Staking your TIA tokens not only helps secure the Celestia network but also lets you earn APY rewards while holding your assets. Let's dive into the simplest methods to stake TIA in 2025.
What is TIA Staking?
Staking TIA involves locking your tokens with validators who help secure the Celestia network. In return, you earn staking rewards in the form of additional TIA tokens.
The process is non-custodial, meaning you maintain control of your assets while they're staked. The current TIA staking APY makes it an attractive option for passive income within the Celestia ecosystem.
