Coming soon

dApp update: Marinade's latest release has simplified the way to supply SOL liquidity to the unstake pool. Just visit the new "liquidity" page at the top of the dApp and earn trading fees on your SOL from instant unstake operations.

🚀🚀A new milestone achieved: Marinade Native has officially surpassed 2 million SOL! Over 600 stakers have already discovered the smartest way to Native stake on Solana. Have you?

Very nice analysis as always! Rapidly approaching 2M SOL staked to Marinade Native ...

1 SOL staked at Marinade is currently worth 2.4 SOL stake to validators due to the mSOL directed stake ratio. And validators like @SolanaCompass can direct some of that surplus back to stakers with Marinade’s Snapshots If Native grows faster than mSOL this ratio should grow

gm this is what the world would look like if I could use msol from @MarinadeFinance in my @tensor_hq bids/pools

Don't let your $SOL stack get diluted by Solana blockchain emissions And the performance of one validator shouldn't keep you up at night. Marinade's battle-tested algorithm to 100+ best validators can handle your liquid or native stake.

New name, but the same great validator and contributor to Solana DeFi 👏

The @SuperteamDAO community submitted 45 entries to Marinade's Deep Dive! These entries helped spread awareness on staking and liquid staking on Solana, as well as tell the Marinade story. It was tough to narrow down three winners, but here they are:

Yes indeed. MNDE incentives very soon 👇

Marinade was featured in this new feature from the DeFi Llama team on Solana liquid staking and how the new Marinade Native (nearly 2M staked 👀) plays a part:

dApp announcement: Marinade is planning an update of the two authorities used for its Native product on Wednesday (approx 10am CET). This will take ~1 hour and there will be no impact on Native staking performance or rewards. However, those who visit the Marinade dApp to unstake during this update may experience a frontend bug. A notification banner will be shown on the dApp while the update is taking place and be removed when it's complete. Marinade is also in communication with third parties such as explorers to ensure that their tools and products are updated to use the new authorities. Thanks, Chefs!

Very nice 🤝

Great update from Solscan! If you're using Marinade Native you can see these new displays:

This proposal officially passed on chain. Get ready for $MNDE rewards on Marinade Native and $mSOL stake Details shortly ...

Who's going? We'll be there

Staking with one validator vs automating your stake to 100+

SOL + Staked SOL Here, the relevant comparison is vs a 100% staked SOL position, since if you weren't providing liquidity you would supposedly want to earn yield on all your SOL. Kamino outperforms by 1~4% for all pairs 💪 The best-performing SOL-mSOL pool is incentivized.

Validators, the Current $mSOL Directed Stake ratio is pretty appealing. 546k SOL is directing over 1.4M SOL stake from Marinade. You can do the math (then add MNDE incentives)

Just staked 500 sol 🫡 long overdue! Support the network, support @solana Thanks @MarinadeFinance

Option 3 had the most votes! We will dollar cost average $2.5m each in mSOL and jitoSOL over a 3 month period.

12 hours left to vote 👇

Chefs, the first proposal on Realms is currently live: The proposal would launch a 3-month $MNDE incentives campaign for $mSOL and Native stakers. The campaign is designed to be stickier than previous liquidity mining by providing all participants with a fixed 1:1 MNDE-to-SOL ratio for tokens staked over the 3-month duration. The tokens would also be distributed as locked MNDE (30-day unlock period). The campaign would also support mSOL in the following Solana DeFi protocols via Snapshots: @solendprotocol , @marginfi , @RaydiumProtocol , @orca_so , @The_Saber_DAO , @mangomarkets , @DriftProtocol , and @superstakesol The vote is live for two more days.

MNDE incentives proposal incoming ...

Great thread on an incredible week for Solana. Start from the top!

DeFi's liquidity landscape needs a change Until now, LPs had to choose between complex, manual position management - or automated LP solutions that allow 0 user freedom Today, we launch Kamino Creator Vaults: a permissionless liquidity management primitive for @solana 🧵

Private token swaps x @MarinadeFinance = the ‘secret’ ingredient for @solana DeFi. 😉 With $mSOL supported by Elusiv, swapping between mSOL and other assets is now seamless. Swap privately here:

Is #Solana decentralized? Solana Mainnet TODAY has... - 2,849 full validating nodes (block producing + RPCs) - 1,967 block producers - Running in 297 distinct locations - In over 40 different countries - Nakamoto coefficient (a measure of stake distribution) of 31 - Multiple validator implementations in production ( @solanalabs and @jito_labs ). Jito validators control 28% of mainnet stake! - Two more independent validator implementations in the works by separate teams, in different languages (Firedancer written in C by @jump_firedancer and Sig written in Zig by @Syndica_io ) - Light clients @tinydancerio in the works All running smooth as silk, processing more transactions than every other chain, day in and day out, for fractions of a penny cost to users. This is not "a scaling roadmap" or "a path to decentralization". This is what a truly scalable, decentralized L1 blockchain looks like. In production. Today. This is #OnlyPossibleOnSolana
