Staking & Governance

Nefarious indexes the full staking and governance surface — Solana native validator delegation, DAO governance locks, vote-escrow systems, prediction-market governance, lockup-based reward programs and strategy vaults that compose on top of staking. Every position carries the data you need to surface lockup state and reward accrual: activation epoch, validator detail, lockup expiry, delegation target.

Native staking

Solana validator delegation — activation/deactivation state, validator details, estimated APY

Governance & vote-escrow

DAO governance locks, futarchy markets, vote-escrow systems

Protocol staking & vaults

Single-asset staking, lockup-based reward programs, strategy vaults

Position Types

Field	Type	Description
stake		Tokens staked, delegated, or locked in governance
deposit		Tokens deposited in strategy vaults or yield products that sit on top of staking

Enriched Fields

Native staking and DAO governance expose richer metadata than single-asset stake; field availability depends on the source.

Native Solana staking

Field	Type	Description
apy	number	Estimated staking yield, in percent
validatorVoteAccount	string	Validator vote account being delegated to
validatorCommission	number	Validator commission rate, in percent
activationState	string	activating, active, deactivating, or inactive
activationEpoch	number	Epoch the stake activated
deactivationEpoch	number	Epoch a deactivation was requested (if any)
stakeAccountAddress	string	Stake account address — useful for joining with on-chain data

Governance, vote-escrow, lockup staking

Field	Type	Description
apy	number	Current staking yield surfaced by the program, in percent
apr	number	Some programs report APR rather than APY — both forms are normalized to percent
lockupDuration	number	Lock period in seconds
depositTimestamp	string	ISO 8601 timestamp the stake was created — combine with lockupDuration for expiry
delegationStatus	string	For multi-subDAO systems: which subDAO the position is delegated to (or "undelegated")
strategyBreakdown	string	For strategy vaults: human-readable allocation of the underlying
exchangeRate	number	For receipt-token-based positions (eUSX, vault tokens): underlying per receipt token

Note:

Governance locks frequently report voting power as a function of amount × lockupDuration rather than as a raw token amount. The valueUsd returned by Nefarious is always the dollar value of the locked tokens themselves, not the derived voting weight.
