Hybrid Staking Model combines elements of both proof-of-stake (PoS) and delegated proof-of-stake (DPoS) mechanisms. This approach allows users to stake their assets directly or delegate their tokens to a validator. In a typical PoS system, individuals validate transactions and create new blocks based on the number of coins they hold. This encourages users to hold and stake their tokens to earn rewards. Conversely, DPoS introduces a voting system where token holders elect validators to represent them, enabling a quicker transaction process and reducing the energy needed for validation.The hybrid model offers flexibility and scalability. Users can choose to actively participate by running their own validator nodes or passively earn rewards by delegating their tokens to trusted validators. This encourages broader participation while maintaining a degree of decentralization.By leveraging the strengths of both PoS and DPoS, the hybrid staking model aims for improved network security, increased efficiency, and a more inclusive staking experience. It encourages users to engage with the ecosystem while also providing optimal scalability and performance for the network.
