Solayer is Solana’s native restaking protocol — similar in concept to EigenLayer on Ethereum, but built specifically for Solana from the ground up. It lets you restake SOL or LSTs (like mSOL, JitoSOL) to mint sSOL, a liquid staking token that secures dApps across the ecosystem.
How It Works
Restake SOL into sSOL to earn yield while helping secure AVS-enabled apps.
dApps with more sSOL backing get faster, prioritized execution through stake-weighted QoS.
No need for each dApp to run its own validators — they share Solayer’s network.
Built natively for Solana, aligning with its speed, low fees, and seamless UX.
Solayer focuses on endogenous AVS — services that run directly within Solana — instead of relying on bridged or external solutions like on Ethereum.
Why It Matters
Improves capital efficiency — no unstaking required to join new apps.
Strengthens security for dApps without extra infrastructure.
Boosts performance with faster execution and lower latency.
This isn’t a fork or an experiment — it’s designed for Solana’s architecture from day one. Solayer takes the network’s core strengths — speed, composability, and liquidity — and restakes them into the security layer that can drive the next wave of adoption.
If restaking is the future, Solayer is making sure Solana gets there first.
Have you tried minting sSOL yet? Would you stake to secure apps instead of just validators?$LAYER
