Avalanche cuts validator minimum staking period to 48 hours
- —Validator minimum staking period cut from 2 weeks to 48 hours
- —Delegator minimum staking period stays at 2 weeks
- —AVAX up nearly 50% over four weeks, beating BTC and ETH
- —Helicon upgrade went live on mainnet on September 22
Why it matters: Shorter validator lockups lower the barrier to running a node and could improve network decentralization, though delegators do not yet share the benefit.
