Eligibility criteria for receiving stake from Marinade

For the Stake Auction Marketplace:

  • Validator is not blacklisted (i.e., not running harmful mods or engaging in commission rugs).

  • Validator runs a node version that is in the specified semver bounds.

  • Validator's final inflation commission is ≤ 7% (bids and MEV commissions can be used to offset a higher public commission).

  • Validator's uptime was >80% in each of the last three epochs, calculated using the stake-weighted average of vote credits.

  • Validator has created and funded its PSR bond. The PSR bond must contain enough SOL for:

    • One epoch of downtime (1 SOL per 10k SOL)

    • One epoch of "Maximum Yield" for the epoch based on the amount of stake received (as set by the validator)

    • One epoch of bids (as set by the validator)

  • Bond Size Estimation:

    • This calculator can be used to estimate the required bond size for a given amount of stake.

For MNDE Votes:

All the constraints listed above apply, with the following slight differences:

  • "Max Bid" Exclusion:

    • The "max_bid" is not taken into account in the validator's effective commission.

  • Bid Charging:

    • Bids are not charged for the stake distributed through MNDE. However, a PSR bond protecting the downtime and the yield for that stake must still be in place.
