Earn More in TokenPocket through Staking
Written by tojukaka
Many people are drawn to the world of cryptocurrency because of the opportunities to earn passive income. The opportunities here are usually open to all and although most of them require little effort to execute, it’s important for the crypto investor to do due diligence before investing. This would greatly mitigate the risk associated with investing.
In the conventional way of investing, investors would scout for undervalued cryptocurrency and buy them with the hope of selling at an opportune time when the price goes up. In staking, investors not only stand the chance of making capital gains but also increase the quantity of their cryptocurrency holdings as they earn more cryptocurrency just by holding.
Staking is used in Proof of Stake blockchains. It has been dubbed as the new form of mining because they both serve the same purpose — the creation of new cryptocurrency tokens through inflation. In mining (seen in POW blockchains), these newly created tokens would be given to miners who spend a lot of computational power and electricity to compete for the new tokens. Staking is more energy conservative and here, newly-created tokens are distributed to token holders based on their stake.
In DPOS blockchains like EOS, BOS, and TRON, the way staking works, is that users keep their funds in a crypto wallet like TokenPocket and then delegate their tokens to staking pools. By doing so, they delegate their voting power and could also earn some rewards. Sometimes the users may be required to perform some simple tasks such as voting or claiming their rewards periodically.
In TokenPocket, users can earn cryptocurrency by simply delegating their cryptocurrency to staking pools like TPools, NewPool, e.t.c. After staking, no other action is required of the users.
