More About SWTCH
SWTCH is the backbone of the economic security model that powers the Switchboard protocol. Designed to secure and incentivize participation in the most decentralized oracle network, SWTCH boosts data reliability and integrity for the fastest feeds in crypto. Today, the Switchboard protocol already secures over $5B in value across 50+ dapps and projects. SWTCH is distributed to early Switchboard supporters and contributors as recognition of their role in helping the network grow. By staking SWTCH to mint svSWTCH, holders unlock rewards and governance power, and take on a direct role in securing and scaling the oracle network.
Whether you've participated in our points programs (Switchboard Orbs), staked with Fragmetric, or powered the Switchboard network as an oracle operator, you’re on the list.

Click “Stake Tokens” on this page once you’ve claimed your SWTCH. You can also go directly to https://app.fragmetric.xyz/ to restake your SWTCH into a Jito vault and maximize your yield.
As one of the first Jito Node Consensus Networks (NCNs) on Solana, Switchboard runs as a decentralized network of node operators secured by restaked collateral, including JitoSOL and SWTCH. This gives the SWTCH token real economic security utility, transforming it from a governance and product token into a token directly tied to the performance, reliability, and robustness of the Switchboard Oracle NCN.

Restaking protocols like Fragmetric integrate with NCNs to provide additional security and yield. Fragmetric is a vault built on the Jito staking protocol that lets SWTCH holders restake their tokens while earning yield. Stakers receive a liquid, tradeable Vault Receipt Token (svSWTCH) representing their share of the pool, and by aggregating SWTCH this way, Fragmetric enhances the security and performance of the Switchboard Oracle NCN.
SWTCH can be staked and delegated to oracles within the Switchboard oracle network. High-volume users will unlock higher rate limits and premium products like Switchboard Surge with svSWTCH.
