Allowlist Criteria

Criteria needed to obtain a seat on the Allowlist.

๐Ÿš€ 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.


๐Ÿ“œ 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.


โš ๏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.


โณ 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.
