Juicy Stake was a validator staking service operating on several proof-of-stake networks, including Radix, through which holders could delegate tokens to its nodes rather than run their own.

Status

Re-verified 6 August 2026. The service changed domains rather than disappearing: juicystake.io returns HTTP 502, while juicystake.org is live and is the website recorded in the validator’s own on-ledger metadata. That site still presents the node as running – “19,726,201 XRD Staked”, a 6.77% current APY and 99.99% uptime – and still invites new delegation.

The ledger reads differently. The Juicy Stake validator, validator_rdx1s0tkjt8mureaw3kkfl3900law5tnrlg3wte9f4vlaruxe4nfjzdam7, is no longer registered: its registration flag read false at epoch 331087 (1 August 2026) and still reads false at epoch 332527 (6 August 2026, state version 546296481). The active validator set is drawn from registered validators only, ordered by stake, top 100 per epoch, and emissions are paid only to stakers delegated to a validator inside that set – so the XRD delegated here is earning nothing.

How much is still delegated has not moved. The ledger recorded 12,610,520.465017496855168922 XRD on 1 August and the identical figure on 6 August: over five days, no delegator withdrew a single token from a node that pays no rewards. The node’s fee remains 2%, and its stake-unit resource (resource_rdx1t5d8gv6fmwv40sreuypwrwh2mmknr4vf7fdtyrmfr7upjmschwczn0) and unstake-claim NFT are live, so that stake can still be withdrawn in the normal way. The figure the site advertises and the figure on the ledger differ by roughly 7.1 million XRD.

The documentation at docs.juicystake.org resolves but serves an empty GitBook shell, so the sources below point to archived snapshots.

The service as operated

Juicy Stake was founded by Knox Trades, described in the operator’s own documentation as a systems, networking and cloud architect. Its published offer on Radix was a conventional one: delegators kept 98% of staking rewards and the operator retained 2% as a node-maintenance fee. The staking guide, archived on 17 February 2025 and the last version of the documentation still readable, also advertised a monthly lottery paying additional rewards to delegators, and stated that the node followed the Radix validators’ code of conduct and disclosed its location.

Delegation itself was never operator-specific. Staking XRD is a wallet-level action – a holder selects a validator in the Radix Wallet and delegates to it, and unstaking returns the XRD after the network’s unbonding period – so nothing about the mechanics described on the Juicy Stake site was particular to Juicy Stake. What an operator competes on is fee, uptime, and whether it stays registered.

Beyond the fee split, the lottery and the founder’s stated background, the claims the site made about itself – the security of its infrastructure, the experience of its team, its reputation among users – were never independently sourced, and are not repeated here. What can be checked is on the ledger, and it is in the section above.

Telegram Handle No Longer the Project's

The Telegram handle @juicystake, cited for this project on this page until August 2026, no longer belongs to it. Read on 1 August 2026, it resolved to a channel created 29 June 2026 with one subscriber, no description, and a single post styled as a Collab.Land token gate – "Click below to verify your wallet and gain access" – whose button leads to @CollabLandlBot. That is not @collablandbot, which Collab.Land's documentation names as its only legitimate Telegram bot. The link has been removed from this page; eight other Radix project handles were found in the same state, and are listed at Recycled Telegram Handles.
