The Power of Liquid Staking
Staking has become an integral part of blockchain ecosystems, allowing participants to support network security and earn rewards. Traditional staking, however, often comes with the drawback of illiquidity—once assets are staked, they are typically locked up and inaccessible for a predetermined period. This can limit your ability to react to market conditions or take advantage of other investment opportunities.Liquid staking addresses this challenge by enabling you to stake your assets while maintaining liquidity. With liquid staking on Stratis:
- Enhanced Liquidity: Stake your STRAX tokens and receive rSTRAX, a representative token that reflects your staked assets and accumulated rewards.
- Maximized Yield: Enjoy the benefits of staking rewards without sacrificing the ability to manage and deploy your assets as you see fit
