Introduction

Staking is a cornerstone of the Solana ecosystem, enabling participants to help secure the network while earning rewards. By delegating your SOL tokens to a trusted validator, you contribute to the network’s decentralization and robustness. At xLabs, we are proud to play a pivotal role in decentralizing Solana’s validator network by being the first Argentina-based validator and only on of three in South America, a region brimming with untapped potential for blockchain innovation.

Staking with xLabs is easy and below we will provide a few videos on how to stake through your wallet provider.
