This forms a mutual binding between the proposal and the stake.
A stake may be used to vote on an unlimited number of proposals. Consider a user staking 50GT. They may pledge that 50GT against a proposal `p` _and_ another proposal `p'`.

When voting on a proposal, a user can check which stakes have delegated to them off-chain and include them in the voting transaction. _This will lock the delegator's stake_, however they will be themselves be able to unlock it as usual.

In order to recover the ADA and potentially any other funds sent on accident, Stake UTXOs must be destroyable.
## Staking pool
There are a number of reasons that a protocol would wish to track the global state of stakes in its system. For example, a protocol may wish to implement a proposal system where a certain proportion of the globally available GT must be staked in-favour of a proposal, in order to allow it to pass. This is the equivalent of mandating a certain voter turnout be met in a national referendum. The ability to do such a thing is conferred by the creation of a _staking pool_.
