# Guide: BTC Staking (Babylon)

## Quick Overview

* **Babylon Self-Custodial Bitcoin Staking** lets Bitcoin holders stake their BTC **directly on the Bitcoin network,** no wrapping, no bridging, and no third-party custody.
* By delegating to a Finality Provider, your BTC helps secure Proof-of-Stake (PoS) chains, earning rewards in return.
* When integrated with **b14g’s Merge Marketplace**, your BTC can be paired with **BABY stakers** to unlock **co-staking rewards** for higher yield.
