staking
Securing with posts
Staking is the act of marking or claiming territory with stakes, or of supporting something—usually a plant—by tying it to a stake: staking tomatoes.
To stake out a location is to watch it covertly: The detectives spent weeks staking out the warehouse.
In gambling and investment, staking means putting up money: She's staking her savings on this venture.
In cryptocurrency, staking refers to locking up coins to support a blockchain network and earn rewards.
