## Table of Contents

### Core Concepts

- [JSOL and APY](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/core-concepts/jsol-and-apy.md): What JSOL is and how APY works on JPool. JSOL is a liquid staking token that represents your share of the pool and grows in value as staking rewards accrue.
- [Using JSOL in DeFi](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/core-concepts/using-jsol-in-defi.md): How to use JSOL in DeFi. While your SOL stays staked and earning, JSOL can be used across Solana DeFi protocols for additional opportunities.
- [How rewards accrue](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/core-concepts/how-rewards-accrue.md): How staking rewards accrue on JPool. Understand Solana epochs, reward accrual, and the difference between instant and delayed unstaking.

### Staking Options

- [Ways to stake](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/strategies/overview.md): Compare the ways to stake on JPool. Liquid Staking and Native Staking for simple staking, plus the Smart, Direct, and Leveraged Staking strategies, each suited to a different risk profile and liquidity preference.
- [Liquid Staking](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/strategies/liquid-staking.md): Liquid Staking on JPool. Deposit SOL, receive JSOL, and let the Smart Delegation Engine select validators automatically while you keep full liquidity.
- [Native Staking](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/strategies/native-staking.md): Native Staking on JPool. Delegate SOL directly to a validator through the Solana protocol with no liquid token and minimal risk. Unstaking completes at the end of the current epoch.
- [Smart Staking](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/strategies/smart-staking.md): Smart Staking on JPool. Stake SOL and let JPool automatically place it into the highest-paying validator incentive campaigns, earning their rewards while your JSOL stays liquid.
- [Direct Staking](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/strategies/direct-staking.md): Direct Staking on JPool. Choose a validator, stake directly, bind existing JSOL, and earn incentive rewards from validators running campaigns.
- [Leveraged Staking](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/strategies/leveraged-staking.md): Leveraged Staking on JPool. Amplify your staking yield using flash loans from Kamino or Save, and manage liquidation risk with Health Factor and LTV monitoring.

### Deep Dives

- [Deep dive into incentive campaigns](https://docs.jpool.one/user-docs/strategies/incentive-campaigns.md): Deep dive into JPool incentive campaigns. How reward modes work (fixed and proportional), how to claim, lockups and early-exit penalties, what happens when you unstake, and claim fees.
