Flexible vs. Fixed Staking
Cause offers two staking modes to suit different strategies. Flexible staking lets you unstake at any time with no penalty, making it ideal for holders who want liquidity on short notice. Fixed staking locks your tokens for a set period, typically 30, 90, or 180 days, in exchange for a meaningfully higher reward rate. Both modes contribute equally to network security, so the choice comes down to whether you prioritize access to your funds or maximum yield. Many experienced stakers split their holdings between the two, keeping a liquid reserve in flexible staking while locking the majority for higher returns.
