Types of crypto staking platforms:

Exchange

A cryptocurrency exchange is a website where you may buy and sell digital currencies. Exchanges can be used to trade one cryptocurrency for another.The pricing of the cryptocurrencies on exchanges are based on current market prices.

Binance

There are two ways of staking your crypto on binance. First is locked staking, which will just stake your money for a set amount of time before returning them to you. The second option is DeFi staking, which is limited to a certain number of currencies such as Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin (BTC), Binance coin (BNB), etc. One of the biggest advantages of staking on Binance is that there are no fees for staking your crypto.

CoinBase

You just move the funds you want to stake into the 'vault' to invest on this platform.The staking costs are high, yet the site is user-friendly and secure. The fee for staking on CoinBase is 25%.

Kraken

Kraken is now the fourth largest cryptocurrency exchange, according to CoinMarketCap. Kraken permits staking crypto assets, with unstaking support for the majority of crypto coins.Unstaking refers to withdrawing or trading your staked funds. As a result, there is no bonding period.Furthermore, you will receive staking benefits immediately, with Kraken paying you once a week or more, depending on the coin. 

Staking pools

A staking pool is formed when a group of coin holders pool their resources.As a result of the consolidation, they will have a better probability of validating blocks and receiving rewards. They basically combine their resources and split the rewards.Setting up and managing a staking pool requires a significant amount of knowledge and work. Furthermore, such a strategy is less effective on platforms with a low entrance barrier.Many currency traders have created pools with a membership and admission fee.

Staking-as-a-Service platforms

Staking as a Service (SaaS) allows you to avoid many of the possible drawbacks of staking. They accomplish this by enlisting the help of a staking service provider. It is their responsibility to find and make sound investments on behalf of the investors.Making a stake grants the stakeholder voting power over the governance of a certain coin. It's possible that SaaS suppliers will vote differently, resulting in a conflict of interest.

Figment

Although Figment has a smaller number of protocols, it is supported by a couple of well-known blockchain-focused venture companies. This is a platform worth paying attention to in the future, with a well-established and experienced team behind it.

MyContainer

MyContainer is a staking and masternode cryptocurrency platform that allows users to earn money through stakes.The rewards vary for each coin and are determined by the coin consensus rule (rewards can go from 1 percent to 149 percent ). All reward fees for each currency are transparent, which is something that every crypto investor needs to see before deciding whether or not to use the platform.

DeFi

Decentralized finance, or DeFi, is an umbrella word for a multitude of public blockchain applications and projects aimed at challenging the existing finance world.DeFi refers to financial applications built on blockchain technologies, generally employing smart contracts, and is inspired by blockchain technology. DeFi refers to applications and peer-to-peer protocols built on decentralized blockchain networks that allow for easy lending, borrowing, and trading of financial assets without requiring access rights.

Lido

Lido is the market leader in Ethereum liquid staking, accounting for more than 80% of the market.Users of Lido can utilize their staked ETH as collateral to engage in DeFi protocols, eliminating the need to choose between staking their ETH and earning lucrative DeFi returns.The platform also supports liquid staking on the Solana, Kusama and Terra blockchains.
