getVoteAccounts

getVoteAccounts is a Solana JSON-RPC method that returns the validators voting on the chain that secures SOL, split into current (actively voting) and delinquent (stopped voting recently) lists. Each entry includes votePubkey, nodePubkey, activatedStake in lamports, commission, lastVote, epochCredits, rootSlot, and epochVoteAccount. It is the canonical source for stake distribution and validator health, the kind of data staking products like Marinade rely on. Pass an optional config with commitment, a votePubkey filter, or delinquency tuning, and send it as a JSON-RPC 2.0 POST to https://solana.therpc.io/YOUR_API_KEY.

Use cases

• List active validators and their activatedStake to power a staking UI or a stake-weighted leaderboard.
• Detect delinquent validators that have stopped voting by reading the delinquent list, so a staking app can steer users away from them.
• Pass a votePubkey to filter the response to a single validator and read just that one's state.

Errors & troubleshooting

Common pitfalls

• activatedStake is denominated in lamports — divide by 1e9 to display it as SOL, or you will overstate stake by a billion times.
• A validator can be delinquent yet still hold large stake, so do not assume the delinquent list is empty of weight — check it separately rather than only summing the current list.
