Staking Rewards has just released the Staking Ecosystem Report 2022. 🤓

This report provides a comprehensive overview of the staking landscape, including insights on the growth of staking, the most popular staking protocols, and the top #staking rewards.

One of the key takeaways from the report is the continued growth and maturity of the staking industry. Staking has become a mainstream approach to earning passive income and supporting the security and decentralization of blockchain networks.

The report also highlights the diversity of staking protocols and the opportunities they present for investors and delegators. From proof-of-stake protocols like Cosmos and Tezos, to layer 2 solutions like Optimistic Rollup, there are a range of options for those looking to get involved in staking.

The "Staking Ecosystem Report 2022" is a must-read for anyone interested in staying up-to-date on the latest trends and developments in the staking space. You can find the full report here: https://lnkd.in/d3c6hiwJ
