The All Validators Screen provides a comprehensive overview of all validators in the network, regardless of their status. It allows users to view detailed information such as validator names, addresses, activity status (active, inactive, or deactivated), total stake, self-stake, commission rates, and the number of delegators.
To begin, use the Search Bar at the top of the dashboard to find specific validators. You can search by their name, address, or block hash.
To narrow down the list, you can apply filters based on the validators' statuses. These include:
All Validators: Displays every validator in the network, regardless of their status.
Active Validators: Shows validators that are currently participating and earning rewards.
Inactive Validators: Lists validators that are temporarily not validating blocks.
Deactivated Validators: Includes validators that are no longer a part of the network.
Once you have a refined list, the Validators Table provides detailed metrics to evaluate each validator. These include:
Name: The display name of the validator for easy identification.
Validator Address: The unique address associated with each validator.
Status: Indicates whether the validator is active (participating in validation and earning rewards) or inactive (temporarily not participating).
Total Stake: The total amount of tokens staked with the validator, including contributions from both the validator and delegators.
Self Stake: The number of tokens staked by the validator themselves, demonstrating their commitment to maintaining network performance.
Commission: The percentage of rewards the validator retains as a fee before distributing rewards to delegators. Lower commission rates mean higher rewards for delegators.
Delegators: The number of delegators who have staked tokens with the validator.
After analyzing the metrics, use the information to select validators for delegation or redelegation. If this is your first time delegating, focus on active validators with competitive performance metrics. Validators with a high self-stake, low commission rates, and a history of reliability are generally good choices.
If you are already delegating but want to switch to a different validator, use the redelegation option. Redelegation allows you to transfer your staked tokens from one validator to another without going through an unbonding period.
