How to Stake Solana [Phantom Wallet, Desktop]

Описание: This video shows you how to stake Solana inside Phantom wallet. In this example, I am staking 1 $SOL with the Soladex validator using the Phantom wallet on Chrome (in my case I'm actually using Brave).

Staking Solana is a a good strategy if you believe that SOL is going to increase in value over time. The rewards APY for staking Solana depends on which validator you are staking with.

Don't be mislead by low fee offers. A 0% fee doesn't mean anything if the validator performance is poor. Soladex uses Solana Foundation approved hardware, including a 3.2ghz AMD EPYC processor (business grade threadripper), 256gb RAM, a 2TB NVME drive, and separate disks for the OS and the ledger.
