Examine the existing coin transaction and staking logic in the codebase. Look for how coins are transferred and how staking is currently handled (if any). Implement a new function to lock a specified amount of coins for staking, updating the blockchain state accordingly. Ensure the locking mechanism aligns with the consensus rules and does not double spend locked coins.
