Delegated staking
will allow users to earn staking rewards without running a node themselves.
Additionally, it reduces the amount of Aptos (APT) tokens required to
participate. Currently, users only need 11 APT tokens,
worth approximately $117 at the time of publication, to
stake their tokens.
With delegated staking, users can delegate their stake to a trusted validator, who will earn profits from locking up the user's crypto for a set period of time without any additional fees.
