LST Staking

Overview

Starkzap supports Endur liquid staking (LST) through wallet.lstStaking(asset). LST staking is different from native delegation pools:

You stake into an asset vault (for example STRK, WBTC) instead of a validator pool.
Yield is reflected in LST share value over time.
There is no separate claim transaction for rewards.
Exits redeem shares; there is no native two-step cooldown flow.

Looking for native delegation pools with enterPool, addToPool, and reward claims? See Staking & Delegation.

Quick Start

import { StarkZap, StarkSigner } from "starkzap";

const sdk = new StarkZap({ network: "mainnet" });
const wallet = await sdk.connectWallet({
  account: { signer: new StarkSigner(privateKey) },
});

const lst = wallet.lstStaking("STRK");

Supported Assets

Supported assets come from chain-aware presets.

Mainnet: STRK, WBTC, tBTC, LBTC, solvBTC
Sepolia: STRK, TBTC1, TBTC2

Use wallet.lstStaking(asset) with one of the supported asset symbols on the connected chain.

Core Actions

Enter LST Position

enter, stake, and add all perform the same LST deposit operation.

import { Amount } from "starkzap";

const tx = await lst.enter(wallet, Amount.parse("100", 18));
await tx.wait();

Enter with Referral

const tx = await lst.enterWithReferral(
  wallet,
  Amount.parse("100", 18),
  "ABC123"
);
await tx.wait();

Enter to Validator

const tx = await lst.enterToValidator(
  wallet,
  Amount.parse("100", 18),
  "0x0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef"
);
await tx.wait();

Exit LST Position

Redeem a specific amount with exitIntent:

const tx = await lst.exitIntent(wallet, Amount.parse("25", 18));
await tx.wait();

Redeem full share balance with exit:

const tx = await lst.exit(wallet);
await tx.wait();

Read Operations

Position

const position = await lst.getPosition(wallet);
if (position) {
  console.log(`Shares: ${position.staked.toFormatted()}`);
  console.log(`Total: ${position.total.toFormatted()}`);
}

APY and TVL

const apy = await lst.getAPY();
const tvl = await lst.getTVL();

console.log(apy);
console.log(tvl);

Commission and Rewards

const commission = await lst.getCommission(); // 0
console.log(commission);

claimRewards is not applicable for LST staking because yield is embedded in share price.

Configuration

You can pass fetch options when creating the LST client:

const lst = wallet.lstStaking("STRK", {
  timeoutMs: 15000,
});

Use this when you need custom HTTP timeout behavior for APY/TVL reads.

Best Practices

Always use the correct Amount decimals for the selected asset.
Treat LST and native delegation as separate UX flows in your app.
Show users that yield is reflected in share value rather than claimed rewards.
Validate supported assets per connected chain before rendering actions.
