This guide will walk you through the process of staking SOL using Trust Wallet. SOL is the native asset of the Solana blockchain, known for its high-speed transactions and low fees, making it a popular choice for dApps and DeFi platforms.

Key Details for Staking SOL with Trust Wallet

Minimum Staking Amount: 0.01 SOL
Lockup Period: None (unbonding takes 2 days)
Note: During the staking period, both your staked SOL and any rewards generated remain locked. Users will not have access to these funds until the unstaking process is completed.
Staking Yield (APR): View current rates in the "Earn" section of the Trust Wallet app.
Important: Staking and rewards are managed by Trust Wallet’s partners. Therefore, Trust Wallet does not control the staking rate, lockup period, or minimum staking requirement. Lockup specifics, including any time frames for staking and unstaking, are determined by the SOL blockchain itself.
Stay Updated: Ensure you have the latest version of Trust Wallet to access the most current staking options. Download here.

How to Stake SOL

Open Trust Wallet, select Earn and go to Native Staking option.
Search for SOL and select it.

Tap Continue.
Review the details and select Confirm to complete the staking process.

How to Unstake SOL

From the main wallet page, go to Earn and select SOL.
Choose Unstake and follow the instructions to confirm.

Note: Once you click Unstake, your balance will not be reflected immediately in your wallet. It will remain in a lockup period of approximately 2 days before it appears in your wallet.
