Independent Solana analytics, staking & news — validator on mainnet since September 2021

Solana Compass is an independent Solana analytics and staking platform. We have operated a validator on Solana mainnet since September 2021, and the data it produces powers the network statistics, staking and validator analytics, and ecosystem news published across this site.

Everything we publish — from staking statistics and network analytics to Solana ecosystem news — is grounded in on-chain data we collect and verify against our own infrastructure. Read more about how our articles are produced in our editorial standards, or see where our data has been cited in the press.
