Bitcoin staking is revolutionising the way Bitcoin holders can utilise their Bitcoin, allowing them to earn rewards while also opening the door to Decentralised Finance (DeFi) use cases. Protocols like Babylon, Build On Bitcoin (BOB), and platforms such as Stacks enable users to stake their Bitcoin in a trustless, self-custodial manner, enhancing both liquidity and network security. This approach integrates innovative mechanisms like slashing for malicious behaviour and fast un-bonding, aligning with Bitcoin’s core strengths of censorship resistance and decentralisation. As demand for staking grows, Bitcoin is expanding beyond its role as a store of value, becoming a key player in DeFi.
