Proof of Stake (PoS): what is it?

Mekanisme konsensus blockchain di mana hak validasi blok ditentukan berdasarkan jumlah koin yang dipertaruhkan (staking).

🎯 Key Takeaways & Use Cases

✓PoS selects validators in proportion to their staked tokens for transaction validation.
✓Powers Solana’s secure, energy-efficient, and scalable network.
✓Token holders earn rewards by staking directly or by delegating to professional validators.
✓Key foundation for Solana, DeFi, and staking rewards models.

💡 Real-World Examples

A user delegates SOL to a validator, sharing in the earned rewards.
Running a Solana validator node with a large amount of staked SOL, producing blocks and securing the chain.
Participating in liquid staking protocols (mSOL, stSOL) to combine PoS yields with DeFi flexibility.

⚡ Pro Trading Tips

▸Staked tokens remain locked for the duration of staking or unstaking periods—plan liquidity needs accordingly.
