Staking in crypto is like interest in Fiat.
You lend (stake) your crypto and get reward (interest) for it.
I suggest all my Muslim brother to stay away from this new kind usury.
Does that also mean Muslims don't keep fixed deposit accounts at the bank? Fixed deposits also pay interest to owners. Even until lately, savings accounts also paid interest to owners. So, I really don't get this point of you trying to sound this warning. Where is it stated in the Quran that Muslims should not engage in such business. This was the same skepticism that greeted the use of Bitcoin in 2017 by some overzealous Muslim users here. Truth remains that there are worse activities people indulge in than a harmless trading business.
