Get Started

This guide walks you through integrating your network with Symbiotic. Follow these steps to register your network, set up security, and start receiving stake allocations.

Network Contract

Quickstart: Network with Staking

Get familiar with Protocol: deploy a minimal network, middleware and vault-operator-staker setup

Network Contract

Deploy production-ready Network contract

Submit Metadata

Submit a PR with your network's metadata to make it visible on the Symbiotic UI.

Set Up Pre-deposit Vault (Optional)

If you need a self-curated vault, deploy and configure it.

Deploy Pre-deposit Vault

Configure and deploy a self-curated vault for your network.

Submit Vault's Metadata

Submit your vault's metadata after deployment.

Integrate Rewards

Rewards are essential for healthy protocol economics. Learn how to integrate Symbiotic rewards.

Integrate Symbiotic rewards to distribute rewards to stakers.

Integrate Slashing

Slashing protects your protocol by penalizing misbehavior. Learn how slashing works in Symbiotic.

Implement slashing to secure your network and penalize misbehavior.

Implement On-Chain Components

Build your on-chain integration using Symbiotic's Relay framework.

Use Relay Contracts

Build stake-secured applications using Symbiotic Relay. Learn how to construct Relay-compatible smart contracts.

Set Your Middleware

Configure your middleware to perform slashings and rewards distributions using the `Network.sol` contract.

Implement Off-Chain Components

Build your off-chain application using Relay Sidecar.

Use Relay Sidecar

Build your Relay App using the Sidecar architecture.
