The Problem

Solana's liquid-staking ecosystem fragmented into hundreds of single-validator LSTs with separate liquidity, making it hard for users to enter and exit positions or for DeFi protocols to support more than a handful.

The Solution

Sanctum collapses all whitelisted Solana LSTs into one shared liquidity layer via Router + Infinity + Reserve, so any LST can be swapped 1-hop into any other and SOL exit is instant via the Reserve.

Why it Matters

First and only multi-LST liquidity pool on Solana with a programmatic router and instant-exit reserve; powers nearly every Solana LST including jitoSOL, bSOL, mSOL, dSOL, INF and the long tail of validator LSTs.
