Stakewiz

Stakewiz is a validator analytics and utility website primarily focused on the Solana ecosystem. It aggregates a wide range of on-chain and off-chain data related to Solana validators — including performance, uptime, commission changes, stake concentration, and other health metrics — into a consolidated dashboard that helps holders of SOL choose where to delegate their tokens. This scoring system, known as the Wiz Score, combines over a dozen metrics into a unified score that reflects the overall quality, reliability, and decentralization impact of each validator, making it valuable for stakeholders who want transparent, data-driven insights into validator behavior.

Importantly, Stakewiz itself does not custody funds or provide a bridge or staking pool token — it’s a research and monitoring tool that supports native staking directly on the Solana network. Users can connect their wallets (e.g., Phantom) to the Stakewiz interface to select specific validators for delegation using Solana’s native staking mechanism, with the same non-custodial properties as staking through wallets or other interfaces.

Stakewiz’s data and Wiz Score methodology are also leveraged by other Solana ecosystem products and services. For example, the STKESOL liquid staking token launched by Sol Strategies uses Stakewiz’s performance scoring to inform its automated validator delegation strategy — distributing staked SOL across multiple nodes based on Stakewiz metrics to help reduce concentration risk and support decentralization.
