For the complete documentation index, see llms.txt. Locks tokens from the customer’s available balance into a new stake position. Rewards accrue proportionally to the lock duration (see /set-staking-rate). Each customer can have at most 50 active stakes; use /prune-inactive-stakes to clear unlocked ones.
Treat this as a transaction. If you don’t get a response, fetch /stake-count before retrying.
