Performance metrics

  • Wiz Score: 17.74 at epoch 971 (per Stakewiz). The score is constrained by Stakewiz's ASN concentration penalty (see Decentralization signals).
  • 30-day trailing skip rate: 0.013% (Stakewiz wiz_skip_rate, epoch 971) vs. 0.14% network median per Stakewiz cluster statistics.
  • Vote success: 99.58%; credit ratio under Timely Vote Credits: 99.7% at epoch 971.
  • Delinquency status: not delinquent at the epoch 971 snapshot.
  • Uptime: 100% per Stakewiz.

Economics

  • Base commission: 0% at epoch 971.
  • Jito MEV commission: 0% (0 bps) at epoch 971.
  • Total APY: 6.02% (epoch 971, including Jito MEV rewards, per Stakewiz).
  • Staking APY component: 5.89%; Jito MEV APY component: 0.13%.

Infrastructure

  • ASN: AS20326, TeraSwitch.
  • Datacenter location: Amsterdam, Netherlands.
  • Validator software version: Agave 4.0.0-beta.7 at epoch 971 (per Stakewiz version) — a beta-channel build of the upcoming major Agave release.

Decentralization signals

  • ASN concentration: 30.70% of network stake on AS20326 (per Stakewiz, epoch 971) — above the SFDP 25% ASN concentration threshold that took effect May 1, 2026. AS20326 is the TeraSwitch ASN that is the dominant ASN by Solana stake, network-wide at approximately 29-31% across snapshots. Validators on AS20326 face the SFDP threshold breach directly; participating validators on this ASN must either migrate hosting or accept SFDP ineligibility under the May 2026 rules. The Amsterdam location places this node on the same ASN as Frankfurt-hosted TeraSwitch validators including Jupiter and Helius, even though the city-level placement differs.
  • City concentration: 20.32% of network stake in Amsterdam.

MEV policy

Bitwise Onchain Solutions runs the Jito client (is_jito: true per Stakewiz), making it MEV-enabled and able to earn rewards through the Jito Block Engine. Jito MEV commission of 0% (0 bps) is retained by the operator at epoch 971; the full 100% of bundled MEV revenue passes to stakers. Combined with 0% base commission, the on-chain pass-through to stakers is 100% of both inflation and MEV rewards.

Delegation programs

The 0% base commission is within the SFDP base-commission cap of 5%, and the 0% Jito MEV commission is within the SFDP Jito MEV cap of 10%. However, the 30.70% ASN concentration on AS20326 exceeds the 25% SFDP infrastructure threshold effective May 1, 2026, which would block SFDP participation on infrastructure grounds at this hosting setup. Activated stake of 7,995,160 SOL is above the 1,000,000 SOL ceiling at which Foundation residual and matching delegation are withdrawn. Stake-pool inclusion (Marinade SAM, Jito Stake Pool, SolBlaze) is governed by each pool's independent selection criteria. For live performance, see solana-scout.
