Solayer – Opening a New Era of Restaking on Solana

@solayer_labs is a groundbreaking new protocol on the Solana blockchain, making restaking and liquid restaking a reality. This protocol provides Solana users with more ways to optimize profits from staking (staking) SOL or liquid staking tokens (LST – Liquid Staking Tokens). Instead of just staking to secure the network, users can now restake and support other blockchain services, known as AVS (Active Verification Services). This not only creates higher profit opportunities but also strengthens and expands the Solana ecosystem. What is Restaking? Restaking is a simple yet powerful concept. When you stake SOL, you typically receive rewards for helping to secure the network. Restaking elevates this idea: it allows the same amount of tokens, or LSTs like mSOL or jitoSOL, to support other blockchain tasks simultaneously. This means that the same stake can be used multiple times to generate rewards. With Solayer, Solana users can do this safely, transparently, and in a structured manner. Why is Solayer important? Solayer is the first native restaking protocol on Solana. Previously, Solana users had fewer options compared to Ethereum – where there were many restaking platforms. Solayer changes this, helping Solana catch up and compete in the restaking space. With Solayer, users do not have to choose between staking for security and seeking high returns. They can do both at the same time, while also helping to strengthen the Solana ecosystem, making the platform more attractive for both users and developers. Liquid Restaking One of the most notable features of Solayer is liquid restaking. When you use LST, you still retain liquidity. For example, if you stake SOL and receive mSOL back, this token can be used in DeFi applications while still earning staking rewards. With Solayer, these LSTs can also be restaked to support AVS, creating a powerful profit loop: Stake SOL → Receive LST Use LST in DeFi → Earn more yield Restake LST with Solayer → Receive additional rewards This maximizes profit opportunities without locking up users' liquidity. How Solayer works The process of Solayer is very simple: Stake or use LST – Users bring SOL or supported LSTs. Restake with Solayer – Tokens are placed into Solayer pools that support AVS. Support services – Restaking tokens help secure or operate AVS and other blockchain functions. Receive rewards – Users earn additional profits beyond regular staking rewards. All of these activities are carried out through smart contracts, ensuring transparency, safety, and automation. Benefits of Solayer Higher rewards: Earn more than with traditional staking. Enhanced Solana: More tokens are used to secure services. Flexible: Stake directly or use LST. DeFi connectivity: LST can still be used in DeFi applications while restaking. Innovation: Helps Solana catch up with other ecosystems where restaking has become popular. Impact on Solana Solayer not only benefits individual users but also positively impacts the development of Solana. When users have more reasons to hold and stake SOL, the network becomes stronger and more stable. At the same time, Solayer also attracts developers to create new services using restake pools, opening up many new applications and opportunities for the entire Solana ecosystem. The role of the community The community plays an important role with Solayer. Users who stake or restake not only earn benefits for themselves but also contribute to the development of Solana's infrastructure. The governance Token LAYER allows the community to participate in decision-making, propose improvements, and share in the network's growth. The road ahead Solayer is still in the early stages, but the future is very promising. As the number of AVS increases and LST on Solana expands, the importance of Solayer will become even greater. Currently, Solayer has achieved a high TVL, demonstrating strong trust from the community. If it continues to develop, Solayer could become one of the key protocols for the long-term success of Solana. Conclusion Solayer is an important step for Solana, introducing restaking and liquid restaking in a simple, efficient, and profitable manner. For users: increase profit opportunities and more flexibility in DeFi. For Solana: strengthen the network, attract developers, and expand the ecosystem. By helping SOL and LST “do more”, Solayer opens up new opportunities for the entire ecosystem. This is not just an ordinary DeFi protocol, but a foundation for a powerful, dynamic, and sustainable Solana. #BuiltonSolayer $LAYER {spot}(LAYERUSDT)
