For the first time on @solana , you can separate staking yield from principal — and decide exactly where that yield goes. In this demo, we staked just 0.9 iaSOL. @inshAllahfi One epoch later — the yield is split. Principal stays staked, while the yield is redirected… in this case, straight to a verified charity. This isn’t a simulation. It’s live mainnet logic, not off-chain accounting using @sanctumso pool to calculate the price and make sure that the priciple always remains. What’s possible once yield becomes programmable? 1. Donate validator yield to a cause — without touching your stake. 2. Redirect staking rewards to yield-bearing assets. 3. Split rewards between wallets, DAOs, or treasuries. 4. Build new yield-based experiences — payments, loyalty, governance, even RWA-backed distributions. We call it ReYielding — the evolution of restaking. Where yield isn’t static… it’s programmable. Today it’s a simple charity flow. Tomorrow, it’s how institutions manage RWA yield, how DAOs fund grants, and how everyday users make staking purposeful. Yield direct & Yield donation will be live on @StakerDotFun real soon. This is the future of Solana yield infrastructure — transparent, modular, and alive on mainnet. Built for the next era of programmable finance. solscan.io/tx/EpqHYkLNdrcE3h… @mert @toly @mattytay @n8levine @superteamIE @lmrankhan @SolanaLegend @SOLBigBrain @viktorfischer @David_RockawayX @EmiT87

Thats Right! @StakerDotFun officially entered the @colosseum Hackathon! Here's a message from one of our devs for @mattytay and @n8levine

The Next Era of Yield on @solana We’re entering a new phase of Solana staking — one where yield isn’t just something you earn, it’s something you use. For the longest time, staking was passive. You locked up SOL, earned 6–8% a year, and that was it. The problem? For most users, that doesn’t move the needle. Staking 1 or 2 SOL for months just to earn cents doesn’t feel meaningful — so millions of SOL sit idle, un-staked, diluting value and weakening decentralization. That’s changing. Solana’s yield landscape is evolving into something programmable. Validators, LSTs, and new protocols are turning yield into an active primitive — one that can fund real-world assets, drive ecosystem growth, or even power philanthropy. We’re calling this new design space Re-Yielding: the idea that staking income shouldn’t just sit still, it should be directed toward purpose. We’re seeing it everywhere. - @sanctumso is redefining the LST meta and liquidity routing. - @hylo_so and @kamino are reimagining restaking and composable yield. - DATs like @defidevcorp and @solstrategies are turning delegation itself into a strategy layer. It’s no longer about “higher APY.” It’s about what your yield does once it’s earned. Do you want it to compound into a stable yield funds? Do you want it to automatically rebalance into a tokenized equity position like $DFDVX? Do you want it to sponsor hackathons like @colosseum , or donate to charities — all without unstaking your principal? That’s the power of programmable yield. This evolution matters because it changes how both users and institutions think about staking. For users, it makes staking social and rewarding. For institutions, it turns staking into a capital management tool. For the ecosystem, it keeps SOL staked, validators decentralized, and yield flowing through builders instead of sitting idle in wallets. The way forward is clear: staking isn’t just a yield mechanism anymore. It’s becoming Solana’s distribution layer for value, purpose, and culture. Soon, every transaction, donation, sponsorship, or DAO reward could be powered by staking yield instead of fresh emissions. That’s sustainability. That’s Solana. Thats Staker.fun

💧 POOL PARTY IS LIVE! 🌊 @JPoolSolana just dropped $1,000 in $JSOL rewards — and you can join the fun directly on Staker.fun 🪩 Here’s how it works: For those on our private beta 1️⃣ Stake $SOL to JPool 2️⃣ Complete the JPool Quests now live on Staker.fun (Private Beta users only for now) 3️⃣ Earn XP, climb leaderboards & boost your chances to win Staker.fun turns staking into a SocialFi game — where stakers climb leaderboards, join token-gated chats, and soon, donate or split their yield into stablecoins, tokenized assets, or verified charities. 📢 LSTs & validators on Solana — DM us to get listed and be part of the staking quest system. We’re building the social layer of Solana staking Let’s make staking fun again. #StakeDifferent #Solana #LST #SocialFi #JPool

Why every @solana builder should enter the @colosseum Hackathon 🏛️ When we joined the first Colosseum hackathon, we didn’t walk away with a prize — we walked away with partnerships. Fast forward: multiple collaborations (including some we can’t even announce yet 👀), hundreds of users in private beta, and a rapidly growing waitlist — all from the visibility we gained by simply being seen on the Explore page. Colosseum isn’t just about winning; it’s a launchpad. It’s where Solana builders get discovered, funded, and connected. Massive respect to @mattytay and @n8levine for building this engine of opportunity for real builders. If you’re building on Solana — get in. Your next partner—or investor—could be scrolling the Explore page right now. ⚡️

We introduced staking quests, leaderboards, and token-gated chats… and now we’re adding something that actually changes the game. 🌍 Introducing Yield Donate — where staking meets purpose. Over 36% of SOL still sits idle. Why? For most users, staking a few SOL for a 7% APY just isn’t worth the effort. The returns feel too small to matter. But what if that same yield could do good? With Yield Donate, you can now direct your staking rewards to verified charities — all while keeping your principal staked and helping secure @solana. Live in private beta with: 🐾 @buddiesforpaws 💧 @TheWaterProject 👶 @SavetheChildren 🐢 @conserveturtles Stake LSTs like @jito_sol, BonkSOL, hSOL and more, choose how much yield to donate, and earn XP, badges, and exclusive perks for giving back. Instead of chasing APY, you’re creating impact — powering both validators and real-world change. And this is just the begining for us. Public launch next week, and more shipping to come!!! Let’s make staking fun again — and meaningful. 💚 @colosseum @mert @0xF812 @toly @bonk_inu @TheOnlyNom #StakeDifferent #Solana #StakerFun #LST #SolanaSummer
