Who are Tonstakers’ validators?
Tonstakers lends TON from the pool to the partner validators, who use them in staking. By doing so, Tonstakers solves the main Liquid Staking problems:
- Centralization — Liquid Staking protocols consolidate too many tokens in one place, which puts the ecosystem at risk of network failure in case the biggest validators go offline. Distributing TON between several validators reduces the risks.
- Financials — in case of validator misbehavior, the network slashes the validator, i.e. takes a part of his stake. Using several validators simultaneously lowers this risk by reducing the total share of staked TON to be slashed.
- Accumulation — big validators accumulate the major share of tokens in their hands. Tonstakers thrives to help smaller validators, thus keeping the tokens distribution healthy.
