What does staking mean?

Validators run the infrastructure
Validators, like Staking Facilities, are special nodes responsible for the provision of infrastructure as well as proposing and validating new blocks and appending them to the blockchain. Hence, together with other validators, they ensure the blockchains' security by monitoring its accuracy, establishing validity, guaranteeing availability, and provisioning the infrastructure for it to run on.
Validators earn staking rewards & fees
For their work, validators are rewarded in the form of block rewards & transaction fees. In order to participate in securing the network and to be paid for this service, validators are required to lock up collateral “stake” which can be forfeited (i.e. “slashed”) programmatically if their actions break the programmatic rules that define the blockchain protocol which they secure.
Delegators contribute to the security
The right to validate and add blocks, hence, to secure the validity of the blockchain, is attached to every PoS token. Token holders who do not want to act as a validator, but still want to contribute to the blockchain’s security and earn rewards, can delegate the rights contained in their tokens to a validator of their choice. These token holders are called delegators and can be considered as a validators' customer.
Delegators earn a return on their assets
The amount of rewards a delegator can earn through the services of a validator is a function of the validators' total rewards and the ratio between the size of the holder’s own stake and the total stake of the validator. For their services, the validators charge a fee on the token holder’s rewards.
