Discussion: reducing BLS keys

Why not let’s put it up for a vote? There’s currently 4.4B staked. If the question is what to cap it at, that’ll be tricky. The total staked could move up over time due to the annual 441M inflation. The EPOS range right now is between 6M to 3M ONEs, so the divisor to use is 6M per BLS key slot.

If it is enforced, validators with too many delegations will be forced to open up a new validator moniker and communicate to their delegators to shift it over to their new validator.

Your vote on max BLS keys to cap per validator

  • 8 - caps out @ 48M ONEs
  • 16 - caps out @ 96M ONEs
  • 24 - caps out @ 144M ONEs
  • 32 - caps out @ 192M ONEs
  • 40 - caps out @ 240M ONEs

“caps out” here means reward start degrading for everyone’s delegations in that validator if they reach the max ONEs estimated.

It’ll be interesting to shake up the delegations a bit and see where things settle
