Introducing up to 6% APR on Solana Staking for Gemini Customers

Gemini is pleased to announce that Solana is now available to stake for US-based Gemini customers outside of New York, joining Ethereum and Polymatic.
Now, you can become part of Solana’s proof-of-stake (POS) ecosystem. In exchange, you can receive up to 6% APR on your Solana.
What’s Staking?
Staking an asset earns you a reward by locking up your cryptocurrency to help secure a blockchain network. When you stake your crypto, you're participating in validating transactions and maintaining the network’s security, and in return, you receive additional crypto as a reward.
Solana staking takes place on a decentralized platform using smart contracts. Node operators add blocks to the blockchain and earn staking rewards for their effort. In exchange, these node operators dedicate tokens to a network to increase the number of block validations, helping strengthen and build out the ecosystem.
In service of quality control, Node operators who perform invalid functions, such as adding a corrupted block to the blockchain, could lose a portion of their pledged tokens. This is known as slashing.

Why Gemini?
Gemini’s validators are built to perform reliably. While losses (such as slashes) are rare, if they occur, Gemini may review the circumstances and consider reimbursement at its discretion. See the Gemini Staking Agreement here for more details.
The majority of your crypto is held in our offline, air-gapped cold storage system. Only a small portion is held in our online hot wallet, which is insured against certain types of losses.
Get Started
There is no minimum investment required to get started staking and users accrue rewards daily, depending on the network.
Sign up for Gemini Staking and earn rewards for your Solana today.
