Welcome to the
SOLyDAR
STAKING POOL
About the Pool
You might say that our pool is very small…
but in terms of your rewards, it doesn’t really matter how big the pool is.
Our current stake is at about 100 kADA, which means, that the probability to be chosen as block leader in a given epoch is at 0.09. This means, that we will do a block every 11 epochs, but then we get 1111% of the rewards.
So as long as our stake is around 100k ADA, our rewards are not steady but the average reward amount / epoch is not affected, if you view a sufficient number of epochs.
Pledge = 10.5 kADA; Pledge Leverage = 9.5
All in all our pool is state of the art from a technical perspective, is being maintained by a professional team and has a realistic perspective as a pool with mainly charity purposes.
We run also an Air Gapped offline machine for signing our transactions.

low impact on the Environment
There are many reasons, why we chose to support the Cardano-DLT-network.
A low impact on the environment is very important for us that is why:
- Our servers run with 100% green electricity and energy saving technologies
→ hostet by:
- Our computers run with 100% green electricity
- We chose a sustainable bank for our business (GLS Bank)
- We support social and ecological projects in El Salvador and Bavaria
Social and Ecological Projects
We aim to use at least 50% of the profits of the SOLyDAR CS UG for the benefit of ecological and social projects in El Salvador and Bavaria.
The more delegators support us, the bigger our projects can become.
El Salvador
El Salvador is a very small, but diverse country in Central America (Pacific) with about 6.8M inhabitants. In El Salvador there are volcanoes, lakes and beautiful beaches, some of them famous for surfing.
Among the people there are some who have a lot and many who have very little. This is one of the reasons why it is a country with a lot of crime, but the majority of Salvadorans are exceptionally friendly, helpful and cheerful.
For our first project in El Salvador, which we are already supporting, we have chosen Plan International as a long-term partner. At the moment we help a boy from El Salvador (28€/month) and additionally support girls projects (3€/month).
With the remaining money we want to support children who live in very poor conditions in the area around San Pedro Nonualco.
Every year on January 1st, our friends are organizing a big event for these children, where they get food, school supplies, toys and other things they are lacking.
The party is framed with music, games and other entertainment. We attended the party ourselves and it was heartbreaking to see the joy in the children’s faces.
You can significantly influence the extent of our support by delegating to our pool.
Bavaria
Bavaria is a federal state in the south of Germany and the place where we live and work.
The main aspects of the nature conservation activities supported are the rewetting of peatlands, the promotion of extensive use on species-rich areas and mediation in conflicts of interest between agriculture and nature conservation. Depending on the amount of the rewards, the following projects are possible:
- Donations to the Bund Naturschutz e.V. in the area of Rosenheim
- Buying up areas that are important for the protection of species
- Compensation of use restrictions for agriculture in case of use conflicts with species protection

New to cardano (ADA)???
The Cardano-Network is based on a blockchain technology of the 3rd generation and aims to be a social blockchain platform.
- It is using Proof of Stake in contrast to Bitcoin, which is using Proof of Work
- Proof of Stake is an energy saving technology; Cardano consumes only about one 150,000th of the energy used in the Bitcoin network
- Proof of Stake is a more advanced technology; e.g. regarding capacities, scalability, ability for SmartContracts, interoperability
- It is a scientific technology, as every step in the development is peer-reviewed by academics
- It is defined by its community. Its governance model shows that true democracy is possible.
- It defines social goals and concretely pursues them; e.g. the goal of providing access to banking services, identity documents or education to large parts of the world’s currently disadvantaged population
