A lot of people will now need to figure out how to stake their own crypto without Kraken so I put together a list of resources taken from around the internet to help get you started.
I think this is all the coins/tokens Kraken offered staking on.
DOT - medium difficulty
Start staking natively on Polkadot with as little as 1 DOT: https://dot.li/Reddit_Nomination_Pools
Polkadot nomination pools make it easier to stake natively by lowering the barrier for earning rewards to as little as 1 DOT, and efficiently balancing the interests of smaller and larger DOT holders. To learn more about staking and nomination pools: https://youtu.be/-poP-gkWg7I
For those who want to take the lead, you can open your own nomination pool and allow others to join and pool their stake. The maximum number of pools has just been doubled to 128! Watch the video to learn how to open your pool: https://youtu.be/-krwI0rsSvE
Are you holding more than the minimum active bond, currently around 240 DOT? Then get full control over your staking and the payouts by nominating directly, and start earning up to 18% rewards while keeping your voting power. Start staking now: https://dot.li/Reddit_Nomination_Pools

KSM - seems pretty fucking difficult or maybe just for me.
best I could do on this (maybe I'm just stupid)
KAVA - easy
See the guide on ATOM - will stake directly from Keplr wallet
no minimum staking amount

ATOM - easy
This on is pretty easy, you will do all staking through your wallet. The easiest wallet to use is Keplr and it is all pretty straight forward after installing the extension.
21 day unbonding period
minimum 0.05 ATOM to stake

FLOW - easyish
Somewhat easy but requires you to create an account on a website.
The easiest way to stake flow seems to be through a web portal they offer.

ETH - medium difficulty to extremely difficult
This is currently not an issue since it's locked up on Kraken and still being staked.
you can also stake on coinbase
if you have 32 eth

ALGO - easyish
Algo has governance periods every three months, you have to commit your ALGOs before the deadline.
no minimum required
liquid staking - but if you go below your committed ALGOs you lose your rewards that are paid out at the end of the governance period.
Governance website
