What the data says
LST
LST — "Liquid Staking Token" on Solana, mint LSTxxxnJzKDFSLr4dUkPcmCf5VyryEqzPLz5j4bpxFp — is marginfi's staked-SOL token: the lending protocol's LST — marginfi.com linked — on a canonical "LSTxxxnJz…" mint at $149.97 per unit. The October 6, 2026 snapshot reads $11.6 million across 22,619 holders — one of the widest files in the index.
A 62.7k-unit supply on a 22.7k file is mass-market LST distribution — marginfi's stake pool reached the protocol's real users. ~$3.8 thousand of daily volume is a modest book. Freeze revoked; mint unreported.
JSOL
JSOL comes from the generation of Solana stake pools that predates the branding wars. JPool launched its pool token back when liquid staking on Solana was a niche pursuit rather than a product category, and it has simply kept running: the mint at 7Q2afV64in6N6SeZsAAB81TJzwDoD6zpqmHkzi9Dcavn represents roughly $152.7 million of stake across 3,657 holders in HostDeFi's October 6, 2026 snapshot. In a field where longevity is the scarcest credential, several years of uneventful operation is JPool's quiet pitch.
The class mechanics hold: freeze authority revoked, so no holder can be locked; supply minted on stake and burned on unstake by the pool program — the design's engine, not a discretionary lever; value appreciating against SOL as validator rewards accrue across JPool's delegation set. One figure worth a glance rather than alarm: the deployer-associated share reads 0.038%, higher than the zero most peers show but still a couple of orders of magnitude below anything that could steer a market.
FAQ
Which is bigger, LST or JSOL?
By tracked market cap: LST (Solana) measures $11.59M and JSOL (Solana) measures $152.70M — dated snapshots, not a live feed.
Which is safer, LST or JSOL?
On the contract checks we publish: LST (Solana) grades A and JSOL (Solana) grades A. A grade is a structural check on the contract, not a promise about the asset.
How have LST and JSOL performed over the shared window?
Between 2026-09-08 and 2026-10-17T03:15:24, the measured snapshots show LST at +1.86% and JSOL at +2.04%.
The grade column is the one CMC's compare page cannot print — our grade is computed from the contract itself (mint/freeze authority, liquidity, holder concentration). Changes are measured over the shared window stated on the chart, 2026-09-08→2026-10-17T03:15:24; a token with fewer measured points measures a shorter span inside it.
