CRYPTO IS SIMPLE
SEC Staking is when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reviews and regulates cryptocurrency staking services. The SEC believes that some staking services may be similar to investment contracts (securities) that must be registered and regulated.
Simply put, if you stake your crypto (to earn interest), the platform offering it may come under SEC scrutiny. This could lead to restrictions or bans on such services in the U.S., affecting the entire crypto market
