Stop Validator

The Stop Validator feature allows users to securely deactivate their validator role on the blockchain. By entering their wallet’s mnemonic phrase, validators can confirm and authorize the deactivation process, ceasing participation in block validation and network consensus. Before stopping their validator status, users are advised to complete pending actions such as unbonding tokens or withdrawing rewards, as rewards will no longer accumulate after deactivation. This feature ensures a smooth and secure exit for validators while maintaining the network’s integrity and stability.

FR 12.001: Wallet Address Field

This section displays the wallet address currently linked to the validator role (e.g., 0x4768589...8B145). It helps users identify which wallet is associated with their validator operations. A Copy Icon is provided next to the wallet address, allowing users to quickly copy it for use in external tools or for record-keeping.

FR 12.02: Sign and Submit Button

This button is the final step in the deactivation process. When clicked, it initiates the transaction to deactivate the validator role. The connected wallet prompts the user to confirm the action and pay the necessary gas fees. After submission, a notification is displayed, informing users that the account status update may take some time to reflect.
