Blockdaemon has launched a Stake for Builders Solana Validator to support builders, developers, and the broader SOL community. With commission set at 0%, we’ve removed fee barriers to staking, directly re-investing rewards into projects and individuals driving Solana’s growth. Designed as a public good, this validator delivers tangible value to the SOL network and its participants.

Supporting Solana’s Success

The Solana ecosystem is thriving, and Blockdaemon is committed to its long term growth.

Decentralized networks depend on the collective contributions of their community. Through our Stake for Builders Solana Validator, we pledge to allocate 80% of validator rewards to community-driven initiatives, including developer grants, hackathon prize pools, bug bounties, and other grassroots efforts.

Why Stake To Blockdaemon’s Stake for Builders Solana Validator? 

By staking with Blockdaemon’s Stake for Builders Solana Validator, you directly support projects and developers making a meaningful impact on the Solana network.

Solana validators are chosen to produce blocks through stake-weighted selection. More stake delegated means more block production and greater rewards. Our validator charges 0% commission on external delegations, meaning delegators keep all their rewards. Blockdaemon secures rewards only from its own self-stake, reinvesting them into community-focused initiatives. This approach encourages wider staking participation, directly benefits delegators, and helps fund programs important to Solana’s continued growth, creating a win-win for everyone involved.

Conclusion

Blockdaemon has operated Solana validators since 2020. We believe supporting Solana’s infrastructure means removing staking barriers and investing directly in grassroots teams. To maintain transparency, Blockdaemon will regularly publish reports detailing fund distribution.
