Custom Liquid Staking

BlazeStake introduced a groundbreaking approach to liquid staking with its Custom Liquid Staking (CLS) protocol, setting a precedent as the first stake pool to empower delegators with complete autonomy over their delegation choices. This unique feature enables individuals to engage in liquid staking with specific validators of their choosing, a capability exclusive to BlazeStake within the Solana ecosystem.

The CLS mechanism is operational from the moment of staking. Should you opt to stake with a designated validator through BlazeStake, the CLS protocol meticulously records the transaction. It logs the quantity of SOL allocated to your chosen validator and issues an equivalent amount of bSOL tokens to your wallet, establishing a direct 1:1 staking relationship.

The protocol ensures that the bSOL balance in your wallet corresponds to your staked SOL. If the bSOL balance falls below the required threshold, the staked amount to the specific validator adjusts accordingly. The versatility of CLS extends to supporting multiple custom validators for a single wallet. In scenarios where the bSOL balance doesn't meet the collective minimum threshold for all selected validators, the staked amount to each is proportionally reduced until the bSOL in your wallet aligns with the SOL staked.

Moreover, CLS demonstrates advanced capabilities by aggregating bSOL positions across supported DeFi platforms under your control, providing a comprehensive view of your bSOL assets. This aggregation ensures the maintenance of the 1:1 staking relationship, reflecting the total SOL you have staked through the CLS protocol.
