Staking Rate
The proportion of token holders or circulating supply that is staked rather than idle or traded, often used as a signal of ecosystem participation and token alignment.
How Staking Rate works in practice
Staking rate reflects how much of a token’s supply is being committed to network participation, yield generation, or ecosystem alignment rather than remaining liquid. A higher staking rate can indicate confidence and long-term participation, but it can also be heavily influenced by incentives. The real interpretation depends on why users are staking and what happens when those incentives change. For token teams, staking rate is both an economic and behavioural metric.
