    I explored $SANC app at app.sanctum.so and browsed the LST swap interface. The concept is solid — instead of each liquid staking token (like jitoSOL, mSOL, bSOL) needing its own separate liquidity pool, Sanctum's Infinity Pool unifies them all so you can swap between any LST instantly.

    What I noticed: when picking which LST to swap into, the interface shows the exchange rate but doesn't break down where the yield comes from — base staking APY vs MEV rewards vs validator commission. For popular ones like jitoSOL, experienced users already know. But for smaller validator LSTs, there's no way to tell if you're getting 7% from real staking or from a temporary validator subsidy without leaving the site entirely.

    Suggestion: add a small tooltip next to each LST showing "Base yield: X% | MEV: Y% | Commission: Z%." This would help users compare LSTs at a glance and could actually drive more stake toward transparent smaller validators.
