Which is better, to stake on my own, or to cold stake?

The choice between staking on your own or using a cold staking service ultimately depends on your personal preferences, risk tolerance, and technical expertise.

Staking PIVX on your own means that you'll be running a PIVX wallet on your own device and staking your PIVX coins directly. This method gives you full control over your funds and helps to decentralize the network. However, it also requires technical knowledge to set up and maintain your wallet, keep it secure, and ensure optimal performance.

PIVX Cold staking, on the other hand, involves delegating your staking rights to another entity or service provider, such as a trusted validator or staking pool. This method removes the need for you to run a dedicated wallet, and instead allows you to participate in staking through a remote server. Cold staking can be more convenient than running your own wallet, but it also involves trusting a third party with your funds.

Both staking methods offer potential rewards for users who participate in securing the network. Ultimately, the decision between staking on your own or using cold staking services depends on your personal circumstances, preferences, and level of technical expertise.

Even though, Staking PIVX can be also performed through Exchange Platforms like Binance Earn, and other Staking Platforms that support PIVX, I personally do not like any at all because you earn PIVs after subtracting the platform fees and I prefer to earn FULL STAKE! Who doesn't?!

Final thought!

I stake PIVX because I believe in the purpose of the project as it utilizes transactions fast and privately thanks to zkSNARKs technology from ZCASH.

However STAKING alone does not MAKE U RICH at all. I am not rich either.
BUT!, I do follow a strategy; I buy low - The Dip - and hold for staking, then I sell some when value goes up, and Stake the rest then I repeat again and again.
