I don't like staking, staking requires a lot of capital and requires your trust in the platform to meet their obligations.I know why staking seems like handing over your wealth to others.  Because it is locked for a certain period of time.  No chance to move on even if you want to.Staking seems like a lot of risk to me, as staking is not in your control but investing on the other hand you have complete control over yourself. You can invest as little or as much as you want.If your profit is good you can sell.But you can't with staking.

The open blockchain platform Harmony has announced that it will start supporting staking from now, in an effort to create a blockchain-based infrastructure.
source: https://www.harmony.one/
Of course, as I know, there are many exchanges that support staking.
I want to fully understand what is staking and what are the best coins and platforms that we can do staking and give good profits?

My most important question: Which is better, staking or investing?

if you are a student and you are doing this cryptocurrency part-time, I don't think staking will work for you, because the only way I can see for it to help you in any way is to carry out trading activity every day of your life.

But you must at least know something about trading in the crypto space. And from what I can see with the rank you have now, and you are involved in a campaign of signature that you are paid weekly, it is possible to say that you can carry out staking in binance and also investing somehow. And if you know proper money management for sure you can apply DCA for Bitcoin.

that only if the staking isn't locking your coin for certain amount of time in which many are actually doing this to prevent any stakers from withdrawing their money and dump the market.
such thing could also goes both way, what if for instance your staked coin lose the value overtime, there's reason why many coins are offering tremendous APY that is because investing in them are risky and most of them are usually new coins, you could be losing what you've staked and the value gonna lose overtime.

I'll go with investing, since staking has to do with altcoins and I don't trust any altcoins project that I'll give them control over my coins. In investing, I'll be in control of when I can sell since I'm holding the private key to my coins in my wallet but staking takes that away from you as the platforms or exchange that you're staking on can prevent you from accessing your coins at any moment.

The project owners can make changes to their staking protocols at any moment and you have no choice then to agree with them. If the community doesn't like the new rules of staking their project then they'll cause a panic in the market as everyone rush to sell and dump the price of the projects.

I think regarding the decision between staking and investing depends on each individual's investment objectives and risk tolerance. Staking usually involves holding and locking cryptocurrency to support the network, in exchange for a reward in the form of more cryptocurrency.

Staking can provide more stable returns compared to trading or investing in volatile markets. However, staking comes with its own set of risks, including the possibility of deducting penalties for bad node behavior or other issues.

On the other hand, investing in cryptocurrencies can involve buying and holding coins in the hopes of profiting from rising prices. Investing can be riskier but can also provide greater returns. I think the best approach is to diversify your investment strategy and consider staking as part of your overall investment plan.
that's true and both have a level of risk that is proportional to the profit that will be obtained, Staking is safer but the possibility of profit is very small compared to investments that allow everything as well as the risks that will be faced.
but Staking has a specified grace period for taking profits and not everyone will be patient and be able to hold their money without other needs.
both are good in my opinion and it all comes back to the needs and desires of each.

For me staking is good i choose staking than investing, if i found a good platform a trusted platform, i will stake because staking is not risky as investing the only problem in staking is that we will give the staking platform a right on our asset but if we found a good staking platform then it is safe.

I think if you look at the risk sector, staking and investment are actually equally risky at their respective levels. Because if you don't find a really good platform for you to stake, you will also experience big losses. Likewise with investment, if someone cannot find a better and better investment product, he will also experience greater losses so that the risks are almost balanced and similar even though the way they work is very different in these two respects.

But I also won't blame you for your choice because basically everyone has the full right to choose which one he thinks is better to run. Because the ultimate goal is to achieve more profits and avoid losses, so please make a choice according to your own judgment and beliefs.

Investors who think for the long term of course choosing staking is a good idea, by staking then we get APY earnings which can be more than 100%, if we only hold in the wallet then we don't get anything so when the price is red, our assets also drop.
staking will add our coins amount and for long term purpose it will good strategy. when market pump and our coins also pumped we will have more coins in our wallet , totally asset value will increase too. possibility that may occur when staking only impermanent loss and its no worry for us.,
that only if the staking isn't locking your coin for certain amount of time in which many are actually doing this to prevent any stakers from withdrawing their money and dump the market.

staking or investing, i'd say investing but in some case if the staking is quite flexible it's definitely better choice.

for the long term, there is no problem with staking, especially when the market is bearish as it is today, of course, increasing the number of coins will be valuable when the market is bullish later, or even if we miss the bullish season later to wait for the bulls behind it, so that there will be more coins and we can sort out Our current coin is for staking and investing purposes, it depends on our strategy

there are several points that must be concern for crypto investors especially regarding staking. we must also predict about coins price in future, when we stake it, is there any possibility coin price dumped that make us impermanent loss . weak hand will not accept this condtition and prefer investing for long tern which is could give thousands percent return.
Staking is viable but this isnt something that you could dealt it up easily because it would really be needing some consideration in terms of risk taking because you cant be sure  on here prices could possibly

go and this had been always the case.Yes, APY's might really be that interesting or tempting but you should really be considering if you could bare it out or not.

Staking is simply investing because you are putting up money for long term but on the sense on higher risk imho.

Yes, it could bring that if they pick the right coin to invest and stake their money, but it is also needed to consider that

there are projects that only design for pump and dumps if you will not be careful studying potential asset the chance of being victimized
by those scam developers are high.

Like what you said, it's a must be more concerned with how the project will perform before putting your money and stake your
assets. It will help you to survive in this kind of industry.

The current staking offer is very profitable and makes us worth trying it, and the current trend is rebase that can give APY up to thousands of percent or even hundreds of thousands of percent in a year, of course this is the right and fast idea to make our money grow rapidly.

The purpose of investing here is probably buying and then holding until the right time to sell, for those who are used to be patient and make long -term, of course investing is a safer thing, but for me prefer staking because we can get 2 benefits, namely automatic hold and of course get rewards up to tens of percent per year.
You're also investing, the difference is that you'll be getting a reward while you put that investment into staking. The value is also going to change from time to time and you need to be patient as well.
The difference between being an investor and a staker isn't that much but only those that I've said. So it's a win if you're staking a good coin but if it's a coin that's about to sink, it's not worth it.

This question never going to old. With so many options and views about staking and investing, Am going to share some of my thoughts too.
Well if we talk about Stacking first, It seems very safe and easier to get profit from stacking system but the biggest draw back of it is that
your assets will be lock for a very long period if you wish to milk some real profit. many stacking platform offers good % of investing assts as reward but
they usually ask for lock your assets  6 months to 1 year period. This could give you huge dump too as the crypto is not fully stable.

On the other hand investing means to start a new project or go for already developed project and take part in there developing and shareholding.
In this matter you can either work hard and get good results with project or in bad case things can go down too.

The choice is your to take matter in your hands or go with passive way to get some profit.

because I am a person who makes long-term investments so I choose staking as an alternative that supports my coins to be held for several months or even years and thus can still get incom from investment even though the profit is not much
Both investing and staking have their own terms and it doesn't need to be long but if you're into long term, why will you only choose staking when investing can also work the same but I think investing can offer a better benefit in the long run because some good coins can break a new ath but I don't think there is a change in apy when you do staking?

You will get stuck getting that interest forever not unless if you join another staking program that offers better apy returns. It seems you're already involved in investing but I don't get it, why the profit that you are getting is not much? There must be something wrong with the way you invest and pick your coins.

When I was still early I got to know staking or about 2 years ago I often made many mistakes, namely staking by buying new coins that have not been entered in coinmarketcap so that when the staking time ends or usually a month then the value drops and I lose money, and I think staking is a good idea to get rewards and also hope the coins will skyrocket.
