"Staking" is used as a catch-all word in web3, but not all forms are the same. Certain types of staking support the community better than others, and one type in particular might even disadvantage tokenholders.

Join guest Steve Woody, Partner & Community Lead at Sunflower Land, alongside host Sam Peurifoy, CEO of Playground Labs, a web3/blockchain dev company. Sunflower Land is one of the first truly decentralized and fully open-source web3 games, with a remarkably strong community presence driving real gameplay decisions.
