Effortlessly Manage Cluster Stakes
The testnet and mainnet-beta clusters currently have a large population of validators that need to be staked by a central authority.
Staking Criteria
- All non-delinquent validators receive 50,000 SOL stake
- Additionally, non-deliquent validators that have produced a block in 75% of their slots in the previous epoch receive bonus stake of 500,000 SOL
A validator that is delinquent for more than 24 hours will have all stake removed. However stake-o-matic has no memory, so if the same validator resolves their delinquency then they will be re-staked again
Validator Whitelist
To be eligible for staking, a validator's identity pubkey must be added to a YAML whitelist file.
Stake Account Management
Stake-o-matic will split the individual validator stake accounts from a master stake account, and must be given the authorized staker keypair for the master stake account.
