Introducing CLI V2: Configurable Rewards
Share block rewards and override your public commissions with Pye's CLI V2.
Since PoS staking on Solana started, validators have run the same CLI tool. One vote account. One commission rate. One node. Every staker gets identical terms — and if you want to offer someone better rates for a six-month commitment, your options are to spin up a separate node, build off-chain accounting, and ask them to trust you to pay out correctly.
Most of those deals never get made. Not because the appetite isn't there. Because the infrastructure to support them doesn't exist.
The consequences are real: stakers shopping for better rates leave with no mechanism to retain them. Delegation volume is unpredictable because nothing locks anyone in. And the validators who could attract institutional capital can't — because institutions need documented, on-chain terms before committing at scale, and a vote account commission rate doesn't provide that.
Pye built a validator CLI to fix this.
Custom Commissions for Inflation, MEV & Block Rewards
Custom lockups are staking products validators create from the Pye Validator Dashboard. Each one carries its own commission rates across inflation rewards, MEV tips, and block rewards — with an optional SOL cap and a choice between public lockups (open to anyone) or private ones (restricted to whitelisted addresses).
Your vote account is never touched. Creating a lockup takes under a minute. When it's live, the dashboard generates a shareable link you can send directly to stakers.
You can run as many lockups simultaneously as you want — different terms, different audiences, different durations — all from one account.
