The global staking market exceeded $245 billion in late 2025. Cardano has 71% of its supply staked. Cosmos pays 15–20% nominal APY. Ethereum locks nearly a third of all ETH in validators. Staking is not one thing. It is a different economic arrangement on every chain — and understanding those differences is where the real analysis begins.
