You can hold and use POINTS within Ecency, but there is no stake function for POINTS.

This is a bit curious because I received points that are different from the ones we earn getting Likes, comments, reposts etc. That's why I was curious and decided to ask 🤔

I earned these "points" apparently by keeping my Ecency points

You can stake HIVE as Hive Power, it is usually referred as powering up HIVE or staking HIVE.
Half of your earnings from publishing automatically staked, half you get in liquid tokens. All your curation earnings staked automatically. The more stake you have more curation reward you earn and you can reward others more as well.

Thank you very much, I was with this doubt for some time and did not know how the stake system worked
