Creating a bond
A bond account can be created for any validator.
The bond account is strictly coupled with a vote account.
It can be created in two ways:
- permission-ed:
--validator-identity <keypair-wallet>
signature is needed. One may then configure additional authority that permits future changes at the bond account with argument--bond-authority
(the bond authority can be set at this point to anything). - permission-less: anybody may create the bond account. For any future configuration change of bond account, or for withdrawal funds, the validator identity signature is needed (the bond authority is set to identity of the validator at this point).
On the bond account:
- there can be only one bond for a vote account
- every bond is attached to a vote account
# permission-ed: bond account at mainnet
validator-bonds -um init-bond -k <fee-payer-keypair> \
--vote-account <vote-account-pubkey> --validator-identity <validator-identity-keypair> \
--bond-authority <authority-on-bond-account-pubkey> \
--rent-payer <rent-payer-account-keypair>
# permission-less: bond account at mainnet
validator-bonds -um init-bond -k <fee-payer-keypair> \
--vote-account <vote-account-pubkey> --rent-payer <rent-payer-account-keypair>
# to configure bond account properties
validator-bonds -um configure-bond --help
Bond creation details
The init-bond
command initiates the creation of an account on the blockchain containing configuration data specific to a particular bond.
This bond account is intricately linked with a corresponding vote account.
The creation of a bond account requires a validator's identity signature, specifically one associated with the vote account.
The parameters and their meanings are explained in detail below:
--k <fee-payer-keypair>:
This parameter designates the account used to cover transaction costs (e.g.,5000
lamports).--vote-account
: Specifies the vote account on which the bond will be established.--validator-identity
: Represents the required signature; the validator identity must match one within the designated vote account.--bond-authority
: Refers to any public key with ownership rights. It is recommended to use a ledger or multisig. This key does not necessarily need to correspond to an existing on-chain account (SOL preloading is unnecessary).--rent-payer
: This account covers the creation cost of the Solana bond account, and it is expected to be the same as the fee payer (default). The rent cost is0.00270048
SOL. Note that the--rent-payer
is unrelated to bond security or "funding," which is addressed through a separate instruction. The bond's security is established by providing a stake account. The lamports in the stake account then corresponds to the SOL amount added to the security of the bond account. There is no direct payment of SOLs to the bond; it is accomplished solely by allocating stake accounts.--cpmpe
: Cost per mille per epoch, in lamports. How many lamports the validator is willing to pay for every 1000 SOLs delegated. The property configures the bid theBond
owner wishes to pay for receiving delegated stake. The maximum delegated stake is defined bymax-stake-wanted
. The actual amount of delegated stake is influenced by constraints defined by the delegation strategy. Thecpmpe
value goes into the auction where compared with other bids the delegation strategy determines the actual amount of stake delegated to the vote account linked to theBond
account.--max-stake-wanted
: The maximum stake, in lamports(!), that theBond
owner desires to get delegated from the delegation strategy. The funded bond is charged only for the amount of stake that was actually delegated (if nothing is delegated, nothing is charged).
Show the bond account
validator-bonds -um show-bond <bond-or-vote-account-address>
To display all details about the Bond use --with-funding
and --verbose
parameters.
Gathering all the details require multiple calls to RPC node and does not work
properly with public RPC node (moniker -um
or --rpc-url mainnet-beta
).
Use some other RPC node url as described at https://solana.com/rpc.

Troubleshooting
Bond account configuration
The Bond
owner may configure following properties of the account:
--bond-authority
: The authority that, when signing the configuration transaction, allows changes to theBond
account configuration and withdrawal of funds. The validator identity keypair of the linkedvote account
or the owner of the SPL minted configuration token also has this ability.--cpmpe
: Cost per mille per epoch (in lamports). It's a bid used in the delegation strategy auction. The Bond owner agrees to pay this amount in lamports to get stake delegated to the vote account for one epoch.--max-stake-wanted
In lamports, the maximum amount of stake that the Bond owner desires to get delegated to their vote account.
Permission-ed Configure workflow
When creating the bond account in a permission-ed manner (as described in section Creating a Bond), the authority is defined upfront. This authority is then used
for changing Bond
account configuration.
(If one prefers not to sign the CLI transaction with the validator identity key
, they can utilize the mint-configure workflow.)
When authority
is configure then use
validator-bonds -um configure-bond <bond-or-vote-account-address> \
--authority <authority-or-validator-identity.keypair> \
--bond-authority <new-bond-authority-pubkey>
Permission-less Mint - Configure workflow
An alternative step, the permission-less mint workflow is available only for special purposes. For configuration, it is typically recommended to use the validator identity signature, as described in permission-ed configure workflow.
The owner of the validator identity
key has permission to configure the bond account. To verify the ownership of the validator identity key without requiring the CLI-generated transaction signature and sending it on-chain, one can use Bond's token minting. Use the command mint-bond
:
validator-bonds -um mint-bond <bond-or-vote-account-address>
After executing this command, the Bond program creates an SPL token that
is transferred to the wallet of the validator identity
.
The owner of the validator identity
keypair may transfer the token
to any other account using standard means.
Later, when they want to configure the bond account,
it's required to verify ownership of the Bond's SPL token.
The owner of the token signs the CLI generated transaction,
and the Bonds program burns the Bond's SPL token, allowing configuration of the authority.
validator-bonds -um configure-bond <bond-or-vote-account-address> \
--authority <spl-token-owner-keypair> \
--bond-authority <new-bond-authority-pubkey> \
--with-token
Funding Bond Account
! NEVER fund a bond with a SOL transfer. Bond funding happens by assigning a stake account to the Bond
.
! NEVER fund a bond by manually assigning the withdraw authority under the Bond PDA. Funding a Bond
should be done using the fund_bond
instruction.
The bond account exists to be funded, where the funds may be used to cover a protected event when a validator under-performs or experiences a serious issue. The funds are used when the validator bids in an auction. "Funding the bond" consists of two steps:
- Charging lamports to a stake account.
- Assigning ownership of the stake account to the Validator Bonds program using
the
fund-bond
CLI command.
The funded stake account:
- Must be delegated to the vote account belonging to the bond account.
- Must be activating or activated.
All lamports held in the stake accounts are considered part of the protected stake amount.
validator-bonds -um fund-bond <bond-or-vote-account-address> \
--stake-account <stake-account-address> \
--stake-authority <withdrawer-stake-account-authority-keypair>
The meanings of parameters are as follows:
<bond-or-vote-account-address>
: bond account that will be funded by the amount of lamports from the stake account.--stake-account
: address of the stake account that will be assigned under the bonds program.--stake-authority
: signature of the stake account authority (probably withdrawer) that permits to change the stake account authorities
How to add more funds under the bond?
It's as simple as creating a new stake account and funding it into the bond program. The amounts of SOLs delegated to the same validator are summed together. The validator bonds program may merge or split the accounts delegated to the same validator. It's not guaranteed to maintain the same stake accounts in the bond, but the amount of SOLs is always associated with the validator.
Validator Bonds and funding with stake accounts
The concept of Bonds revolves around managing stake accounts delegated to validators. This allows the validator to lock funds under the Validator Bonds Program while still earning inflation rewards. However, Validator Bonds Program is not designed to preserve the specific stake accounts (i.e, its public keys) that were initially funded. Instead, the funding is considered as the total sum of lamports across various stake accounts.
When a settlement event occurs, the funded stake account is split,
and a portion of the funds is used for the Settlement
.
After the settlement is closed, any non-claimed lamports remaining in the stake account are
returned to the bond's available resources, making them eligible for withdrawal.
As a result, there are now two stake accounts.
These stake accounts can later be merged if needed to create a larger,
compound amount for future settlement funding.
Withdrawing Bond Account
When someone chooses to stop participating in covering the bonds for
protected events,
they can withdraw the funds by transferring ownership of the stake accounts back to
the original owner (i.e., stake account authorities are transferred to --withdrawer
).
This process involves two steps:
- Initialize a withdrawal request, which means creating an on-chain account (a ticket) informing the protected event system about the intention to withdraw funds.
- Only after the lockup period elapses — currently after 3 epochs — can one claim the withdrawal request and regain ownership of the funds held in the stake account.
WARNING: The amount specified in the withdrawal request ticket account is no longer
counted as part of the funded bond amount.
When participating in bond auctions,
always verify the active stake recognized by the system using the show-bond
CLI command.
NOTE: The withdrawal request account remains on-chain until canceled. See details and consequences in the section [Canceling Withdraw Request](#cancelling-withdraw-request
To initialize the withdrawal request, one needs to define the maximum number of lamports that are requested to be withdrawn upon claiming. The amount defined on creating withdraw request can be bigger than amount funded to bond.
IMPORTANT: If you want to withdraw all SOLs from the funded bond,
use ALL as value for --amount
argument.
For claiming, one may define --withdrawer
as the public key where the claimed
stake accounts will be assigned (by withdrawer and staker authorities) to.
When not defined, the default wallet keypair address is used (~/.config/solana/id.json
)
as the new owner of the stake accounts.
# 1) Initialize withdraw request
validator-bonds -um init-withdraw-request <bond-or-vote-account-address> \
--authority <bond-authority-keypair> \
--amount <number-of-requested-lamports-to-be-withdrawn __OR__ "ALL">
# 2) Claim existing withdraw request
validator-bonds -um claim-withdraw-request <withdraw-request-or-bond-account-address> \
--authority <bond-authority-keypair> \
--withdrawer <user-pubkey>
The meanings of parameters are as follows:
<bond-or-vote-account-address>
: The bond account from which funds (i.e., where stake accounts are withdrawn) will be taken.--authority
: The bond account authority with permission to make changes to the bond account. This can be either the configured public key in the bond account (seeconfigure-bond
above) or the validator identity.--amount
: The max amount of lamports to be later withdrawn from the bonds program on claiming. The amount can only be specified when creating the withdrawal request. If a different amount needs to be withdrawn, the old request must be canceled, a new withdrawal request with the desired amount must be created and you must wait for a few epochs (by default, 3 epochs) before claiming is possible.--withdrawer
: The new owner of the withdrawn stake accounts (thestaker
andwithdrawer
authorities are assigned to--withdrawer
public key).
Technical details on creating withdraw request and claiming
When creating a withdrawal request, a specific number of lamports is designated for withdrawal after the delayed claiming period (3 epochs). This represents the maximum amount that can be withdrawn. However, during the delayed claiming period, staking rewards may accrue, resulting in a discrepancy between the requested withdrawal amount and the actual available lamports in the stake accounts. The system only allows withdrawal of the specified amount in the withdrawal request.
At time of withdrawal (claim-withdraw-request
), one must specify the stake account from which the amount
will be taken. This typically results in splitting the stake account,
where one portion of lamports is transferred to the withdrawer,
while the remaining portion is retained in the validator bonds contract.
However, a split stake account issue may arise if the requested withdrawal amount is not conducive to creating viable delegated stake accounts.
A viable stake account must include an amount to cover the rent deposit (~0.002282880
SOL
for a stake account). The rent is not part of the delegated amount but is a base requirement
for any account created on Solana.
Additionally, a viable delegated stake account must have some SOL beyond the rent deposit.
Currently, Solana requires a minimum of 1 lamport
for this purpose, but this
requirement may change in the future.
The contract mirrors this requirement by defining the Config
parameter
minimum_stake_lamports
,
which enforces a minimum amount for each stake account,
ensuring that this amount is locked within any stake account.
This is particularly important for stake accounts funded into a Settlement
,
as such stake account locks this amount until the Settlement
is closed and reset.
Failure to meet the minimum stake account size may result in the claim-withdraw-request
operation failing.
For more details on withdrawal issues, refer to the
FAQ section on failed withdrawal requests.
Cancelling Withdraw Request Account
The withdrawal request can be cancelled at any time.
validator-bonds -um cancel-withdraw-request <withdraw-request-or-bond-account-address> \
--authority <bond-authority-keypair>
The intention to withdraw funds from the bond account is signaled by creating an on-chain withdrawal request account. This account remains until it is manually canceled. Only one withdrawal request can exist per bond at a time.
If the bond owner wishes to change the withdrawal amount or have the amount considered as part of the funded bond again, they must cancel the existing request and create a new withdrawal request if needed.
NOTE: When the owner uses --amount ALL
during withdrawal, the system sets the amount
to the maximum possible value. Any future bond funding will also be considered as
withdrawable and thus not counted to bond funded amount.
The existence of a withdrawal request can be verified using
the show-bond
command.
Show Validator Bonds Program Configuration
The global configuration for the Validator Bonds Program is stored on-chain in
a config account,
which can be viewed using the show-config
command.
The address of the Marinade config account is vbMaRfmTCg92HWGzmd53APkMNpPnGVGZTUHwUJQkXAU
.
Configuration parameters:

Support for Ledger signing
Any signature can be generated using Ledger by specifying either the pubkey
(usb://ledger/9rPVSygg3brqghvdZ6wsL2i5YNQTGhXGdJzF65YxaCQd
) or the path (usb://ledger?key=0/0
)
as the parameter value.
For instance, if the bond authority is set up to be controlled by a key managed on Ledger, the command can be executed as follows:
# using solana-keygen to find pubkey on a particular derivation path
solana-keygen pubkey 'usb://ledger?key=0/3'
# using the ledger to sign as the authority to change the bond account configuration
validator-bonds -um configure-bond \
--authority 'usb://ledger?key=0/3' --bond-authority <new-authority-pubkey> \
<bond-account-address>
The support for ledger came from @marinade.finance/ledger-utils
TS implementation wrapper around @ledgerhq/hw-app-solana
. The implementation tries to be compatible with way how solana
CLI behaves.
NPM packages installation and execution
To verify the installation folders for NPM and to install the package globally,
check the configuration.
The default properties and potentially existing .npmrc
configuration file can
be checked with the command npm config list
.
To check where NPM packages are and will be installed:
# Get npm global installation folder
npm list -g
> /usr/lib
> +-- @marinade.finance/[email protected]
> ...
# In this case, the `bin` folder is located at /usr/bin
To verify the configuration of paths, use:
npm config get cache
npm config get prefix
If there are defined folders accessible only by the root
account,
configure the user workspace local configuration as follows:
npm config set cache ~/.cache/npm
npm config set prefix ~/.local/share/npm
With this configuration, NPM packages will be installed under the prefix
directory.
npm i -g @marinade.finance/validator-bonds-cli@latest
npm list -g
> ~/.local/share/npm/lib
> `-- @marinade.finance/[email protected]
To execute the installed packages from any location,
configure the PATH
to place the newly defined user workspace local installation before others.
# the nodejs binaries reside in '~/.local/share/npm/bin' for this particular case
NPM_LIB=`npm list -g | head -n 1`
export PATH=${NPM_LIB/%lib/bin}:$PATH
NPM Exec From Local Directory
One can use the npm exec
command to install the NPM package into a local folder and execute it from there.
cd /tmp
npm install @marinade.finance/validator-bonds-cli@latest
# `node_modules` exists in the folder and contains the CLI and its dependencies
ls node_modules
# Execute from the local directory
npm exec -- validator-bonds --version

command) finishes with an error:Error: 410 Gone: {"jsonrpc":"2.0","error":{"code": 410, "message":"The RPC call or parameters have been disabled."}
This is caused by the public RPC API endpoint https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com blocks the RPC method getProgramAccounts to prevent overload. When the command uses
-um
(i.e.,--url mainnet
) the public RPC API endpoint is used.The
show-*
commands sometimes require loading and filtering multiple accounts where thegetProgramAccounts
method is needed.Solution:
- To retrieve printed data about one particular bond account, this error should not be seen.
Use a simple call of
show-bond <vote-account>
and DO NOT use filter arguments likeshow-bond --vote-account <address>
. - Use a private RPC endpoint (see https://solana.com/rpc). Most providers offer free plans
that can be easily used:
RPC_URL=<private-rpc-http-endpoint>; show-bond -u$RPC_URL...
- To retrieve printed data about one particular bond account, this error should not be seen.

429 Too Many Requests
This error often occurs when the
show-bond
command is used with the public RPC API endpointhttps://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com
, which is the default endpoint for CLI commands. To display all the details, the CLI often needs to execute multiple RPC queries. Public RPC nodes impose rate limits, and exceeding these limits results in the429 Too Many Requests
error.Solution:

This is likely caused by an outdated version of Node.js on the machine.
Solution:
Upgrade Node.js to version 16 or later.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
This could be caused by the system containing two different versions of Node.js, one installed at the system level (e.g., via
apt
) and the other installed vianpm
.Solution:
Remove Node.js from the system and use the version from
npm
. Forapt
, use the following commands:sudo apt remove nodejs sudo apt autoremove node --version

Explanation
This is an issue with the core Typescript dependency solana-web3.js (https://github.com/solana-labs/solana-web3.js/issues/2781). The CLI is awaiting the official release of a new major version of the web3.js library that fixes this flaw.
Solution
No functionality issue. The CLI can be used as is with this warning displayed.
WithdrawRequestNotReady ... Withdraw request has not elapsed the epoch lockup period yet.
"Program log: AnchorError caused by account: withdraw_request. Error Code: WithdrawRequestNotReady. Error Number: 6021. Error Message: Withdraw request has not elapsed the epoch lockup period yet."
Explanation
This error occurs with the
claim-withdraw-request
CLI command and means that the withdrawal request is not yet ready. The bonds program allows funds to be withdrawn only after a specified time defined in theConfig
account. Wait for a fewepochs
for the request to become available for claiming. More information can be found in the Withdrawing Bond Account section.Error processing Instruction 0: custom program error: 0xbbd
Anchor error 3005 (0xbbd), AccountNotEnoughKeys. Not enough account keys given to the instruction
After updating the contract to the audited version, auditors requested using the CPI logging method,
which causes the old CLI to fail with error 3005 (0xbbd)
.
This error occurs due to insufficient account keys provided by old version of CLI to the instruction,
as the emit cpi
functionality requires specialized PDA at the call.
Solution:
Update version of CLI to most up-to-date.
npm i -g @marinade.finance/validator-bonds-cli@latest
Failed to claim withdraw request ...*
custom program error: 0x178f "Program log: AnchorError caused by account: stake_account. Error Code: StakeAccountNotBigEnoughToSplit. Error Number: 6031. Error Message: Stake account is not big enough to be split.", "Program log: Left: stake_account_lamports - amount_to_fulfill_withdraw < minimal_stake_size", "Program log: Right: 4030090170 - 4020836040 < 1002282880",
See at technical details on claiming process.
Solution:
Send
1.002282880
SOLs (usual SOL transfer to stake accoun public key address) to the stake account bonded to your bond account. This will ensure that the overflow amount available in the stake account is sufficient for splitting. Then, you can withdraw the requested SOLs (in this case amount of 4020836040 lamports, i.e., ~ 4 SOLs) from the bonds program. The rest of1.002282880
can be withdrawn by cancelling the fulfilled withdraw request and creating new withdraw request for the particular amount.Or, cancel the current withdraw request and create a new one that will specify large enough
--amount
to cover additional staking rewards gained by stake accounts during delayed period until claiming is permitted. For example in this the new withdraw request could define--amount
to be 5 SOLS instead of 4 SOLs, or use--amount ALL
to declare that everything from bond should be withdrawn regardless of rewards or whatever.Send
1.002282880
SOLs (by usual means of transfer SOL to stake account public key address) to the stake account bonded to your bond account. That way the sufficient overflow for splitting is ensured. Then, withdraw the requested SOLs (for this particular example it's approximately 4 SOLs, i.e., 4020836040 lamports) by use ofclaim-withdraw-request
CLI command. The remaining1.002282880
can be withdrawn by canceling the fulfilled withdrawal request and then creating a new one for that specific amount (needed to wait until new withdraw request elapses).Alternatively, cancel the current withdrawal request and create a new one with a larger
--amount
to cover additional staking rewards earned by stake accounts during the delayed period until claiming is permitted. For example, the new withdrawal request could specify--amount
as 5 SOLs instead of 4 SOLs for this particular example, or use term"ALL"
(--amount ALL
) to declare the desire to withdraw everything from the bond regardless of anything.Transaction simulation failed: Attempt to debit an account but found no record of a prior credit.
The executed command sends the transaction on-chain. For the transaction to be processed, a wallet must pay the transaction fee (approximately 5000 lamports). The CLI attempts to use the default wallet payer, which is typically the default Solana CLI keypair (usually located at
$HOME/.config/solana/id.json
; see CLI configuration withsolana config get
). If this wallet address has insufficient funds to cover the transaction fee, you will encounter this error.To verify which keypair is being used, add the
--verbose
switch to your command.Solution:
Use the
-k <keypair-path>
parameter to specify a keypair wallet that has sufficient lamports to pay the transaction fee.
