## What is Native Staking?

Hedera Native Staking is a process by which users can earn rewards for holding and staking Hedera's native cryptocurrency HBAR to the network. This allows users to participate in continued decentralization and help maintain the security and integrity of the Hedera network by staking their HBAR to Governing Council nodes they trust. Staked HBAR will be used to vote on governance decisions within the Hedera network.

Hedera Native Staking is unique in a way because there is no locking or slashing involved. Users can stake HBARs directly from their non-custodial account, receive daily rewards, while having their funds liquid and available at any time if needed.

```
GET https://docs.citadelwallet.io/wallet-spec/supported-features/native-staking.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
