Rustiq Solana Validator

How to Stake

Check the latest validator stats at Validators App , Solana Beach or Solana Compass .

To ensure your stake remains decentralised, stake as much as possible on validators below the 33% cut line . That is where you'll find the Rustiq validator.

It is advisable to split the delegated stake between 5-10 different validators in different locations.

Security

Dedicated server in a top tier EU data center with 99.9% availability and a gold service contract.
The usual drill: validator runs as a non-root user systemd service, keys are generated and kept safely, the Secure Shell is secured.
Not using automated high availability guarantees that equivocation slashes do not happen.
Continuous server monitoring using a Prometheus-based stack including Grafana dashboards.
Alerts about critical events and an escalation policy in place for each alert.
Secondary server at the ready for manual failover in case of an incident on the primary.
Knowledge sharing with other Solana operators and continuous improvement.
