Why Nominator Stability Matters

Direct Impact on Your Position: Unstable nominators are more likely to switch validators, which can cause sudden drops in your backing and potentially push you out of the active set.

Health Score: Contributes 10 points to your overall health score under "Nominator Quality" dimension.

Current Risk Level

High Risk: Your nominator base is unstable with frequent turnover. Only 15.0% of nominators have been with you for 90+ days. This puts you at risk of sudden stake losses that could drop you from the active set. Immediate action needed to improve retention.

How to Improve Nominator Stability

Build trust through consistency: Maintain high uptime, consistent era points, and stable commission rates
Engage with your community: Active presence on social media, Discord, or Telegram shows nominators you're committed
Demonstrate transparency: Share your infrastructure details, location, and operational practices
Optimize performance metrics: Higher era points and better grades attract quality, long-term nominators
Competitive but stable commission: Avoid frequent commission changes that can scare away nominators
Focus on retention: You have more new nominators than stable ones. Prioritize keeping your current nominators happy

Impact Assessment:

Close to Edge - Only 48 slots from dropping out - very risky!

Recent Nominator Behavior

Stake from Recent Switchers 0.6%

What This Means:

Stable Base - Very few nominators have recently switched to you, indicating a stable, committed nominator base

How to Reduce Risk

Diversify your nominator base: Attract more nominators to reduce dependency on your largest backer (currently 49.4%)
Monitor slot position: Keep track of your active set buffer - aim for 200+ slot cushion for safety
Improve performance metrics: Higher era points and better uptime attract stable, long-term nominators
Set competitive commission: Balance rewards to attract nominators without sacrificing your validator income
URGENT: Your buffer is critically low. Focus on attracting new nominators immediately
