Staking-as-a-service providers bridge the gap between [[token holders]] and [[Decentralized Networks]]. They enable users to delegate tokens and participate in network activity. We will offer a marketplace that connects staking providers with token holders. - You can explain Staking (Proof-of-Stake) as a mechanism where you delegate your stake or tokens to a validator address and in return your receive rewards for that action. Receiving Staking rewards is one important part of the Proof-of-Stake consensus mechanism. But more important is that you secure the network by locking up your tokens for a certain time. If you put these two components together, staking means: **Token holders are getting rewarded for securing the Proof of Stake network by delegating to a validator.**
