The open blockchain platform Harmony has announced that it will start supporting staking from now, in an effort to create a blockchain-based infrastructure.

I want to fully understand what is staking and what are the best coins and platforms that we can do staking and give good profits?
My most important question: Which is better, staking or investing?
This depends but generally, investing is relatively better.
Staking may be compared to mining but it in a more eco-friendly approach as it does not need any super-powered CPUs in order to proceed. You choose a PoS coin, download its wallet, determine the minimum number required of staking coins, and start staking.
The problem with staking is choosing what token/coins to purchase from. There are lot of tokens and altcoins being developed daily and it might be tricky and tempting to purchase from a new project. On the other hand, investing involves purchasing a coin and letting time mature on its own value. Generally, some investors purchase popular coins in order to at least minimize the chances of being scammed.
This is certainly perfect for cryptocurrencies in general, as they are volatile in their value.
