Stake with Pumpkin's Pool and start earning the top 1% APY on Solana.
## Why Pumpkin's Pool?
### Top Returns 💰
So here's the thing: We actually care about our mission. A lot. The planet matters, and together we can make a difference.
To that end, we're giving **100%** of staked rewards directly to our delegators. There are **no fees**. We operate at **0% commission**.
We operate one of the highest yield validators on the Solana network.
There aren't many other validators (if any) where you not only receive top returns, but your rewards also actively contribute to making the world a better place.
### Clean Energy 🌞 🌲
We're committed to doing the right thing for the environment, which is why we participate in the [Community Solar program](https://pubdisplay.alsoenergy.com/kiosk/18014398509527082?dashkey=2a5669734965576e4a43513d3d&tag=4246267) that powers Pumpkin's Pool!
### Staking to a Greater Purpose ❤️
**5%** of all profits go directly to providing clean energy and improving the welfare of animals.
*But how can you have profits without charging commission?*
Validators earn income from a variety of places: commission, block rewards, and MEV.
### Fast and Reliable 🧨
We're powered by the latest and greatest enterprise-grade server technology available. Combined with years of DevOps experience and a robust monitoring and reporting configuration, the validator statistics on [StakeWiz](https://stakewiz.com/validator/DsiG71AvUHUEo9rMMHqM9NAWQ6ptguRAHyot6wGzLJjx) speak for themselves.
## Get Started
If you're not sure how to start staking, first you are going to need a wallet to hold your Solana. The most popular option is probably Phantom wallet, but you can actually use the Solana CLI tools if you're a power user.
- [SolFlare (Best in our opinion)](https://solflare.com/)
- [Phantom Wallet](https://phantom.app/blog/solana-staking-in-just-3-clicks)
- [Solana CLI (advanced)](https://docs.solana.com/cli/delegate-stake)
Once you have your wallet set up and you've purchased some Solana, you can use any of these trusted resources to stake your Solana and start earning!

## I Want to know more about Pumpkin 🐈
Pumpkin is a very vocal and incredibly friendly 3 year old domestic longhair cat.
Some of her hobbies include meeting new people and eating wet food 😃
When she's not napping, she helps power the pool simply by virtue of her incredible cuteness.

## Security Information 🔒
#### Physical Security
Pumpkin's Pool is hosted in a commercial building with extremely tight physical access controls, UPS backups, and 24/7 monitoring and alerting.
#### Key Security
The *Authorized Withdrawer* Keypair is stored offline in cold storage in an actual vault. There is absolutely no risk of the key being compromised as it is not physically connected to a computer.
#### Could I lose my tokens if I stake them?
Nope, this is not possible. You remain in full control of your tokens at all times, even if the validator goes offline. This is because the record of your delegated stake lives on the globally distributed blockchain, and not just on any one validator.
You will always be able to reclaim your tokens no matter what happens to any validator.
