Our #Solana report, check it out! $SOL.
1/10 Solana’s H1 2025 was a milestone in scale, speed, and ecosystem growth. With 6M daily active addresses, 600M+ weekly non-vote transactions, and a REV peak of $200M+ in early February, network activity reached all-time highs. Our just-released report covers it all —

19/ The 1.5% fee on priority fees only applies to the distributed portion. Validators keep full control over their commission structure.

18/ TipRouter’s fee structure: 3% on Jito tips and 1.5% on priority fees, split between LST vault operators (5%), JTO vault operators (5%), and Jito DAO (90%).

17/ With 4M SOL in annual priority fees and 50% distribution, stakers could see a 7% APY boost (from 7% to 7.7%), a significant improvement.

16/ TipRouter has processed over $250M since February, with over $300M in JitoSOL and JTO (re)staked to 15 node operators.

15/ The Steward Program scores JitoSOL validators based on priority fee commission. Validators with ≤55% commission (≤50% with 5% margin) score 1; others score 0.

14/ The Validator History Program tracks validator stats in a 512-epoch rolling buffer, now including fields for priority fees and block metadata.

13/ The Jito-Solana priority-fee-sharing module lets validators track and transfer earned priority fees to the Priority Fee Distribution Accounts.

12/ After quorum, the winning merkle root is set for both the Tip and Priority Fee Distribution Programs, ensuring transparent and decentralized distribution.

11/ The new Priority Fee Distribution Program works similarly. Operators create a merkle tree for both Jito tips and priority fees, submitting the root to the BallotBox.

10/ Once quorum is reached, the Tip Distribution Program sets the winning merkle root and sends Jito tips to validator and stake accounts.

9/ Node operators build a merkle tree of the distribution and submit its root to an onchain BallotBox, achieving a stake-weighted quorum (>66%).

8/ How does TipRouter work? Vaults receive and (re)stake deposits to node operators, who run an offchain process to snapshot validator and stake accounts each epoch.

7/ TipRouter is a node consensus network (NCN) with 15 Solana full node operators and (re)stakers, built on the Jito (Re)staking protocol.

6/ Validators who share priority fees may attract more stake, increasing their earnings through higher block production and tip volume. It’s a new competitive edge.

5/ Stakers now have a new economic lever: staking with validators who share priority fees can significantly boost their yield on staked SOL.

4/ TipRouter has already processed over $250M in Jito tips since February. Adding priority fees is a natural evolution, offering a battle-tested solution for validators to share fees.

3/ Priority fees make up 35-40% of Solana’s REV, but since SIMD-0096, validators capture 100% of these fees. Stakers currently miss out on this revenue stream.
