Hey Bitcointalk community,

As we all know, the crypto world is constantly changing, and figuring out the best ways to maximize returns is always on everyone's mind. With DeFi platforms booming and staking programs becoming more popular, a lot of us are wondering: Is staking or trading the better way to go? Which one will give you the best returns?

everyone has their own interest in trading or staking. people who prefer trading will certainly like the profits they get from trading. on the other hand, those who do not have enough trading skills may like the APR offered by the platform even though it is small.

I don't know if you are a trader and also stake assets on a particular platform. some people don't like staking because of the problem of asset ownership. it's like you are lending your assets and receiving interest from the platform. assets are not in your control. therefore more people will keep their assets in their wallets as long-term investments in their own hands.
I recommend who have good knowledge in trading they should go for trading, here they can make decent profits then staking, staking is low profits and but not risk free because you already explain that in staking owners have no control with own assets if lending platform is centralized. But some peoples can try in staking who have good fund but no skill in trading.

Yeah, it depends on the risks you want to take.
Lower risks = staking. More time is needed to see the results. On CEXes especially.
Bigger risks = higher rewards = trading. More expertise is needed, analysis should be your main task in your sessions, and you won't do it perfectly from your first day off.
If you will keep staking with stable tokens like USDT,USDC; there are no risk because stable coins will never drop down, just risk is only depend on where you keep holding like centralized exchanges and or lending platform, stable coins staking APY will very low and other altcoins staking APY is high because altcoins high volatile.
