Allowlist Criteria
Criteria needed to obtain a seat on the Allowlist.
๐ Promotion to the Allowlist
Once a validator is promoted from the Waitlist, they will now be part of the Allowlist.
Validators in the Allowlist are expected to maintain compliance with The Vault's governance and participation requirements.
๐ Expectations for Validators on the Allowlist
Participation in Governance: Validators must vote on all SIMD proposals on the Solana chain; failure to do so may result in removal from the Allowlist.
Uptime & Performance: Validators must continue meeting the base criteria in the Waitlist Criteria.
Community Contributions: Validators lacking ecosystem contributions may be moved back to the Waitlist until their contributions are deemed sufficient for reapproval.
Stake Distribution: The Vault aims to have 100 validators in the Allowlist.
โ ๏ธ Non-Compliance & Corrective Actions
Failure to Vote on Proposals: Risk of removal from the Allowlist.
Performance Issues: Validators not meeting base uptime criteria or becoming delinquent may be moved back to the Waitlist.
Lack of Contributions: Validators who fail to make meaningful contributions to the ecosystem may be moved back to the Waitlist.
Misconduct & Exploits:
Any validator caught attempting to bribe, use misleading statements in their application, or exploit loopholes to gain Allowlist access may be banned from the stakepool entirely.
This includes fraudulent applications, bribery, or deceptive practices.
Participating in malicious activities that harm the network or the users of the network, for example but not limited to, sandwich attacks.
โณ Capacity & Future Adjustments
New validators may only be added to the Allowlist when the total number of validators is below 100 in the stakepool.
If the total number of validators exceeds 100, new approvals may be paused until room is available.
The Vault reserves the right to pause new entrants to the Allowlist anytime.
