Some wallets use the label "staking" to refer to the act of handing over your coins to a custodian who will turn around and stake them.

Is this label correct? Staking may have been the user's goal, but the "handing over the coins" part feels too critical to not be reflected in the action's label.

Am I off-base here?

totally get what you're saying. calling it "staking" when you're actually handing over control feels a bit misleading. it's like renting out your car but they call it "car sharing." maybe a term like "delegated staking" would make more sense? just my two cents!
