerequisite for using certain aspects of the ecosystem. This mechanism aligns user incentives with platform usage.
