I googled stake.com and this ad came up - https://getstake.live/Now I was wondering whether it is a scam or just a referral link because anywhere I click on this page, it takes me to the actual stake.com with a referral link, but then why does it have to be shown in the google results?

Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's
computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be
reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

It is not understood properly now. I have to say after many reviews. I personally want to say that it is much better to stay away from such websites. Most of these projects are scam projects. There are many good projects in the market. I think it is better not to pay attention to such projects at the present time

This website may be a fake website. With the help of Google ads, they brought this fake website to the first result. I researched and saw that this domain was bought a few days ago, stake.com did not give any official statement about this website so this website has no connection with them. So I think you should refrain from clicking on such websites.

Google Ads show up at the top of the page. The owner of the website makes money with its referral links, so he paid Google to rank him up higher so he can make more money. It's not a scam right now, but he could create a phishing website rather than link people to the original one.

Also, the title is misleading as it says 75% off which doesn't make any sense at all to me.

Not all Google Ads are scam. Some I have seen just like the link you shared are referral links to popular sites that are offering referral bonuses, but this does not mean you should trust them (Google Ads) Obviously Google is getting paid to display the ads in the search results so expect anything, some will be malicious or phishing site while others will just be referrals.
If you want to avoid such annoying Ads in your search results, install and use ad blocking add-ons like uBlock Origin.

I would say this is not a scam website because if I click anywhere, I am redirected to the original website https://stake.com/ but with reflink, I suspect someone created a simple landing page with their own reflink.

Your statement looks like you vouch for the site. Checking the site, I confirmed that the site owner does share his affiliate link and for now, the site is not a scam site but in the future, it may turn out to be the story of the good girl turn bad cause anything can happen after the site gains huge exposure and in other to more careful it better to use the original site.
