STAKING YOUR BABY TOKENS ON BABYLON
Staking BABY on Babylon means delegating your tokens to help secure the Babylon Genesis blockchain—a Proof-of-Stake network bringing Bitcoin security to other ecosystems. In return, you earn rewards, gain governance power, and benefit from fast unbonding (around 2 days). It’s a way to support the network while putting your BABY tokens to work.
