stake()

Create staking request transaction.

This method calls /solana/{network}/staking/stake to create a new unsigned transaction which, if signed and broadcasted, will create a new staking request.

await client.solana.stake({
  network: 'mainnet-beta',
  feePayer: '9i5cTqci1W6DHdYfT7WbiNhP5DXvnPNTXvS9fTBFfuSw',
  fromPublicKey: '9i5cTqci1W6DHdYfT7WbiNhP5DXvnPNTXvS9fTBFfuSw',
  amount: 1002282880,
});

Parameters


network string, required Solana network: `mainnet-beta` — production network. `testnet` — testnet.
feePayer string, required Account address that will pay the fee for the transaction.
fromPublicKey string, required Account address from which the staking account will be created.
nonceAccount string Account address that keeps the value of the nonce.
computeUnitLimit number ≥ 1 Maximum computational effort limit for the transaction measured in compute units.
computeUnitPrice number ≥ 1 Price of a compute unit for the transaction in micro-lamports (1 microLamport = 10⁻⁶ lamports).
stakeAuthority string Account address that can perform staking operations with the staking account. If not specified, rights will be taken from the `fromPublicKey` parameter.
withdrawAuthority string Account address that can perform withdrawal operations with the staking account. If not specified, rights will be taken from the `fromPublicKey` parameter.
amount number ≥ 1, required Amount of tokens to stake in lamports (1 SOl = 10⁹ lamports). Min amount is `1002282880`.

Result

The method returns a JSON object that contains a base64-encoded unsigned transaction and some metadata about it.

You can decode the transaction using decodeTransaction() or pass it directly to signWithKeypairs().
