Staking rewards for most assets can be thought of as akin to compounding interest, unlike traditional markets where dividends are reinvested. Since staking rewards are paid in staked tokens, users can “reinvest” those tokens to receive higher payouts in the next period. In addition, staking tokens are usually stored in their respective wallets, which means that users do not need to re-stake to receive benefits.
