Explore is where you can look at the Solana staking network itself: every active validator, what they charge, how they have performed, and where they run. You do not need to connect a wallet.
Open it from Explore in the top navigation, or go to app.marinade.finance/explore.
The Validator List
Network-wide figures sit at the top: active validators, total network stake, net APY (30 day average), and take rate (30 day average).
Below that, every validator, with net APY, take rate, incidents over the last 90 epochs, total stake, delegator count, country, and client software. Sort by any column, or filter the list to narrow it down.
A Validator's Page
Click any validator to open its page.
Total stake is all active stake delegated to that validator across every staker.
Net APY is the estimated net annual yield after commission, averaged over a 14 day rolling window. It is based on inflation rewards only, unless MEV-adjusted data is available for that validator.
Commission is the cut the validator takes from inflation rewards only, shown for the latest completed epoch.
Take rate, listed just beneath commission, is the cut taken from every kind of reward, inflation, MEV and block rewards, averaged over the last 30 days.
Stake history charts the validator's stake over 7 days, 30 days, 3 months, or its full history.
Activity shows the validator's record epoch by epoch, with a stability percentage and a count of healthy epochs. Any incidents are listed underneath with what happened, which epoch, when, and how long it lasted.
Stake concentration shows the validator's share of network stake, plus concentration at its data center and in its country, against a one third reference line.
Validator information lists identity and vote account, client version, active since date, node location and IP, hosting provider (the autonomous system number and the operator of the hosting network), the share of all Solana stake in that validator's city and at its provider, and delegators, the number of distinct wallets holding active stake with it.
FAQ
Q: Commission says 0% but take rate is higher. Which is right?
A: Both, they measure different things. Commission covers inflation rewards only and reflects the latest completed epoch. Take rate covers inflation, MEV and block rewards together, averaged over 30 days. Take rate is almost always the higher of the two because it counts more reward types, so a validator can advertise 0% commission and still keep a share of MEV and block rewards. Compare take rate.
Q: Why do the three headline numbers cover different periods?
A: Each is measured over the window that suits it. Commission is the latest completed epoch, net APY is a 14 day rolling average, and take rate is a 30 day average. They will not always move together.
Q: Do I need to connect my wallet?
A: No. Explore is public and read-only.
Q: Does Marinade stake to every validator listed?
A: No. Explore covers the whole Solana network, not just Marinade's validator set. Being listed is not an endorsement.
Q: What does Protected rewards mean?
A: The validator participates in Protected Staking Rewards, so it has posted a bond that can compensate stakers for rewards lost to downtime. See What Happens to My Rewards If a Validator Goes Down?
Q: An incident is listed. Did delegators lose rewards?
A: Short downtime usually has little effect, and Protected Staking Rewards can compensate for prolonged downtime at participating validators. See the article above.
Q: Can I stake to one specific validator from here?
A: Marinade Native spreads your stake across its validator set rather than a single validator you choose. See Marinade Native Staking Overview
Q: My old validator link still works. Is that expected?
A: Yes. Validator pages moved to name-based URLs and older links still resolve to the same page.
