After staking, you can use your stNEAR in other markets while still earning rewards. After each epoch, the stNEAR price will increase as staking-rewards are added to the pool. stNEAR price will always increase as long as there are staking rewards.
Within the contract there's a Liquidity Pool, the pool works like an "single-direction swap pool" allowing you to swap stNEAR for NEAR paying a "swap fee". The fee increases when there's low liquidity in the pool and decreases when the liquidity is abundant.
Anyone can provide liquidity and earn fees in the process. Check the "Liquidity" section.
In the NEAR blockchain, validators can not remove their stake immediately and must wait some period to do so. Waiting periods can be from 2 to 4 days.
Good question! The meta-pool staking is reflected in you holding stNEAR tokens, it will not be reflected in the wallet as "staking", it will be reflected as stNEAR tokens
