Bring Your Own Node

Integrate your existing validator infrastructure with Yield.xyz

Overview

Yield.xyz’s modular platform empowers you to integrate your existing validator infrastructure into our staking ecosystem without migrating to our default node offerings. By abstracting protocol-specific logic, Yield.xyz enables horizontal scaling into new yield opportunities without extensive modifications to your application stack.

Use Cases

Existing validator operators

You already run validators on Ethereum, Solana, and Cosmos. Use BYON to integrate these into Yield.xyz while adding support for Polkadot, Tezos, and other networks via PVN.

Institutional staking providers

You have dedicated infrastructure for enterprise clients. Integrate with Yield.xyz to offer a unified API while maintaining full control over your nodes.

Exchanges with staking services

You operate validators for your exchange’s staking product. Use BYON to leverage Yield.xyz’s API and expand your offering to new assets.
