Solana devs: You can build custom Proof-of-Stake networks on Solana! 🤯
Jito (Re)staking NCNs enable:
• Custom consensus
• Flexible liquid staking mechanisms
• Automated rewards distributions (and penalties)
🧵/8 - Here's how it works 👇️
2/8 What is an NCN?
Node Consensus Networks = A set of nodes achieves consensus on a result, and Solana facilitates stake, rewards distributions, and slashing logic.
Think of it as Solana's runtime becoming your consensus playground to build & innovate external networks.
3/8 The Jito (Re)staking protocol is made up of two programs:
restaking_program coordinates everything between nodes, vaults & operators
vault_program creates vaults with custom logic (KYC, Min deposits, Custom inflation, etc)
4/8 Components that make up an NCN
OFFCHAIN:
• Custom client software
• Operator automation
• Keeper scripts
ONCHAIN:
• State management
• Consensus verification
• Reward routing
Refer to the NCN implementation documentation:

5/8 TipRouter example:
• Takes operator snapshots to calculate stake-weights
• Operators generate a merkle tree of Jito tip & block reward distributions
• Operators cast votes to a Solana program on the correct distribution.
• >66% quorum triggers distributions and payouts
6/8 Rewards are 100% customizable.
TipRouter NCN example:
• 2.7% → DAO treasury
• 0.3% → Network participants
• Custom logic for operators vs stakers
7/8 Why this matters:
• Many Solana projects start centralized for speed. But users want decentralization.
• Before: Build new chain or stay centralized
• Now: Deploy NCN on Solana, leverage existing stake and node operators, decentralize gradually
Best of both worlds ⚡
8/8 Come build on Jito (Re)staking!
