Okay, so you’ve got some SOL in your wallet – what is there to do with it?
Liquid staking is becoming a more popular option; this entails staking your SOL to a staking pool rather than directly to the Solana network. In doing so, you receive a token representing your staked SOL, i.e. a Liquid Staking Token (LST).
Sanctum has been garnering attention for its Wonderland rewards initiative which takes things a step further, letting you put your SOL LSTs to work in an additional rewards program for a potential airdrop with just a few clicks.
Here's how to get started with Wonderland 👇
