What is staking?

Staking is how you help secure and operate the Solana network. When you delegate your SOL to a validator like MAS DeFi, you support transaction validation and help keep the network decentralized and efficient. In return, you earn rewards simply by holding and staking your tokens.

Why should I stake my SOL with MAS DeFi?

MAS DeFi is a high-performance validator that puts reliability, transparency, and community first. We maintain excellent uptime, run secure infrastructure, and keep our commission low to help you earn more. Staking with us means you are supporting a strong, independent validator that is committed to the long-term health of Solana.

How are staking rewards calculated?

Rewards depend on both network and validator factors. These include the total amount of SOL staked across the network, Solana's current inflation rate, and your validator's performance and commission. MAS DeFi is optimized for uptime and efficiency to help you get the most from your stake.

Is staking SOL risky?

Staking is generally considered safe, especially when you choose a trusted validator. Staking is noncustodial, which means your SOL remains in your wallet and under your control at all times. While nothing in crypto is completely free of risk, MAS DeFi takes security seriously with continuous monitoring and a robust infrastructure that is designed to keep your stake protected.

Stake Directly

Direct Staking is the simplest way to earn rewards. You will receive SOL in the stake account roughly every two days that is automatically reinvested.
