What about staking on the exodus wallet? This seems legit eventhough the APY that already offered by exodus was small but you can stake it through your exodus wallet. As far as i know that exodus wallet has a very good security too. This will not make you pegged with the 3rd party just like the swap or farm service. You can also stake your assets through various wallet like trustwallet, safepall, ledger and something else.
This is the best way to stake your coin as you didn't need to complete the KYC verification as the wallet didn't require it.
It's not a mandatory for the its users.
