Cryptocurrency staking lets you generate passive income by holding assets on a Proof of Stake blockchain. Unlike bank deposits, staking has no capital guarantee: the main risk is not the staking mechanism itself, but the price volatility of the underlying asset.
Exchange staking (Binance, Kraken): you deposit your crypto on the platform and it handles the technical staking. Simplest option with better liquidity in flexible mode. Risk includes platform risk (centralised custody).
Native staking (directly on-chain): you connect your wallet directly to the blockchain. Maximum control and no centralised counterparty risk, but requires technical knowledge and higher minimums (32 ETH for native Ethereum staking).
A bank deposit guarantees the APY regardless of market conditions and is protected up to €100,000 by the DGS. Staking can offer more than double the yield, but if the asset falls 30%, your net result will be negative. It makes sense as a complement for those who are already holding crypto long-term.
APYData aggregates rates and yields from official sources: the European Central Bank, national treasuries (bonds & T-bills), the Spanish Deposit Guarantee Fund (FGD) and banks’ official rates. Figures are updated automatically. (how it works · about us)
