Is Staking really worth it?

Hey guys, I'm asking this because I've seen a lot of "HODL and stake" comments around, but was wondering if it was really worth it. Here are some of the staking rewards on Binance of some popular tokens seen here on this subreddit:

SOL – 5,21% APY / 0,43% monthly

SAND – 12,36% APY / 1,03% monthly

DOT – 11,51% APY / 0,96% monthly

VET – 3,47% APY / 0,29% monthly

MATIC – 11,34% APY / 0,914% monthly

ALGO – 7,91% APY / 0,66% monthly

AVAX – 7,91% APY / 0,66% monthly

Am I doing something wrong? Because I'm not the brightest in the room. But Liquidity Pools don't seem to be a better option either? https://www.nasdaq.com/articles/half-of-uniswap-liquidity-providers-are-losing-money

Anyways, keeping my money locked up for 1% return (max, usually its half) doesn't make much sense to me? Maybe its good because people since it takes like a day to get access to your tokens when you cancel the contract, it makes much harder for hackers to steal your tokens lol. What are your opinions?
