Jupiter is a Solana validator operated by the Jupiter aggregator team with 12,543,166 SOL of activated stake at epoch 971, equal to 0.812% of network stake (per Stakewiz). Vote account CatzoSMUkTRidT5DwBxAC2pEtnwMBTpkCepHkFgZDiqb; identity account JupmVLmA8RoyTUbTMMuTtoPWHEiNQobxgTeGTrPNkzT.

Identity

The Jupiter validator backs JupSOL, the LST issued by the Jupiter team. The on-chain Stakewiz description reads: "Jupiter Validator, 0% Commission, 0% MEV Commission, and 100% Priority Fees Kickback via JupSOL." The validator is the staking endpoint for SOL deposited into JupSOL and is operated as part of the broader Jupiter aggregator product surface.

Performance metrics

  • Wiz Score: 39.96 at epoch 971 (per Stakewiz). The score is constrained by Stakewiz's ASN concentration penalty (see Decentralization signals).
  • 30-day trailing skip rate: 0.008% (Stakewiz wiz_skip_rate, epoch 971) vs. 0.14% network median per Stakewiz cluster statistics.
  • Vote success: 99.71%; credit ratio under Timely Vote Credits: 99.8% 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: 5.94% (epoch 971, including Jito MEV rewards, per Stakewiz).
  • Staking APY component: 5.81%; Jito MEV APY component: 0.13%.
  • Jupiter additionally routes 100% of priority fees back to JupSOL holders per its public product page — that mechanic is product-level, separate from the on-chain validator commission visible to Stakewiz.

Infrastructure

  • ASN: AS20326, TeraSwitch.
  • Datacenter location: Frankfurt, Germany.
  • Validator software version: Agave 3.1.14 at epoch 971 (per Stakewiz version).

Decentralization signals

  • ASN concentration: 29.64% 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 same TeraSwitch ASN that hosts Helius and is the dominant ASN by Solana stake, network-wide at approximately 29% concentration. 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.
  • City concentration: 22.42% of network stake in Frankfurt — well above the SFDP 15% data-center concentration ceiling, though that ceiling applies at the datacenter level rather than the city level.
  • The combination of TeraSwitch AS20326 plus Frankfurt city placement is the dominant infrastructure concentration cluster on the Solana network at epoch 971.

MEV policy

Jupiter 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 (JupSOL holders, in this validator's primary staker population). Combined with 0% base commission, the on-chain pass-through to stakers is 100% of both inflation and MEV rewards before the JupSOL product overlay.

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 29.64% 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 12,543,166 SOL is also above the 1,000,000 SOL ceiling at which Foundation residual and matching delegation are withdrawn. Jupiter operates its own stake pool via JupSOL rather than relying on external pool inclusion; Stakewiz does not directly surface Marinade SAM or Jito Stake Pool inclusion in the API fields used here.

Stake history

Activated stake at epoch 971: 12,543,166 SOL = 0.812% of network. The stake base is predominantly JupSOL-backing deposits routed by the Jupiter aggregator product. Historical stake-trend queries were not performed for this entry.
