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 17 August 2026. The service changed domains rather than disappearing: juicystake.io returns HTTP 502, while www.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 apex domain recorded in that on-ledger metadata, juicystake.org, now answers with a 301 to http://www.juicystake.org/ and so drops HTTPS on the way; the www host serves the same site over HTTPS and is what this page links.

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) read false again at epoch 332527 (6 August 2026), and still reads false at epoch 335,694 (17 August 2026, state version 550,831,708). 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.

Delegators have now started to leave. The stake vault held 12,610,520.465017496855168922 XRD on 1 August and the identical figure on 6 August – over those five days nobody withdrew a single token. At epoch 335,694 (17 August 2026, state version 550,831,708) it holds 12,087,329.820082095715034029 XRD: 523,190.644935401140134893 XRD has left the stake vault in the eleven days since. A further 661,871.150645647908576531 XRD sits in the validator’s pending withdraw vault, which is stake already unbonding on its way to unstake claims rather than stake lost; the earlier readings recorded only the stake vault, so how much of that queue predates them cannot be settled from a single read. The node’s fee remains 2%, and its stake-unit resource (resource_rdx1t5d8gv6fmwv40sreuypwrwh2mmknr4vf7fdtyrmfr7upjmschwczn0) and unstake-claim NFT are live, so the stake that remains can still be withdrawn in the normal way. The site has not changed the figure it advertises, so the gap between it and the ledger has widened from roughly 7.1 to roughly 7.6 million XRD.

The documentation at docs.juicystake.org has gone further than the empty GitBook shell recorded in August: read on 17 August 2026 it returns a 163-byte cPanel default page – a meta-refresh to /cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi, what an unconfigured hosting vhost serves – 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.
