Solana Get MEV rewards by staking with P2P on Solana

<p>We are pleased to announce that P2P has launched an MEV-enabled client on Solana validators which will allow P2P stakers to receive extra rewards from MEV starting today. <br></p><p>Maximum extractable value (MEV) is a growing capability in blockchain. It refers to the maximum profit a validator can make through its ability to include, exclude, or reorder transactions in the blocks it creates.  By running a MEV-enabled client on validators, P2Ps gain access to MEV Opportunities, which can increase staker APR while having a positive impact on the quality of the Solana network.</p><h3 id="mev-boosted-client-adoption">MEV-boosted client adoption</h3><p>To maximize MEV rewards for stakers, P2P will use the open-source Jito-Solana Client, which has been <a href="https://jito-foundation.gitbook.io/mev/audits/audits?ref=p2p.org">audited by Neodyme</a>, a leading security and blockchain auditing firm. Jito-Solana represents a meaningful improvement to Solana’s validator software. It was intentionally designed to maximize MEV rewards and optimize their distribution to network validators and stakers. In addition, Jito-Solana was designed to combat spam and improve network efficiency. One of the ways that Jito-Solana achieved this is through its optimization of transaction processing. Jito-Solana offers more efficient transaction processing by bundling transactions and optimizing transaction ordering, which reduces the number of duplicated and unnecessary transactions and enables faster processing times.</p><p>For implementation, we conducted an in-depth analysis of the impact of the Jito MEV client on Solana’s network performance and adoption among Solana validators. You can find the full report <a href="https://p2p.org/economy/jitos-mev-boosted-client-adoption-impact-on-solana-validators-performance/">here</a>. </p><p>The key takeaways are:</p><ul><li>The Jito client has been gaining traction among Solana validator operators, as reflected by the growing number of validators running the client (currently 80), their total active stake (~55M SOL), and their market share (~15%).</li><li>We also observed a decrease in the average active stake per validator using the Jito client which indicates that more validators with smaller stakes are adopting the software. This trend is a positive sign as it shows that even smaller validators can successfully run the Jito client. The Jito client democratizes access to MEV with equal treatment for all validators. The growth in adoption by lower-stake validators demonstrates a strong interest in MEV opportunities from a community that was previously unable to access these benefits.</li><li>The total Jito-generated MEV rewards are currently relatively low due to limited adoption and lack of MEV searcher participation. This situation should improve with broader adoption of the client and as searchers become more accustomed to the new tools. We observed a significant increase in MEV rewards after January 2023 suggesting that a large DeFi participant started using Jito's MEV extraction tools and we believe that others will soon follow.</li><li>Jito-enabled validators have shown higher average uptime, a higher number of vote credits, and a significantly higher stake-weighted average block production rate.</li><li>Careful statistical analysis showed that block production rate for validators that switched to the Jito client has increased significantly. The increase is likely due to the more efficient transaction processing enabled by the Jito client's optimized block engine.</li></ul><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/YjlzfIMapEo0xV1CVCjMjZYeX1VMVKYrb-_mYKrB5D0_Ts3e6SqmHxcAnZOSO2fhMr1gA0lWNRPABEWSp62KhP5ZeU4P4AlhJgCPmj_ro9r-SV-hoEPLfV-tWq5oj-L-JpZ0aIhJU2h-0GSLwgDuUwI" class="kg-image" alt loading="lazy" width="624" height="361"></figure><p>Based on our research, we believe that the Jito client is a valuable addition to the Solana ecosystem, providing validators and their delegates with a new revenue stream from MEV capabilities while also improving the Solana network stability. Feel free to view the validator performance data, MEV validators rewards, MEV stakers rewards, and more using the public P2P Validator dashboard at: <a href="https://reports.p2p.org/superset/dashboard/jito_client_adoption/?ref=p2p.org">https://reports.p2p.org/superset/dashboard/jito_client_adoption/</a>.</p><h3 id="security-assurance">Security assurance</h3><p>To implement the MEV client on P2P nodes, automation was prepared and tested to seamlessly switch between Jito and the standard Solana client with 0-downtime in this case. Infrastructure security is the most important thing and we would like to add details about the possible security risks validators may face when switching to the Jito client.</p><p>Basically, Jito client is a set of patches applied to a standard Solana client, so theoretically it may have new vulnerabilities or performance degradations in some situations on current or future releases. We discussed these issues with Jito labs and found that 2 independent auditors checked Jito code base and checked the stability of the client on our testnet validator.</p><p>Although the probability of validator performance degradation caused by Jito client is not zero, we don’t think it is a big problem since we always monitor the performance of our validators against cluster average performance statistics (vote success rate, block skip rate) with automated alerting if performance issues are detected. Generally, our monitoring system will allow us to make quick decisions about falling back to a standard Solana client.</p><p>There are certain things that must be taken into account when switching to a standard Solana client:</p><ul><li>Solana Foundation releases a new client with a request to update immediately. Usually, it happens, when the Foundation wants to close a vulnerability or fix stability issues. Jito labs need days or weeks to release its patched version (since it requires a lot of testing) so in such cases, we will switch to the standard client and wait for the Jito client release.</li><li>We detect abnormal behavior of a validator according to our monitoring metrics or detect significant performance degradation (for example vote success rate is lower than the cluster average).</li><li>We receive information from public or closed sources about a vulnerability revealed in the Jito client. In this case, all our validators immediately get moved to a standard client and we will get in touch with Jito labs to clarify the situation.</li></ul><p>If switching to a standard client happened and it has been going on for more than 2 weeks we will notify you about that on our <a href="https://twitter.com/P2Pvalidator?ref=p2p.org">Twitter</a>, so please subscribe to our Twitter to be up-to-date about our services</p><p>We believe that adopting the Jito client will drive MEV rewards. Performance should also improve even further as the client becomes more widely adopted and as searchers become accustomed to the new tools.</p><h3 id="sharing-mev-rewards-with-sol-stakers">Sharing MEV rewards with SOL stakers</h3><p>New and old P2P stakers alike have the opportunity to increase their revenue through extra MEV rewards. P2P will take an 8% commission from MEV rewards, distributing 92% of the rewards to stakers, according to their share.</p><p>The Jito Tip Distribution Program is the on-chain program that collects and distributes MEV rewards to eligible validators and stakers. At the end of an epoch, the MEV rewards earned by a validator are stored in a special account derived from the validator's vote account and the corresponding epoch.</p><p>Once the epoch is over, the validator generates a data structure containing the rewards claims for all validators and stake accounts and uploads it on-chain. Then validators and stakers receive the MEV rewards in the form of an automatic airdrop performed by Jito to the validators’ vote accounts and stakers stake accounts. The claim action is permissionless, meaning others could execute it if Jito failed to do so properly. Note that distributed rewards are not automatically staked (auto compounded) and the stake account owner is required to withdraw or stake the airdropped rewards.</p><p>Stakers and validators can check their rewards using the <a href="https://reports.p2p.org/superset/dashboard/jito_client_adoption/?ref=p2p.org">P2P Validator’s dashboard with Jito &amp; MEV </a>statistics or <a href="https://jito.retool.com/embedded/public/e9932354-a5bb-44ef-bce3-6fbb7b187a89?ref=p2p.org">Jito’s MEV rewards dashboard</a>. Anyone can check their rewards using public explorers, the details to do so are available in <a href="https://jito-foundation.gitbook.io/mev/mev-payment-and-distribution/faqs?ref=p2p.org">Jito’s documentation</a>.</p><h3 id="about-p2p">About P2P</h3><p>P2P Validator began in 2018 with a mission to positively influence the development of POS technologies. At the time of the latest update, more than 750 million USD value is staked with P2P Validator by over 35,000 delegators across 40+ networks. We work closely with each network we support to push the developments of each project to new limits. <br></p><p>Beginning as seed investors and validating from the genesis block, we have shown tremendous support to the Solana ecosystem since day one and are now trusted with over $120m under management. Our proficiency is shown not only by our excellent validating track record &amp; our published research papers written on network performance (<a href="https://www.stakingrewards.com/journal/solana-validators-performance-research-report-part-1-downtime-analysis/?ref=p2p.org">Downtime</a>, <a href="https://www.stakingrewards.com/journal/solana-validators-performance-research-report-part-2-skip-rate-analysis/?ref=p2p.org">Skip Rate</a>) to improve the network health and development, but also by our involvement across projects including <a href="https://portalbridge.com/?ref=p2p.org#/transfer">Wormhole Bridge</a>, <a href="https://pyth.network/?ref=p2p.org">Pyth</a>, and <a href="https://neon-labs.org/?ref=p2p.org">Neon EVM</a> to help build Solana’s network infrastructure.<br></p>

Solana Lido on Solana: Validator's Set Vision

<p>Lido applies the same mission to all blockchains they participate in - to make staking simple, secure, and decentralized.  Each of the networks has its own specifics when it comes to "what a good validator set means”.</p><p>We propose a new way of developing the Lido validator's set on Solana and in our opinion, a sustainable and solid set should follow 3 principles:</p><p><strong>1. Validator set should be decentralized</strong></p><p>According to <a href="https://solanabeach.io/validators?ref=p2p.org">Solana Beach</a>, there are currently 1,788 validators on Solana, giving the network a Nakamoto Coefficient of 25. This means that the top 25 validators control enough staked Solana to collude and attack the network. The<a href="https://spl.solana.com/stake-pool?ref=p2p.org"> staking pool program</a> emerged with the goal to redistribute the stakes more evenly across the network. In our view, to create a decentralized set, we must adhere to the following rules:</p><ul><li>Increase the number of independent entities that create and maintain infrastructure for the network.</li><li>Increase censorship resistance by reducing the concentration of stake in the same data centers and jurisdictions.</li><li>Not distribute stake to the superminority group of validators.</li></ul><p>To make the Lido on Solana validator set more decentralized we plan to:</p><ul><li>Not add validators nodes from the superminority group to the Lido validator set</li><li>Increase the number of distributed nodes in the pool by removing barriers in the form of 100% commission nodes.</li><li>Bring in validators from other ecosystems and non-crypto projects.</li><li>Train new operators to configure and run nodes.</li><li>Assist validators with server configuration and data center location.</li><li>Onboard independent validators into the Solana cluster and Lido pool</li></ul><p><strong>2.</strong> <strong><strong>The set must be attractive for validators</strong></strong></p><p>To ensure a highly available and secure staking infrastructure, it is critical to consider the long-term sustainability of the operator and the ability to fund new equipment. Operators are responsible for managing risks, maintaining their node, ensuring the highest uptime possible, troubleshooting errors. To make the set more attractive to validators, we must adhere to the following rules:</p><ul><li>Operators must earn well enough to build a profitable, reliable staking business.</li><li>Validator nodes must be able to participate in subsidy programs (ex. SFDP)</li><li>Operators should receive marketing support to attract stakes.</li></ul><p>To make the Lido on Solana validator set more attractive to validators, we will do the following:</p><ul><li>Change the <a href="https://github.com/ChorusOne/solido?ref=p2p.org">smart contract</a> by removing 100% of nodes and adding the ability to use a public node in a cluster to participate in the Lido program</li><li>Create a P&amp;L tool to calculate validator yield and share it with the community.</li><li>Provide marketing support to validators in Lido’s set to increase the stake on their public node and help to build a profitable staking business.</li></ul><p><strong>3. <strong>The validator set has to bring value to the network</strong></strong></p><p>Validator performance metrics are, in our opinion, one of the most important criteria for developing the Solana ecosystem. The faster, cheaper, and more sustainable the network, the easier it is to attract investments, partners, and NFT/DeFi/P2E project developers, leading to the development of a sustainable community and product ecosystem.  For DeFi users, speed of transactions is important; for oracles, the ability to quickly provide more detailed data on a large number of quotes; for developers, a better user experience; for stakers, greater rewards on average and higher SOL price growth potential<strong>.</strong></p><p>To make the set more productive and sustainable the following rules should be adhered to:</p><ul><li>Operators must understand the value of metrics and be able to compare their performance with the best on the network</li><li>Operators must be notified about software updates</li><li>Operators must understand how to update without downtime</li></ul><p>To make the Lido on Solana validator set more stable and productive, we will do the following:</p><ul><li>Publish our vision of "good validator" performance metrics</li><li>Make a public dashboard displaying validator metrics</li><li>Make a system of alerts for problems with validator performance in the pool</li><li>Conduct education and share best practices for validator management in Solana</li></ul><h2 id="conclusion">Conclusion</h2><p>There are ~384.5M SOL staked on the Solana network, of which only ~9.7M SOL is distributed among various staking pools. P2P has partnered with Lido and stSOL since their launch as a validator and has been involved in the development of TVL in collaboration with Lido through incentives, integrations, and more. We see great potential for the development of liquid staking, which will increase economic activity and the speed of the economy in a decentralized network.  </p><p>Three key principles will form the basis of our new strategy:</p><ul><li>Truly decentralize the validator network by simplifying entry and adding validators from other ecosystems.</li><li>Make the network economically attractive for validators by dropping 100% nodes and marketing support from Lido</li><li>Ensure that the validator set works better for the network to ensure transactions are passed and various applications are running on the network. </li></ul><p>If you have ideas or suggestions for achieving our principles, we are always open to community feedback and consider it very important.</p><p>Join the new validator set! Together we will make Solana even more decentralized and sustainable!</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>

Marlin Marlin Protocol (POND) Staking Guide

<p>A step-by-step guide on how to stake POND/MPOND tokens using the Marlin staking platform together with Metamask or Wallet Connect.</p><p>Marlin is a layer-0 protocol focused on network-layer performance, security and robustness. Marlin Protocol speeds up block propagation of existing blockchains to enable higher throughput. </p><h2 id="marlin-protocol-staking">Marlin Protocol Staking</h2><p>When you stake POND or MPOND tokens, you are increasing the security of the Marlin network while earning more POND tokens by delegating your tokens to clusters that participate in Marlin network.</p><p>If you own a hardware device such as a Ledger Nano S or X, we strongly suggest using it for your staking operations.

NuCypher NuCypher Worker Node Monitoring Suite

<p>As part of the Technical Contributor Phase of NuCypher’s <a href="https://blog.nucypher.com/come-and-stake-it-incentivized-testnet/?utm_source=p2peconomy">Come And Stake It (CASI) Incentivized Testnet</a>, <a href="https://p2p.org/?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=economy&utm_campaign=NuCypher-monitoring">P2P Validator</a> has collaborated with <a href="http://www.nucypher.com/?ref=p2p.org">NuCypher</a> to provide an inexpensive and powerful <a href="https://github.com/p2p-org/nucypher-monitoring?ref=p2p.org">suite of self-hosted NuCypher node monitoring and alerting services</a> using Prometheus and Grafana. This suite is free and open-sourced so that anyone can make use of it to manage their NuCypher node infrastructure.</p><h2 id="the-need"><strong>The Need</strong></h2><p>The NuCypher Network is a decentralized network of nodes that uses proxy re-encryption to provide secrets management and dynamic access control services. The network facilitates end-to-end encrypted data sharing between parties without exposing plaintext data or private keys to the nodes.</p><p>NuCypher nodes are incentivized to maintain high uptime and availability to readily provide re-encryption services. Persistent downtime will cause nodes to forgo inflation rewards and policy fees. Therefore, identification and resolution of availability issues quickly is a requirement. This solution is aimed at those who independently set up and run the Worker according to the NuCypher documentation, but who do not have enough experience to implement monitoring and alerting on their own. After successfully running a Worker node, the user should be able to check the state of their node and receive timely alerts about issues that need to be addressed immediately.</p><h2 id="the-solution"><strong>The Solution</strong></h2><p>Our goal was to provide a seamless setup, simple configuration and enable the user to obtain up-to-date information about their ongoing node operations and the broader NuCypher network. We implemented a Worker endpoint that provides various node metrics and a Grafana dashboard to allow users to visualize these metrics and assess the state of their node.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://p2p.org/economy/content/images/2020/09/1-2.png" class="kg-image" alt loading="lazy" width="1240" height="444" srcset="https://p2p.org/economy/content/images/size/w600/2020/09/1-2.png 600w, https://p2p.org/economy/content/images/size/w1000/2020/09/1-2.png 1000w, https://p2p.org/economy/content/images/2020/09/1-2.png 1240w" sizes="(min-width: 720px) 720px"></figure><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://p2p.org/economy/content/images/2020/09/2-4.png" class="kg-image" alt loading="lazy" width="1240" height="780" srcset="https://p2p.org/economy/content/images/size/w600/2020/09/2-4.png 600w, https://p2p.org/economy/content/images/size/w1000/2020/09/2-4.png 1000w, https://p2p.org/economy/content/images/2020/09/2-4.png 1240w" sizes="(min-width: 720px) 720px"></figure><p>Metrics include:</p><ul><li>CPU / RAM / Disk / Network utilization</li><li>Realtime data on node workload</li><li>Account balances</li><li>Staker information</li><li>WorkLock status</li></ul><p>Furthermore, alerts can be provisioned based on these metrics through the dashboard to send timely messages when notable issues arise.

Cosmos How to Redelegate your ATOM with Ledger on p2p.org

<p>Our team have updated the delegation tool using the <strong><strong>Ledger</strong></strong> device on the <strong><strong>Cosmos network</strong></strong> so now users can <strong><strong>go through the redelegation process</strong></strong>.</p><blockquote><em><em>P2P.ORG - offers Secure &amp; Non-Custodial Staking. No operations are possible without your confirmation, we will not request or store your private key or initial phrase.</em></em></blockquote><p>The redelegation process allows you to change which validator you are delegating at any time and free of charge.</p><p>Use this function to change your validator if you are no longer satisfied with its services or terms. For example, high commission rates, long downtimes that reduce your rewards, or other factors.</p><p>The whole process of redelegating your ATOM is simple and can be done in a safe way in just a few minutes.</p><p>To <strong><strong>get started</strong></strong> just go to <a href="https://p2p.org/cosmos?utm_source=Cosmos_Redelegate&utm_medium=creds_link&utm_campaign=blog">p2p.org/cosmos</a>, click the <code>Stake with Ledger</code> button and select <code>Redelegate</code></p><h2 id="step-1-plug-in-your-ledger-device-and-open-the-cosmos-app"><strong>Step 1.

Staking How to delegate Cosmos Atoms using Lunie wallet

<p>Lunie (previous name “Voyager”) is an official audited web wallet and UI for interacting with the Cosmos Hub. The process of sending, staking and redelegating atoms could be done in a simple and secure way. Lunie will not ask for your private keys or seed phrases. To interact with it you need to have Ledger device. Following this two-step guide will not take more than 5-10 minutes.</p><blockquote><em><em><strong><strong>Note:</strong></strong> If you participated in the fundraiser, you should be in possession of a 12-word mnemonic. When setting up a Ledger wallet, enter the seed phrase to access your digital assets obtained through an ICO. We advise you to connect a new Ledger device, in case of replacing the seed phrase on the working device, all data will be overwritten.</em></em></blockquote><h2 id="step-1-set-up-your-ledger"><strong>Step 1.
