Native staking
Delegate SOL directly to Cirro. Your wallet controls the stake account, and rewards accumulate in SOL.
- Choose your validator directly.
- Keep your position in SOL.
- Unstaking follows network epoch timing.
Choose your staking approach. Delegate with confidence.
Support an independent operator with a clear commitment to Solana. Choose the staking approach that fits how you hold and use SOL.
gVot34jauJpexBL2YUSPBKsmZ4V2ffmDcRk4yfSEnx8Delegate SOL directly to Cirro. Your wallet controls the stake account, and rewards accumulate in SOL.
Receive a liquid staking token representing staked SOL. Hold it, trade it or use it in supported DeFi applications.
Have SOL available for your delegation, transaction fees and the stake-account reserve. Current wallet guidance requires at least 1 SOL for a new native delegation. Verify the amount and fees in your wallet.
Open your funded Solflare wallet and select the Staking tab.
Choose Stake and enter the amount of SOL you want to delegate. Select native staking if prompted.
Choose the validator and match our full vote account. Review the displayed commission and performance.
Check the delegation amount, validator and fees, then approve the transaction in your wallet.
Find the new account in Staking. Rewards begin once the stake is active; activation follows network epochs.
In the Phantom browser extension, select Solana from your token list.
Open More, select Stake SOL, then choose Native Staking.
Choose our validator, confirming the full vote account rather than relying on the display name.
Enter your SOL amount, leave a balance for fees, then review and approve Stake.
The account starts as Activating. View it under Native Stakes; rewards begin when it becomes Active.
The vote account identifies our validator. Do not send SOL to it using your wallet’s normal Send function.
Stake SOL through Cirro’s gS pool and receive a token representing your stake. Hold it as rewards accrue, transfer it or use it with supported Solana applications.
Choose Liquid in the Cirro staking app and select SOL. Check the estimated gS, minimum received and transaction fee, then select Stake and approve in your wallet. Keep a little SOL available for fees and token-account setup. Your gS is delivered to your wallet. USDC and USDT conversions are not enabled yet; the token selector shows which routes are available.
Stake nowCompare current historical APY on our staking page. Rates are annualised estimates of past rewards, with reinvestment assumed. They are not a promise of future returns.
Validator Cockpit supplies Cirro’s net native APY, using complete epochs closest to a 50-day window with measured durations. It includes inflation rewards after validator commission and reconciled Jito delegator MEV after MEV commission. Ordinary native delegation does not include operator-funded block reward sharing, unallocated priority fees or liquid-staking distributions.
LST Radar supplies gS’s headline APY from recorded growth in SOL backing per token. The rate already reflects realised validator deductions and pool reward-fee dilution; we do not subtract them again. Pool value can also reflect bonuses or donations that the feed cannot separate from recurring rewards. Entry, exit, trading and transaction costs are excluded.
The Native view shows stake-account SOL, excluding rent reserves. The Liquid view shows the gross SOL backing of supported tokens held directly in your wallet, with separate counts for tokens and token accounts. It includes frozen holdings in the total, but frozen tokens cannot be converted.
Wallet balances are checked against Solana and cached briefly. Current liquid backing also requires a verified mint, pool and network epoch. If a held token cannot be valued, we show the priced portion separately and leave the full total unavailable. This value is not a swap or withdrawal quote; fees, slippage and pool liquidity can affect what you receive.
The gS chart values recorded SOL backing per token in US dollars using the SOL/USD exchange price at the same point in time. This is a backing-value estimate, not an executable swap quote. Observations are matched only within a three-hour freshness window; gaps remain gaps. Observed exchange-rate history begins in July 2026. Older APY records are kept separately and are not converted into invented historical prices.
View staking ratesConnect your wallet to load your public SOL balance, native stake accounts and supported token holdings. Reading or refreshing these accounts requires no signature and no network fee. Cirro retains wallet addresses, balances, supported accounts and the time each was checked so returning visits need fewer network requests. Private keys remain in your wallet.
Holdings refresh when you connect or change accounts, select Refresh accounts, or complete an action through Cirro. Existing amounts remain visible with their last-checked time while a refresh runs. If it fails, the previous snapshot stays labeled and you can retry. Live conversion estimates and market prices update separately. Transaction preparation always checks current network state before you approve an action.
Phantom and Solflare are shown in the wallet chooser. Other compatible wallets, including Backpack and Jupiter, appear when detected. On supported Android devices, the mobile wallet option connects to a compatible wallet such as Seed Vault Wallet on Seeker.
For a Ledger account, select Using a Ledger before connecting through Phantom or Solflare, then select your hardware account in that wallet. When you choose a transaction, ownership verification may use a memo signed on the device. Cirro never submits that verification memo to the network. The actual staking transaction is a separate approval and carries its normal network fee.
For native staking, request unstaking in your wallet. Your stake normally becomes inactive at the next epoch boundary—the end of the current epoch. Once the account shows Inactive, you can withdraw your SOL whenever you’re ready; it does not return to your wallet automatically.
Network-wide stake cooldown limits can occasionally extend deactivation beyond one boundary. Always check the account’s status before withdrawing.
For liquid staking, review the available redemption or swap route. Timing, liquidity, fees and the amount received depend on the protocol and market conditions.
