Could you elaborate on the potential risks involved in staking Solana? I've heard of the rewards, but am curious about the possibility of losing my investment. Is there a significant chance of losing my Solana tokens by participating in staking? Are there any specific factors I should consider before making this decision? Understanding the risks and rewards is crucial for me before I decide to stake my tokens.
