    Description

    Net APR

    Net APR = Staking APR + (Staking APR − Borrow Rate) × Leverage

    Borrow Rate

    How Margin Staked SOL Works

    Staking SOL

    Stake your SOL into Margin Staked SOL. The system will automatically borrow funds based on your selected leverage and allocate both your own and borrowed funds across multiple validators to enhance network security and decentralization.

     

     

     

    Earning bbSOL

    By staking, you'll receive bbSOL — Bybit's Liquid Staking Token — as proof of your staked SOL. These tokens will be held as a position on the Bybit platform.

     

     

     

    Yield Accrual

    Sanctum's smart contract automatically allocates your staked assets to various nodes for optimal rewards. The value of bbSOL grows consistently and can be redeemed later for your SOL principal plus any earned rewards.

     

     

     

    Redemption

    Redeem your bbSOL for SOL at any time. Once the borrowed amount is repaid, any remaining SOL will be credited to your Funding Account.

     

     

     

     

     

    Example

    Let's say Alice stakes 100 SOL into Margin Staked SOL and selects a leverage of 2x. The system will automatically borrow an additional 200 SOL (100 SOL × 2). This brings the total staked amount to 300 SOL (100 SOL + 200 SOL), with any applicable fees deducted from this total. The system then calculates the amount of bbSOL Alice will receive based on the final staked amount.

     

    Whenever Alice decides to unstake, she can redeem her principal along with any staking rewards she has earned. During this process, the system will automatically repay the borrowed amount and any accrued interest. Any remaining balance will be credited to Alice's Funding Account as her yield. Simply put, a yield is generated when the staking rewards exceed the borrowing costs.

     

     

    Notes:

    — The figures in the above example are for illustrative purposes only and may not represent actual calculations.

    — Margin Staked SOL only supports SOL in the Funding Account. Borrowed assets cannot be withdrawn for other purposes and are locked within the positions to earn yield.

    — You can choose between Instant Redemption and Postponed Redemption. Instant Redemption is subject to a daily limit set by the platform. Additionally, redemptions of up to 400,000 SOL can be processed instantly, while amounts exceeding 400,000 SOL may require a 2–4 day waiting period for validator nodes to complete the process.

    — No manual repayment is required. The system automatically handles repayments when: 

    1. assets are redeemed, or 

    2. a stop-loss is triggered. 

    Additional fees, including gas fees, may apply during this process.
