How Secure is SolStrat's Validator?
l leverages the Solana native stake program to facilitate all fund operations, ensuring that the pool itself does not have direct access to your SOL. You can choose to unstake at any time.
The Solana stake pool program has undergone numorous security audits, and is widely recognized as a highly secure and reliable system. You can review the published audit reports here:

What is Staking?
Staking is the process of committing your SOL tokens to the Solana network to contribute to its security and operational integrity. In return, you earn rewards proportional to your staked amount. The process of delegating your SOL to validators (either through stake pools or native staking), assist the network in processing transactions and securing the network while benefiting you with passive income through staking rewards.

​
Who is a Delegator?
A delegator is any SOL holder who chooses to delegate their SOL. This delegation enables the validator to participate in confirming new blocks and maintaining network integrity. Delegators, whether staking directly or through a stake pool, earn rewards based on their contribution to the network.
Anyone with SOL in their wallet has the ability to delegate their stake and begin earning rewards.
​
What is a Stake Pool?
Stake pools provide a structured and efficient way for SOL holders to stake their tokens without the need for active management. According to Solana’s documentation, a stake pool is an on-chain program that aggregates SOL from multiple users and stakes it according to a defined strategy (see our stategy here). This allows users to participate in staking while benefiting from optimized validator selection and reward maximization.
When users deposit SOL into a stake pool, they receive SPL tokens (definSOL) representing their share of the pool’s total stake. As the stake pool earns rewards, the value of these tokens increases accordingly. Delegators can redeem these tokens for SOL at any time, ensuring flexibility and liquidity in their staking strategy.
​
What is a definSOL Token?
definSOL is the liquid staking token issued by Definity when you delegate your SOL. It represents your share in the total stake pool and can be redeemed for SOL at any time. The value of definSOL increases over time as staking rewards accrue, ensuring that when you unstake, you receive more SOL than initially deposited.
Holding definSOL provides the benefits of staking while maintaining liquidity, allowing you to utilize your stake in DeFi applications or trade on supported platforms.
​
How Do I Earn and Claim My Staking Rewards?
Your definSOL holdings automatically reflect the rewards earned by the stake pool. The rewards are compounded into the value of definSOL, meaning the definSOL-SOL exchange rate will increase over time as APY is accrued.​
When you choose to unstake, your SOL withdrawal amount will be determined based on the updated exchange rate, ensuring that your stake has grown in proportion to the pool’s overall performance.
Definity is committed to optimizing validator selection and staking strategies to maximize APY, ensuring that delegators receive the highest possible returns on their staked SOL.
