Whitelabel Validator Nodes

Below is a list of all networks that can be supported via White Label nodes. For all nodes, the cost per node is charged at the end of each month. Node management, technical support, spinning up of new nodes, and any other overhead is managed by Yield.xyz. Fees can be flexibly set by the client with 100% of rewards being captured (no additional validator rev share applies). Nodes can be named according to the client’s own specifications as well to accommodate branding requests.

Particular attention ought to be paid to the “Active set minimum at the time of writing.” This threshold determines if the validator will earn any staking yield. StakeKit can facilitate funding of nodes on various networks.

TRX

Tron

21,200 TRX

N/A

To become an SR, a node must be in the top 27 validators and pay 9,999 TRX to enter the election. However, to become an SR Partner, a validator must be in the top 127. The minimum at the time of writing is 21,200 TRX.

ADA

Cardano

N/A*

N/A

N/A*

There is no minimum requirement for an operator to self-pledge in order to run a stake pool. However, reward distribution depends on the amount staked with the validator. The more ADA staked to a validator, the more blocks are produced, which can increase the frequency of rewards. For example, a validator with 1M ADA staked produces a block every 5 days, whereas a validator with 5k ADA staked produces a block every 1,000 days.

The pledge itself plays a small role in calculating earned rewards— the recommended pledge is 100,000 ADA. Additionally, there is no maximum capacity, but once above the saturation point (currently 75M ADA), earned rewards are diminished.

AVAX

Avalanche

2,000 AVAX

N/A

3,000,000 AVAX

The maximum weight is set at 3M AVAX, and a validator can not collect delegations exceeding 5 times its own stake. For example, if a user staked 2,000 AVAX to become a validator, they can only be delegated 8,000 AVAX.

SOL

Solana

0.02685864 SOL

N/A

N/A

No minimum and no limit on the number of active validators (note: can expect to incur up to 1.1 SOL per day in vote transaction fees).

NEAR

Near

N/A

11,110 NEAR

N/A

To become a validator, the minimum stake required is determined by the 300th-largest staking proposal. The current seat price is 11,110 NEAR.

XTZ

Tezos

6,000 XTZ

CELO

The current requirement is 10,000 CELO to register a validator.

GRT

The Graph

100,000 GRT

N/A

N/A

100k GRT is the minimum to become an indexer.

ONE

Harmony

10,001 ONE

N/A

N/A*

10,001 ONE is the minimum required to run a validator.
There is no maximum stake amount. However, validators with more stake than the median effective stake across all validators are “punished,” whereas validators with less stake than the median are “subsidized.” Currently, the median effective stake is 7,863,703 ONE.

POL

Polygon

10,000 POL

10,198 POL

N/A

After the PIP4 governance proposal was implemented at the contract level, the minimum staking amount increased to 10,000 POL. You must also maintain an adequate amount of ETH (typically 0.5–1 ETH) on your validator signer address on Ethereum Mainnet.

Currently, the system allows a maximum of 105 active validators at any given time (10,198 POL is the lowest). New validators can join the active set only when a currently active validator unbonds or is removed for low performance. You must first submit an application at the Polygon validators hub.

BNB

Binance

2,000 BNB

72,835 BNB

N/A

The minimum amount for self-delegation is 2,000 BNB. There are 45 validators in the active set; however, only the top 21 have a high chance of producing blocks while others have a lower chance. Currently, the minimum for the top 45 is 72,835 BNB, and the top 21 is 411,447 BNB.

DOT

Polkadot

N/A

1,145,072 DOT

N/A*

The minimum stake required to be elected as an active validator is dynamic and can change over time. The minimum to enter the active set is the lowest validator’s amount +1 — currently 1,145,072 DOT.

There is no maximum stake amount for a validator; however, it is often optimal to stake with a validator that has a lower-than-average validator stake in the active set, as users may receive higher rewards per staked token.
