The concept of restaking has transformed blockchain ecosystems, with Ethereum’s EigenLayer leading the charge. Now, Solayer brings this innovation to Solana, combining the network’s unmatched speed and scalability with a robust restaking infrastructure designed for the next generation of DeFi and decentralized applications.
What Solayer Brings to Solana
Solayer enables users to restake SOL or liquid staking tokens — such as mSOL, JitoSOL, and others — in exchange for sSOL, a liquid restaking token. Unlike traditional staking, sSOL opens up a wide range of DeFi opportunities, including:
Yield Farming – Amplify returns by deploying sSOL across DeFi protocols.
Lending & Borrowing – Unlock liquidity without unstaking core assets.
Enhanced Security – Contribute to the decentralized security of Solana-based applications.
The Shared Security Advantage
Solayer introduces a Shared Security Model that allows dApps to leverage Solayer’s validator network, removing the need to build and maintain their own. This creates a dynamic where:
dApps with more sSOL staked gain higher priority for blockspace and throughput (stake-weighted QoS).
Developers can focus on innovation without the overhead of validator management.
The overall network becomes more secure, scalable, and accessible.
Solayer’s Vision
The mission of Solayer is to become the security backbone of Solana. By unifying liquidity and security through restaking, the protocol ensures that every Solana dApp can scale sustainably, supported by a decentralized yet efficient validator infrastructure.
The Bigger Picture
With the rapid adoption of restaking across ecosystems, Solayer positions itself as Solana’s answer to EigenLayer, but with the added advantage of lower latency, higher throughput, and broader composability that Solana inherently provides.
This innovation doesn’t just unlock yield opportunities — it strengthens the entire Solana ecosystem, making it more attractive for developers, investors, and institutions looking for a high-performance, secure blockchain environment.
In essence: @Solayer is more than a protocol; it’s a foundation for a more secure and liquid Solana ecosystem, shaping the future of decentralized finance and beyond.
