What is Solayer? It's like turning the money you have sitting in the bank into a 'little bee' that flies around during the day, collects nectar, and safely returns. What Solayer does in the Solana ecosystem is restaking.
As long as you restake, you can get sSOL, similar to a 'liquid token'—used for entering DeFi, providing liquidity, or even for borrowing operations, without needing to unlock the principal; liquidity is guaranteed. This treatment is just like the chicken you raise at your distant relative's house, which not only lays eggs but also entertains the cat.
The core term of Solayer is AVS (Actively Validated Services), which refers to a bunch of services needing secure endorsement, like oracles, modular rollups, and cross-chain functionalities. A portion of the SOL from restaking goes to protect these services, making the entire Solana ecosystem more stable—no need for you to deploy validation nodes for every project, saving you worry and effort.
Let me mention a trump card: InfiniSVM, Solayer's self-developed hardware-empowered version, is an upgraded virtual machine for Solana. Saying it's fast is an understatement; transactions are confirmed in the blink of an eye, with scalability reaching '100 Gbps' levels, and throughput so high it makes you question life. It’s like your home elevator that goes up in an instant while allowing six people to stream shows simultaneously, both efficient and luxurious.
There’s also a surprisingly useful feature: Solayer has launched sUSD, a stablecoin backed by U.S. Treasury bonds, which can yield an annualized return of 4–5% just by being in your wallet, and you can continue to restake it. It feels like buying a fixed deposit at the bank while still being able to use your card for payments and enjoy red envelopes.
Don’t forget the token LAYER. This thing isn’t just for show; it’s essential for top-ups, governance voting, and consensus incentives, equivalent to Solayer’s core power source.
Solayer's launch was nothing short of Mammoth: the first round of restaking opened and was instantly drained to the $20 million limit, all in 45 minutes! The excitement level was just like the queue for the hotpot restaurant that just opened next door.
Solayer adds a 'power engine' to the Solana system, allowing your SOL assets to 'run a few more stops', improving efficiency without taking on much risk. The future is clear: restaking is a trend, and Solayer is the frontrunner that has laid down the tracks first.
