Solayer introduces an enhanced native SOL staking feature that allows users to earn a significant annual yield without the need for liquid staking tokens (LSTs) or liquid restaking tokens (LRTs). This is achieved through the Solayer Mega Validator, which is described as a top-performing validation node on Solana, designed to provide maximum returns for all users. By staking native SOL, users' funds are utilized to secure Solayer's InfiniSVM, the hardware-accelerated blockchain capable of achieving one million TPS, thereby earning additional rewards. The key advantages of this approach include institutional-level security, as it eliminates counterparty risk by allowing users to retain full control of their tokens, and the avoidance of accounting complexities associated with additional tokens. Furthermore, users receive extra income from the various uses of their staked SOL within the Solayer ecosystem. The process involves depositing SOL into a Solayer vault, which converts the native SOL into an intermediate token called sSOL-raw, a liquid staking token that is then delegated to a group of operators. This mechanism, powered by a Restaking Pool Manager and Delegation Manager, ensures that the staked assets are efficiently distributed across various protocols and networks, like Actively Validated Services (AVSs), to validate their work and generate rewards. Users can also delegate to specific Solayer validators to earn a share of the rewards, which are collected and managed by a Reward Accounting Unit. Through this robust system, Solayer not only extends the utility of staked SOL but also reinforces the security and decentralization of the entire Solana network, providing stakers with a powerful and flexible way to maximize their returns while contributing to the ecosystem's integration
