Weekly open source: chiefstaker — time-weighted Solana staking
Week of February 2–8. 49 commits total — the quietest real working week in a while.
chiefstaker, seeded
chiefstaker — a
new Solana program, created on the 8th. It lets anyone create a pool
to stake Token 2022 tokens and receive time-weighted SOL rewards.
Staking weight grows over time along an exponential curve —
weight = stake_amount × (1 − e^(−age / tau)) — so the longer a
position sits, the more of the reward it earns, with tau
configurable per pool. Pool creation is permissionless; creators
pick their own parameters.
Only 6 commits this week, but the program structure is there; the push comes next.
cterm
37 commits on cterm — the steady-state rate you'd expect from a three-week-old project that's been taking 70–120 commits per week. Rounding off edges more than building new subsystems.
