Lockup Period
For security reasons, some protocols stipulate a certain amount of time that needs to pass after a delegator has stopped staking, before the delegators' tokens become liquid again.
If marked 'Custom' (e.g. Skale), the duration of the Lockup Period is congruent with the staking duration chosen by the delegator.

Protocol Mechanics
For better classification, differentiation and comparability of different Blockchain networks, we identified different Protocol Mechanics.
Staking Mechanics
Staking Mechanics refer to the token economics, which is a new branch of the economy that explains the structure of a particular ecosystem in the blockchain sphere. It describes the study, design, and implementation of economic systems built on blockchain technology. Each platform and blockchain application is developed under its own token-economics model.
Proof-of-Stake blockchains not only differ in terms of their 'Protocol Mechanics', but also in terms of certain staking-related parameters, e.g. their reward or inflation rate as well as certain actions that are required by delegators.
