What Is the ‘Staking Ratio’ and Why Is It a Key Metric for PoS Networks?

The Staking Ratio is the percentage of the total circulating supply of a cryptocurrency that is currently being staked to secure the network. A higher Staking Ratio indicates greater security, as it means a larger portion of the total value would need to be acquired and slashed to execute a 51% attack.

It is a key metric for assessing the network's economic security.
