Rewards = Total − Principal
Staking means locking up crypto to support a blockchain network (proof-of-stake). You earn rewards (new coins) as compensation, typically 4-15% annually.
Ethereum staking yields approximately 3-5% APY in 2024. Solo staking requires 32 ETH. Liquid staking (Lido, Rocket Pool) allows any amount with slight fee deduction.
Staking rewards that are re-staked compound. $10,000 at 8% staking APY, compounded annually: grows to $21,589 in 10 years.
Yes — staking rewards are taxable as ordinary income at fair market value when received (IRS position). Then taxable again as capital gains when you sell.
Staking is lower-risk than active trading but not risk-free. Risks: slashing (validator penalties), lock-up periods, smart contract bugs, and underlying price volatility.
