Both are a form of passive income. Dividend Stocks give a fixed percantage every year, 6 months, quarterly or every months. You just hold. Crypto staking is when you hold your cryptos in the right place (Earn in BINANCE for example) for a fixed or a flexible duration. The APY - Annual Percentage Yield might change from day to day due to the volume. In most cases the rewards you get from staking your cryptos are daily.
Why should you stake them?
If you are not planning on selling even if the price rise or drops in the upcoming future then there is absolutly no reason to be in your spot wallet ready for trading. Stake them, get your daily rewards. If the crypto winter comes, If the bull run is over, and you are not planning on selling your holdings then just stake them and make your bag bigger! You can also stake StableCoins such as BUSD, USDT, USDC, for 5%-10% sometimes even more. It really makes the banks look useless for saving your money.
