stake.link SDL

What SDL actually is on-chain

stake.link is an ERC-20 deployed on Ethereum, at contract address 0xa95c5ebb86e0de73b4fb8c47a45b792cfea28c23. That address, not the ticker SDL, is what uniquely identifies this asset: anyone can deploy a second token calling itself SDL, but the contract is unforgeable. Verify it against etherscan.io before sending funds or approving a spend.

Because it lives on Ethereum, SDL is held in any EVM-compatible wallet, transfers are paid for in ETH rather than in SDL itself, and secondary liquidity sits in Uniswap-style AMM pools. Two consequences follow for anyone setting alerts: you need ETH in the same wallet to move the token at all, and a quoted price taken from a pool is a pool price — it includes slippage that an order-book quote would not.

For SDL the project publishes a public source repository and an active account as @stakedotlink. That is a partial paper trail — enough to check claims against, not enough to audit. None of it is a quality judgement about the asset; it is simply what can be independently checked before the chart is worth looking at.

Where SDL sits in the market

At #1042, stake.link is in the upper small-cap band. Books at this depth are thin enough that one sizeable market order can move the printed price by several percent and retrace within minutes, which is precisely why a single static price target makes a poor trigger — you want a condition that survives one wick. Availability is concentrated in a handful of venues and volume-based delisting is a live risk rather than a theoretical one.

We are not currently receiving a live SDL order book from any of the exchanges connected to this site, so no real-time quote is shown above. That is itself information: it usually means the pair is unlisted on the venues we track, or trading has been halted. SDL is a Ethereum asset, so whatever turnover exists is most likely in Uniswap-style AMM pools rather than on a centralised book, and every fill there costs ETH in gas on top of the pool's own fee.

SDL against its all-time high

stake.link's record high is $1.56, set on 2025-09-03. That high sits in a range where whole-cent and whole-unit levels are genuinely traded, which makes them usable as alert thresholds if a quote returns. It was set about a year ago, so it belongs to the current cycle but not to current conditions. We are not quoting a drawdown from it because no tracked venue is giving us a live SDL price — a stale or single-pool number would make that percentage look precise when it is not.

SDL across its historical range

The recorded range runs 21.7x, from $0.0720 to $1.56 — wide by the standards of traditional assets, moderate for this one's class.

The record low of $0.0720 was printed on 2023-05-21 — 3 years ago. We have no live quote to measure the current distance from it.

SDL supply and valuation data

stake.link sits just outside the band where circulating and total supply are independently verified, so we hold a valuation figure for SDL but not an audited token count. What we do have is a fully diluted valuation of $25.0 million as of 2026-05-12. That is in the upper quartile of tracked assets by fully diluted value.

Because that valuation is a snapshot rather than a live figure, we deliberately do not back out a supply number from it — the price has moved since, and the division would produce a confident-looking token count that is simply wrong. Check the project's own explorer for the current supply before using any per-token valuation. The authoritative figure is the one etherscan.io reports for this contract.

What kind of asset SDL is

stake.link trades primarily as an ecosystem asset rather than as a base-layer network of its own, which means it carries a beta to its host chain. When the host chain's native asset rallies, tokens in its ecosystem typically amplify the move in both directions, and liquidity for them is concentrated on that chain's venues.

CoinGecko files SDL under 2 categories, including Ethereum Ecosystem, Liquid Staking. CoinGecko also records deployments on Ethereum (3,072 tracked tokens), so its on-chain liquidity and its user base move with that network.

How to set a stake.link alert that is worth receiving

stake.link is the ERC-20 at 0xa95c…8c23 on Ethereum — high dated 2025-09-03 — rank #1042. On this profile the condition that carries signal is a volume-surge condition on the 1-hour or 4-hour candle paired with a wide price threshold.
