Choosing a validator

Choosing a validator requires due diligence.

In order to choose their validators, delegators have access to a range of information directly in the Kii block explorer, where all the validators in the active set will be shown.

• Validator's moniker: Name of the validator candidate.

• Validator's description: Description provided by the validator operator.

• Validator's website: Link to the validator's website.

• Initial commission rate: The commission rate on revenue charged to any delegator by the validator (see below for more detail).

• Commission max change rate: The maximum daily increase of the validator's commission. This parameter cannot be changed by the validator operator.

• Maximum commission: The maximum commission rate this validator candidate can charge. This parameter cannot be changed by the validator operator.

• Validator self-bond amount: A validator with a high amount of self-delegated KIIs has more skin-in-the-game than a validator with a low amount.
