Native Staking Strategy

No Liquid Token (JSOL)

Native staking delegates SOL directly to a validator. No JSOL is minted. Your SOL is locked in a standard Solana stake account until you unstake (~2 days).

Want liquidity? Consider Liquid Staking instead.

Risks & Considerations

Native

This is the simplest and lowest-risk staking option. Your SOL is delegated directly via the Solana protocol with no additional smart contract layers.

The main risk is validator performance — if your chosen validator goes offline or increases commission, your rewards may decrease.

SOL is illiquid during the unstaking period (~2 days). Plan accordingly.
