SSV Staking is live.

Use this guide to migrate your clusters.

SSV Staking is live with ETH-denominated rewards, a staking module for SSV holders, and cSSV (liquid/composable staked SSV position that accrues ETH).

Migration Guide & Updated SDK

The SSVNetwork and SSVNetworkViews contracts have been updated. The new ABIs are available here.

https://github.com/ssvlabs/ssv-network/tree/contract-abi/docs/mainnet/v2.0.0/abi

The most notable changes affect the register, bulkRegister, deposit, and reactivate methods, which are payable now. These methods no longer accept an amount parameter and need to use msg.value instead.

Due to the contract updates, the SDK has also been updated. Please review the latest documentation and adjust your automations accordingly.

Step-by-step walkthrough (cSSV UI)

Prerequisites (before you start)

Network: Mainnet

  1. Tokens:

    • SSV Tokens to stake

    • Enough ETH to pay for smart contract transactions

A. Connect + confirm network

  1. Open: https://stake.ssv.network/

  2. Connect your wallet

  3. Confirm you’re on Mainnet (if you get a wrong network prompt, please switch network)

Stake SSV → mint/receive cSSV
  1. Navigate to: Stake

  2. Enter SSV amount

  3. Approve SSV spend

  4. Confirm stake transaction

  5. Expected result:

    • Your cSSV holding increases

    • You receive cSSV (1:1 at SSV rate).

Track ETH accrual + claim rewards
  1. Navigate to: Claim section

  2. Observe:

    • Rewards accrue in ETH sourced from protocol fee flows.

  3. Click Claim All

  4. Expected result:

    • ETH rewards arrive in wallet

    • Your cSSV amount remains unchanged

Unstake
  1. Navigate to: Unstake

  2. Start unstake request → cooldown begins

  1. After cooldown ends → finalize withdrawal

  2. Expected result: receive underlying SSV back (1:1 relative to original stake) + any separately claimed ETH rewards remain yours.

cSSV Genesis Boost: Your First Step Into the SSV Staking Era

The SSV DAO is thrilled to kick off the cSSV Genesis Boost Campaign — a 30-day celebration of the release of the SSV Staking mainnet. This is the DAO’s way of saying thank you to the OGs who have been with us since day one, while rolling out the red carpet for the next wave of stakers ready to earn native ETH yield.

Road to cSSV: Comparing Infra rewards to DeFi rewards

The SSV Staking thesis is about pushing the SSV token toward a new kind of rewards primitive: infrastructure. DeFi taught retail to chase APY, infra asks a more important question: where do the rewards actually come from?

IMPORTANT NOTE: Staking crypto assets involves risks, including but not limited to: (a) slashing penalties that may result in partial or total loss of staked assets due to validator misbehavior or downtime; (b) smart contract risk, including the possibility of bugs or vulnerabilities in the protocol or infrastructure software; (c) illiquidity risk, as staked assets may be subject to unbonding periods during which they cannot be transferred or sold; (d) regulatory risk, as the legal and regulatory treatment of staking activities and related tokens varies by jurisdiction and is subject to change; and (e) protocol risk, including changes to the Ethereum network's consensus rules or reward structure. SSV Network does not guarantee any particular level of staking rewards. Rewards are determined by the Ethereum protocol and are subject to variability based on network conditions. Past reward rates are not indicative of future performance. cSSV tokens are receipt tokens representing a user's staked SSV position. They are not investment contracts, securities, or financial instruments. cSSV tokens do not entitle holders to returns beyond the protocol-defined rewards attributable to the underlying staked assets.
