Solayer Restaking Pools, Delegation, and Liquidity Design on Solana
Article OKX Learn
Summary
The document describes Solayer as a Solana-based restaking protocol. Users deposit SOL or liquid staking tokens into a pool and receive sSOL, which can be delegated to active verification services. It outlines three components: a pool manager for deposits, a delegation manager for assigning stakes and issuing share tokens, and a reward accounting module for calculating rewards. It also describes a shared sSOL/SOL pool intended to let service-specific liquid staking tokens convert back to sSOL with less price impact and transaction cost.
Key ideas
- Solayer is presented as a restaking system built on Solana.
- Deposited SOL or liquid staking tokens are converted into sSOL for use across applications and verification services.
- A delegation component assigns sSOL to services and represents users’ staking shares with tokens.
- An accounting module calculates rewards, which the document says could support incentives such as loyalty programs or future airdrops.
- The shared pool design is intended to improve liquidity, but the article provides no independent performance evidence or detailed risk analysis.
