rapid rotation of validators, staking longevity rewards and open/flexible enrollment

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Introduction/Motivation/Abstract

In order to make it easy to validate short epics, of say 100 blocks with random assignment of validators could be implemented.

All validators available for validating would be eligible for rewards independent of whether they are selected for participating in the consensus.. Nodes not validating would operate read only and confirm finalized blocks determined by a small subset of the available validators.

Rewards would be higher for stake held longer to provide incentives for longer staking periods.
