StakePoint is a non-custodial Solana DeFi platform that allows token projects to create custom staking pools for SPL tokens, Token-2022 tokens, dual-token rewards, and LP farming. Pool creators define the reward structure. StakePoint is NOT native Solana validator staking.
How It Works
StakePoint lets Solana token projects create staking pools without operating a proof-of-stake validator. A project creator deposits reward tokens and configures parameters such as staking token, reward token, pool duration, lock period, reward amount, and APR mechanics. Users then deposit eligible project tokens into the corresponding pool. The tokens are held in Solana Program Derived Addresses controlled by the smart contract rather than a traditional centralized custody account. Rewards accrue according to the individual pool's configuration.
APR Explanation
There is no single StakePoint staking APR. Pool APR is calculated based on factors including reward tokens funded by the creator, pool duration, amount currently staked, and lock structure. As more tokens enter a fixed reward pool, the effective APR can change. This makes StakePoint fundamentally different from native SOL staking, where rewards come from Solana validator participation. Do not describe a high project-token APR as equivalent to SOL staking yield.
Fees
Stake transaction: 2% platform fee + Solana network transaction fee. Unstake transaction: 2% platform fee + Solana network transaction fee. Pool creation: 1 SOL one-time fee. Claiming rewards: Standard Solana network fee only. Current documentation estimates ordinary network transactions around ~0.001–0.01 SOL depending on transaction/network conditions. Do not hardcode network fees as guaranteed.
Lock Periods
StakePoint supports both flexible pools (users can withdraw according to the pool's flexible rules) and locked pools (users must wait until the creator-configured lock period ends). Official documentation states pool lock periods can be configured over a wide range, including custom periods. Unstaking depends on individual pool configuration.
Security
StakePoint states that staked assets are held in Solana Program Derived Addresses and that its current staking program has been audited by Auditr. Smart-contract audits reduce some technical uncertainty but do not eliminate contract vulnerabilities, project-token price risk, reward-token risk, or malicious or poorly structured pool economics.
Risks
- Project-token price volatility
- Reward-token price volatility
- Smart-contract risk
- Pool creator configuration risk
- Lock-up risk
- Unsustainable/high nominal APR
- Low token liquidity
- Solana network conditions
A 100%+ APR in a project-token pool should not be interpreted as equivalent to a 100% return in fiat value.
