The Bond More Funds screen in the Qubetics Validator interface enables users to stake additional tokens, enhancing their validator’s voting power, performance, and rewards. Users can enter the desired staking amount, authenticate the transaction by clicking on the submit button, and it will open the Keplr wallet to sign the transaction. Once confirmed on the blockchain, the validator’s total stake is updated in real-time, boosting its role and influence in the network.
The first input field allows users to manually enter the number of tokens they wish to bond for staking. For convenience, a Max Button is provided, which automatically fills in the maximum number of tokens available in the user’s connected wallet.
Once all required information is entered, users can finalize the bonding process by clicking the Submit button. Gas fees are automatically calculated and deducted during this step, ensuring a seamless experience.
After the transaction is successfully processed, a notification informs users that changes to their account status, such as updates to the total bonded tokens, may take some time to reflect on the interface.
The Unbond Funds feature allows users to unstake tokens bonded to a validator, offering flexibility to adjust their staking participation. Users specify the token amount and authorize the transaction by clicking on the submit button, which will open the Keplr wallet to sign the transaction. After the network's unbonding period, the tokens become available for withdrawal. This secure and user-friendly feature ensures validators and delegators can efficiently manage their stakes while complying with network protocols.
This section shows the total number of staked tokens that can be unbonded by the user (e.g., 10,000,000 TICS).
Users can specify the exact number of tokens they want to unbond by entering the amount in the provided input field.
This feature allows users to automatically fill the input field with the maximum number of tokens eligible for unbonding, simplifying the process for those who wish to unbond all their staked funds.
Displays a mandatory waiting period during which the unbonded tokens remain locked before they become available for withdrawal. For example, the notification might state an unbonding period of 10 minutes.
This button finalizes the unbonding process. Upon clicking, the user’s connected wallet will prompt them to confirm the transaction and pay the required gas fees. Once confirmed, the unbonding process is initiated, and the user can track the progress until the tokens are fully unbonded and ready for withdrawal.
The Profile Details Page in the Qubetics Validator serves as a centralized hub for managing validator profiles and staking activities. It provides key metrics such as total stake, bonded funds, and commission rates, enabling validators to monitor their performance and contributions. The page includes interactive features like bonding more tokens, unbonding, or stopping validation to adapt to network or personal needs. Additionally, the Edit Validator button allows updates to profile information, ensuring transparency and compliance with network standards. With its user-friendly interface and essential functionalities, the Profile Details Page streamlines validator management and supports efficient network participation.
The wallet address linked to the validator is prominently displayed (e.g., 0x47685...8B145). This serves as the primary identifier for transactions and network participation.

Stop Validating: Ends the validator’s participation in network validation, transitioning them to an inactive state.
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.
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.
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.
