How do I stake SOL with the OKX Earn validator?+
Connect your Solana wallet, enter the amount of SOL you want to stake, and select the OKX Earn validator as your target. The staking transaction will create a new stake account and delegate it.

How are staking rewards distributed?+
Solana staking rewards are distributed automatically at the end of each epoch (approximately every 2–3 days). Rewards are added directly to your stake account balance and compound automatically. The validator takes their commission percentage before distributing the remainder to delegators proportional to their stake.
How do I unstake my SOL from the OKX Earn validator?+
To unstake, select your stake account and click the unstake button. Your stake will enter a cooldown period lasting one epoch (approximately 2–3 days). After the cooldown completes, your SOL becomes withdrawable back to your wallet. If you have MEV rewards, you can harvest them before unstaking.
