I was wondering if anybody can help me. So over the past few days I have been slowly staking more and more Solana on marinade.finance. This has gone well. I can see my unstaked SOL wallet balance on screen, as well as how much SOL I have staked (native staking, auto delegation method). Note that I can see these stats pretty much instantly, with no wait period after staking. However today I staked some more SOL (146 SOL), in exactly the same manner as previous days, and it seems to have gone missing. The total SOL in my wallet has reduced by the appropriate amount, however the staked SOL has not incremented at all. So where is it?

It is now 10 hours later, and I have found the transaction on Solscan here. Clicking the SOL Balance Change tab shows my SOL Address ( ALqMYBBRJoafbVnBYTCBjVm6mzBEtEdBzx87ysLAyoBJ ) decreasing by 146 sol, and a new address ( GNdLMFaa2q86kX5erdXkKCKEgRLzTn1KLX7NGofKUkzy ) increasing by 146 SOL. I understand that this new address is a Staking Address created when I stake. Clicking this address provides further info, and I can see my SOL address ALqMYBBRJoafbVnBYTCBjVm6mzBEtEdBzx87ysLAyoBJ retains “signing authority” for this new address. I can also see the status of this address is “activating”. I am not sure if this is normal, and means at some point in the future (1 or 2 epochs?) it will be “activated”. My previous delegations didn’t seem to do this (I assume, since they seemed to stake instantly).

So, my issue is that I cannot see this 146 SOL delegated on marinade.finance? Which also means I cannot undelegate it. If anybody has any clarification on this for me I would be very grateful.
