I. Get SOL The first step toward exploring Solana is buying its native token; $SOL can be purchased on any major centralized exchange (CEX). Some of the top CEXs are: - @coinbase - @binance - @krakenfx Tip: Use a payment method that allows for instant crypto withdrawals.

III. Secure Your Wallet You'll be given a 12-24 word seed phrase as the key to your wallet. Write it down on paper and keep it somewhere safe. Do not keep it on your devices. If you ever lose your devices, this seed phrase will be the only key to access your wallet again.

3/11 LSTs are reward-bearing. This means their balance in your wallet does not change, but their value compared to SOL increases over time. In addition to this value accrual from staking yield, validator LSTs can run incentive or loyalty programs.

8/11 What about the different yields? Yields have a variety of factors. These factors include inflation rate, validator uptime, validator fee (commission), and percentage of network stake.

7/11 With Sanctum's innovative approach, the liquid staking scene on Solana is poised for expansion. They’ve launched validator-specific LSTs which offer the benefits of native staking with added liquidity, encouraging wider adoption and use of staked SOL in the economy.

9/11 How does staking APY get to the LST holder? The SOL used to trade for the LST is sent to a stake account with the LST’s validator. The staking rewards from that SOL are then added to the market value of the LST, unlike native staking where you are distributed the staking

10/11 Despite these benefits, liquid staking hasn't reached its full potential yet, with less than 5% of staked SOL being liquid staked. By addressing this liquidity issue and making it as user-friendly as possible, Sanctum is positioned to support broader adoption.

2/11 Solana staking involves pledging tokens to validators securing the network. Liquid staking differs; you receive Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs), representing your staked SOL. These tokens, akin to SOL, can be traded and utilized in diverse financial applications.
