Marinade Waives Bond Penalties for Agave Slot-Skipping Bug

  • —Penalties waived for first-window slots in PSR and SAM calculations
  • —The issue stems from a slot-skipping bug in the Agave client
  • —The fix ships in an Agave 4.4 release candidate
Why it matters: It shields Solana validators from financial losses and unfair penalties tied to client-side failures.
