Solana Liquid Staking Tools
9 tools in this category
Liquid staking lets you earn SOL staking rewards while keeping your capital liquid. Instead of locking SOL with a validator, you receive a liquid staking token (like mSOL, jitoSOL, or bSOL) that accrues staking rewards and can be used across DeFi — lending, LP positions, or as collateral.
The main advantage over native staking is composability. Your staked SOL doesn't sit idle — it can earn additional yield in DeFi protocols while still accumulating staking rewards underneath. The tradeoff is smart contract risk and a small deviation from SOL's price (the depeg risk).
Who it's for
SOL holders who want staking yield but also want to use their capital in DeFi simultaneously. Ideal for yield optimizers and DeFi-active users.
What to look for
- ✓LST peg stability and historical deviation
- ✓Underlying validator set diversity
- ✓DeFi integration breadth (where can you use the LST)
- ✓Fee structure (minting, redeeming, management)
- ✓Smart contract audit history
