@Solayer (LAYER) is a cutting-edge restaking and liquidity protocol built on Solana, designed to make staking more rewarding and flexible. 🌐 Instead of locking up SOL and waiting for unbonding, Solayer lets you stake SOL or supported liquid staking tokens (LSTs) and receive sSOL, a liquid, yield-bearing token. 💧 This means your staked assets continue earning rewards while staying usable across DeFi – lending, trading, or providing liquidity.
How It Works ⚙️
1. Stake & Mint sSOL: Users deposit SOL or LSTs and mint sSOL, which accrues staking yield automatically. 🔄
2. Unified Liquidity Pools: Solayer combines assets into a single sSOL–SOL pool, improving liquidity and reducing slippage for swaps. 💱
3. Restaking to AVS: sSOL can be delegated to Actively Validated Services (AVS) like dApps or protocols, generating extra yield while supporting Solana’s ecosystem. 🌱
4. Integrations & Yield Farming: Partnerships with platforms like Kamino Finance and Orca allow automated vaults and liquidity mining for additional rewards. 💹
Why It Matters 🌟
Liquidity + Yield: Instead of choosing between staking and liquidity, Solayer offers both.
Ecosystem Support: AVS restaking secures and powers decentralized applications.
Capital Efficiency: Unified pools and liquid tokens make DeFi on Solana smoother.
The $LAYER Token 🔑
Solayer’s native token, LAYER, is built on Solana’s SPL-2020 standard. It drives:
Governance: Community can vote on upgrades and protocol changes. 🗳️
Incentives: Rewards for validators, liquidity providers, and early adopters. 🎁
Utility Expansion: Future roles in gas, fees, and ecosystem rewards.
The Solayer Foundation also introduced sUSD, a stable, yield-bearing token backed by real-world assets like US T-bills, adding another DeFi building block. 💵
Growth & Adoption 📈
Since its launch, Solayer has gained momentum:
$350M+ in restaked assets (~1.8M SOL)
Early user airdrops, listings on major platforms like Binance, Bitget, LCX
Strong community support on Reddit, Twitter, and Solana forums
Restaking is quickly becoming a key trend, and Solayer is at the forefront on Solana, combining liquidity, yield, and ecosystem support in one protocol.
