Validator Concepts

Learn about jail and unjail, bond/delegate and unbond, etc.

Delegation/Bonding

You may use the following commands for delegation:

vinced tx staking delegate <vincechainvaloper1p4...> <amount * 1e18>avince --from=<vincechain1p4...> --keyring-backend file

Unjailing a Validator

When a validator is "jailed" for being offline, you must submit an Unjail transaction from the operator account in order to be able to get block proposer rewards again (this may depend on the zone fee distribution).

vinced tx slashing unjail --from=<vincechain1p4...> --keyring-backend file --chain-id=vincechain_1000-3

Unbonding/Undelegation

You can use the following command to unbond or undelegate a validator:

vinced tx staking unbond <validator address> <amount to unbond> --from=<vincechain1p4...> --keyring-backend file
