Bitget Wallet Launches Native Solana Staking with Dedicated Validator

Bitget Wallet has introduced Solana staking by operating its own validator infrastructure. Now, it will offer users direct access to onchain protocol yield of over 6% for their SOL holdings.

Bitget Wallet, positioned as a leading everyday finance application, has introduced a native staking framework built on a self-operated validator infrastructure. The initiative starts with support for the Solana (SOL) network. This strategic expansion is designed to provide users with a safer and more transparent staking environment. This will grant direct, self-custodial access to protocol-level rewards without relying on third-party node providers.

The launch allows users to stake SOL directly within the wallet’s Earn section with an annualized onchain yield exceeding 6%. By operating its own validator, Bitget Wallet retains full operational oversight, as well as enhances node performance and the overall predictability of the staking process. This approach aligns with a broader strategy to establish a security-first native staking ecosystem across multiple major blockchains.

This initiative coincides with current market conditions where investors are increasingly seeking predictable, asset-denominated rewards to accumulate long-term positions, as evidenced by over 67% of the eligible SOL supply already staked. The launch strengthens Bitget Wallet’s value proposition by bridging the gap between basic wallet functions and opportunities for users to grow their holdings through secure yield mechanisms.
