Smart Delegation Strategy

JPool's Smart Delegation Strategy for distributing stake between validators in the JPool Delegation Program

PreviousHow to join the JPool Delegation ProgramNextInclusion and removal criteria

Last updated 15 days ago

JPool continuously monitors Solana validators using a set of performance and reliability metrics to determine their eligibility for the JPool Delegation Program. Every epoch, JPool removes validators that no longer meet the criteria. Every five epochs, new eligible validators are added, and stake is across all active participants.

JPool maintains a reserve account that holds 10% of the total staked SOL. This reserve is primarily used to fulfill large withdrawal requests. If a withdrawal reduces the reserve below the 10% threshold, JPool replenishes it by proportionally reducing the stake of all participating validators. On the other hand, if a large deposit is made, the added stake is distributed among eligible validators during the current epoch.
