ReZor Validator

This user guide provides step-by-step instructions to help you set up, secure, and manage your ReZor validator node.

1. Overview

The ReZor Validator User Guide is your complete resource to becoming an effective and secure validator in the ReZor blockchain network. Validators play a critical role in maintaining decentralization, ensuring transaction validity and proposing new blocks. This guide provides a structured, step-by-step overview for both beginners and experienced blockchain users.

Whether you're setting up your first node or managing existing operations, this guide simplifies complex concepts and gives you actionable instructions to start, secure, and optimize your validator setup.

2. Who are validators?

Validators are key players in the ReZor blockchain network. They help keep the network running smoothly, securely and fairly.

Responsibilities

  • Validate Transactions: Confirm that transactions are real and follow the rules.

  • Create Blocks: Group transactions into blocks and add them to the blockchain.

  • Secure the Network: Act honestly to protect against fraud; risk losing their stake if they misbehave.

  • Participate in Consensus: Work together with other validators to agree on the next block.

Staking Requirements

  • Minimum Stake: 200 RZR required to become a validator.

  • Incentives: Earn RZR tokens for performing duties.

  • Risk: Validators risk slashing (loss of stake) if they act dishonestly or incorrectly.

Key Points

  • Validators are responsible for their own stake and the stake of nominators.

  • Running a validator requires reliability and honesty.

  • Misbehavior can lead to financial and reputational loss.

2.1 Purpose

Validators ensure the integrity and security of the ReZor blockchain. They validate transactions, propose new blocks, and participate in consensus mechanisms.

2.2 Why It Matters

  • They safeguard the network.

  • Earn staking rewards.

  • Take on accountability: Misbehavior results in slashing (loss of stake).

2.3 Key Concept

Validators must stake a minimum of 200 RZR. Higher stakes increase trust and selection chances in the active validator set.

3. What are the minimum requirements to become a validator?

To ensure the integrity and performance of the ReZor blockchain, validators must meet certain technical and staking prerequisites. This section outlines everything you need to know to get started securely and efficiently.

3.1 Prerequisites

Setting up a validator node is mandatory before proceeding with validator registration. If you've already completed this, skip ahead to the next steps in this guide.

3.1.1 System Requirements

  • OS: Ubuntu 20.04+ (recommended)

  • CPU: 4+ cores

  • RAM: 16GB minimum

3.2 Steps to run a validator node

To set up and run your validator, please go through the 'Set up a Node' document.

3.3 After Successfully Running the Validator Node

You will be directed to your Validator Dashboard, where you can:

  • Track block proposals and staking metrics

  • Bond or unbond tokens

  • Manage your validator profile

  • View real-time network data and account activity

4. Accessing the Validator Application (Insecure Content Settings)

To become a validator on the ReZor platform, you must first access the validator application.

Since the login screen uses insecure content, you need to adjust your browser settings before proceeding.

Step 1: Open Browser Settings

  • Go to your browser’s settings menu.

  • In the settings search bar, type “Insecure Content”.

Step 2: Allow Insecure Content for the Validator

  • Locate the section “Allowed to show insecure content” (this is under Site Settings > Content in some browsers).

  • Add the validator application’s URL: https://validator.testnet.rezorscan.com/

Step 3: Refresh the Page

  • Once the URL has been added to the allowed list, refresh the validator application page.

  • You should now see the updated login screen and be able to proceed with your validator setup.

4.1 Login Section

Login involves connecting to a blockchain node via a valid Node URL and authenticating with a Talisman wallet. Once authenticated, you'll gain access to the validator dashboard and its associated tools.

By logging in, you can:

  • Connect your validator node to the network

  • Monitor real-time updates

  • Participate in consensus

  • Manage your account securely

Now, this section walks you step-by-step through the login process to help you securely access the ReZor Validator Dashboard.

Step 1: Enter the Node URL

To begin, enter the URL of your validator node. This is the entry point to communicate with the blockchain.

  • Go to the Node URL Input Field

  • Format for entering the Node Information: protocol://IP:port

  • Example: ws://127.0.0.1:9944

Note: The "wss" protocol uses WebSocket over a secure TLS/SSL connection, while the "ws" protocol uses an unencrypted connection.

Step 2: Click Submit

After entering the Node URL:

  • Click the Submit button.

  • The system checks the URL and attempts to establish a connection.

  • If successful, the interface will proceed to the wallet authentication step.

Step 3: Click on Login

  • Connect the Node: Make sure a node is successfully connected.

  • You’ll be redirected to the Validator page to Login

Step 4: Now connect your Talisman Wallet

  1. Connect your talisman wallet to login to dashboard.

Note: If your node is not connected, then you can’t connect your wallet

5. Validator Dashboard

The ReZor Validator Dashboard is the central interface for managing and monitoring all validator activities. It brings together key tools, real-time metrics, and operational controls into a user-friendly platform.

This dashboard is where you:

  • View validator performance and network contribution

  • Monitor staking statistics and commissions

  • Track proposed blocks, delegators, and total stake

  • Execute operations such as bonding more funds or unbonding tokens

  • Update validator profile and status

The goal of the dashboard is to simplify validator management while offering in-depth insights into blockchain activity. Everything from basic metrics to advanced performance data is available at a glance, making it easier to stay informed and take action quickly.

5.1 Navigation Menu

The Navigation Menu is your main control panel. It helps you easily move between different sections of the validator interface. Each menu option serves a dedicated purpose to streamline your validator workflow.

Menu Includes:

  • Dashboard – Takes you to the main Validator Dashboard view with current status, performance stats, and wallet activity.

  • Block – Opens the Block Explorer screen, where you can check:

    • Block numbers

    • Block hashes

    • Validators involved in each block

  • Validators – Opens the Validators List with tabs to view:

    • Active, Inactive, and Deactivated validators

    • Validator-specific details like voting power, total stake, and delegators

  • Pending Transactions

  • Manage Account – Lets you manage your validator role. You can:

    • Bond more funds

    • Unbond tokens

    • Stop being a validator

  • My Account – Shows your:

    • Wallet balance

    • Transaction history

  • Validator Address – Displays your node’s address for reference.

  • Balance – Shows your wallet’s current token balance.

  • Logout – Securely log out of the application.

5.2 Metrics Section

This section displays macroeconomic indicators and network-wide performance benchmarks for RZR tokens. These metrics are vital for understanding the financial context in which your validator is operating.

Displayed Metrics:

  • Market Cap: Reflects the total valuation of all RZR tokens. This helps assess token economy health and investor interest.

  • RZR Price: Real-time pricing of 1 RZR token. Influences staking behavior, as higher prices may increase the value of rewards.

  • APY (Annual Percentage Rate): Your expected yield from staking. Use this to optimize your staking strategy or benchmark against other validators.

  • Total Issuance Total RZR tokens issued by the system.

5.3 Validator Details

This section shows you how your validator is doing right now. It tells you if your node is active, how much has been staked with it, how much commission you’re charging, and if anything needs your attention. Think of it as your validator’s health report. There is also a refresh button to update the displayed data.

Let’s go through each part in detail:

1. Stake

This shows the total number of RZR tokens staked with your validator. It includes:

  • Your own tokens (called self-stake)

  • Tokens other users have staked with you (delegators)

  • Example: If you’ve staked 500 RZR and delegators have added 1,000 RZR, your total stake will show: Stake: 1,500 RZR

2. Commission

This is the fee you charge for running the validator. When your validator earns rewards, a small percentage goes to you, and the rest goes to your delegators.

Example: If you earn 100 RZR in rewards and your commission is 10%:

  • You keep 10 RZR

  • The remaining 90 RZR is shared among your delegators

3. Status

This tells you whether your validator is currently running and part of the network or not. There are three possible statuses:

  • Active – Everything is working. Your validator is running, participating in block creation, and earning rewards.

  • Inactive – Your validator isn’t active right now. This could be because:

    • You don’t have enough stake

    • Your validator has been down or offline

    • There was a penalty (called slashing) for bad behavior

  • Awaiting – You’ve registered your validator, but it’s not active yet. Usually, this means:

    • You need to stake more tokens

    • You’re waiting to be added to the network

5.4 Key Metrics

The Key Metrics section gives you a quick overview of how well your validator is doing and how much you’re contributing to the network.

This information is useful for:

  • Seeing how active your validator has been

  • Understanding how much support you’re getting from other users (delegators)

  • Checking your rewards and performance history

What’s Included:

  • Latest Block Proposed

    • Shows the most recent block your validator helped create.

    • It helps track the validator's active participation in block production and indicates their engagement and reliability in the consensus process.

    • Example: If your last proposed block was number 5,000,000, this is where it’ll show up.

  • Nominators

    • Number of nominators who are nominating this validator, including waiting validators

  • Total Nominators Stake Amount

    • Shows the total amount of tokens other users have staked with you.

    • Total amount staked by the nominators who are nominating this validator

  • Number of Blocks Proposed

    • Shows the total number of blocks your validator has proposed since it started.

    • This measures the validator’s overall contribution to network operations.

    • It highlights their reliability and uptime in proposing blocks.

  • Total Rewards:

    • Amount of total rewards earned by the validator

    • Shows the total rewards in RZR token form

5.5 Recent Wallet Activities

Validators perform several on-chain activities to maintain the network. These actions are recorded under Recent Wallet Activities and include:

Column

Description

Transaction Hash

A unique hexadecimal identifier for the transaction recorded on the blockchain. This allows you to verify and trace the transaction using a block explorer. Clickable in most UIs.

Type

Specifies the nature of the activity performed. Common types include:

-Restart Validator -Stop Validator -Unbond Funds -getRewards (for claiming staking rewards)

Amount

Indicates the number of RZR tokens involved in the transaction:

  • Often 0 RZR for control-type actions like restarting or stopping validators

  • May show token amounts (e.g., 1 RZR) for financial operations like Unbond Funds.

Status

Shows the outcome of the transaction:

  • SUCCESS – The transaction was validated and recorded on-chain.

  • FAILED – Indicates that the transaction did not complete, possibly due to gas errors or invalid parameters.

6. Setup As a Validator

Setting up as a validator on the ReZor network is like creating your own trusted “node” that helps run and secure the blockchain. Once you finish this process, your validator will be listed on the network, and others can delegate their tokens to you — which increases your earnings and voting power.

The setup process is split into two simple steps:

  • Step 1: Fill out your validator profile

  • Step 2: Stake your tokens and choose your reward settings

6.1 Step 1

This step is all about creating your validator’s identity. You’ll fill out a form with basic information that shows up publicly on the validator list.

Here’s what you’ll need to enter:

  • After clicking on the "Setup As A Validator" button, the user will see their wallet address visible in the top field. The rewards will be received in this wallet address.

  • The users can generate the rotate key by clicking on the "Generate Rotate Key " button and it will auto-generate.

  • Once the rotate key is generated, the user must click the "Next" button to proceed further.

6.2 Step 2

Now it's time to bond your tokens — this is how you show commitment to the network. The more you stake, the higher your chances to validate blocks and earn rewards.

Here’s what to do:

  1. Stake/Bond Amount

    1. Enter how many RZR tokens you want to stake (lock in for validation).

    2. Example: You might enter: 150 RZR

    3. Use the Max button if you want to stake everything in your wallet.

    4. Bonded tokens are locked while you're a validator. You can unbond later if needed.

Note: The minimum acceptable amount for a validator bond is 500 RZR Coin.

  1. Set Your Commission Rate

    1. This is where you choose how much of the staking rewards you’ll keep (your “cut”) vs. what your delegators will earn.

Tip: If you're just starting, using a low commission rate can help attract more delegators.

  1. Click "Bond and Validate"

    1. Once everything’s filled in:

      1. Click the Bond and Validate button.

      2. Your tokens will be staked.

      3. Your validator will be registered on the blockchain.

    2. If you meet the network's minimum requirements, your validator may immediately become Active. Otherwise, it will stay in Awaiting status until you reach the required stake amount.

6.3 Step 3: Authorizing

  • The User must verify the details like the "Stake amount" and the "Commission %".

  • You must approve request in talisman wallet to authorize the creation of the validator bond.

  • You must click on the "Sign and Submit" button to authorize the transaction.

  • A small fee will be deducted from the user's account balance to process the transaction.

  • Yours validator bond will be created after the authorization of the transaction.

  • After completing the process of becoming a validator, you will be redirected to the “dashboard” page. The status of the validator will be shown in the “Validators ” section.

7. Blocks

The Blocks page gives you a live look at what’s happening inside the ReZor blockchain. Every few seconds, a new block is created — and this page lets you watch that happen in real time.

You can use this page to:

  • See which validator created each block

  • Check the block height (its number in the chain)

  • View the hash (unique ID) of the block

  • Monitor when the block was produced

It’s especially useful for validators who want to:

  • Prove they’ve produced blocks

  • Track their activity

  • Compare themselves with other validators

It’s also helpful for delegators and developers who want to make sure the network is active, healthy, and decentralized.

7.1 Top Metrics

At the top of the Blocks page, you’ll see Top Metrics — these are big-picture stats about the ReZor network and its token (RZR). They update live, so you always have the latest information.

Here’s what each one means:

  1. Market Cap

    1. This is the total value of all RZR tokens currently in circulation.

    2. Example: If the total number of RZR tokens is 1 million, and each is worth $100: Market Cap = $100,000,000

Why it matters:

  • It shows how valuable the network is overall.

  • A growing market cap usually means more people are using and trusting the network.

  1. ReZor Price

    1. This shows the current price of one RZR token.

    2. Example: -The price changes in real time, depending on buying/selling activity. -Validators and delegators use this to decide when to stake, trade, or hold.

Why it matters:

  • Inflation helps pay staking rewards.

  • Too much inflation can lower the value of each token.

  • A balanced inflation rate keeps the economy growing at a steady pace.

  1. APY (Annual Percentage Yield)

    1. This is the estimated yearly return you get from staking your RZR tokens.

    2. Example: If the APR is 18.5%, and you stake 1,000 RZR, you could earn around 185 RZR in one year (before commission or inflation).

    3. APR depends on how many tokens are staked and how rewards are distributed.

    4. Use it to compare staking with different validators.

Higher APR = better potential earnings from staking.

  1. Total Issuance

    1. This is the total number of RZR tokens that issued— including tokens that are staked, held in wallets, or traded on exchanges.

7.2 Blocks Table

The Blocks Table shows a live feed of the most recent blocks produced on the ReZor blockchain. It’s like a real-time logbook of the network’s activity.

Each row in the table represents one block, and each column gives you a specific piece of information about it. This section is helpful for:

  • Validators checking if their blocks were successfully produced

  • Users confirming transactions

  • Developers exploring blockchain performance

  • Nominators monitoring validator activity

Let’s break down what each column means:

  1. Block

    1. This is the block number — it shows where the block sits in the chain. It’s like a serial number.

    2. Example: Block: 8014556, That means this is the 8,014,556th block in the blockchain.

    3. If you click on the block number, you’ll be taken to a detailed block view. That page shows:

      1. All the transactions in that block

      2. Gas usage (how much computation was used)

      3. Block rewards (how much was earned for validating it)

  2. Block Hash

    1. This is a long string of characters — a unique ID for the block.

    2. Example: 0x47865a94d6...4c8f345

    3. Every block has its own hash, which is like a fingerprint. It’s created from the block’s contents and can’t be changed without invalidating the block.

    4. Clicking the hash gives you technical details like:

      1. Parent hash (the block that came before)

      2. Consensus information

      3. More data on how it was verified

  3. Validator

    1. This shows who created the block — the validator that proposed and signed it.

    2. Example: Validator: rezor1kz...1456ad

    3. This is either the validator's address or their display name (if available). You can click it to see:

      1. Their validator profile

      2. How much stake they have

      3. How many blocks they’ve proposed

      4. Their commission rate

  4. Age

    1. This column shows how recently the block was created.

    2. Example: 1m ago means it was created 1 minute ago.

    3. This updates in real-time, so you can see how frequently blocks are being produced.

8. Block Summary (Explorer)

The Block Summary highlights key metrics like the latest block height, top validator, and average block time, while the Block Details section provides in-depth information on individual blocks, including height, timestamp, transaction count, and the validating node. Validator performance metrics and transaction analytics offer a comprehensive view of the network's health, decentralization, and growth, enabling users to understand the blockchain's overall performance and user participation.

8.1 Block Summary

The Block Summary section provides a real-time overview of the ReZor blockchain's current status. It allows users to monitor transaction volumes and block generation rates, giving a clear picture of network activity. Key metrics, such as block time, offer insights into the blockchain's efficiency and speed. Additionally, this section highlights user participation by analyzing transaction counts and validator activity, helping users understand the level of engagement and overall health of the network.

  • Latest Block Displays the height of the most recently added block (e.g., 16,124,2323). This metric reflects the growth and activity level of the blockchain, showing how frequently new blocks are being generated.

  • Top Validator (Last 24hr) Identifies the validator with the best performance over the past 24 hours. Validators play a crucial role in producing blocks, validating transactions, and ensuring the security of the network. This metric helps users track the contribution and reliability of top-performing validators.

  • Block Time (Last 20 Blocks) Shows the average time taken to generate a block based on the last 20 blocks. It provides insights into the network's speed and efficiency, helping users assess how quickly transactions are being processed and confirmed.

8.2 Block List

This section provides a list of recently mined blocks along with comprehensive information about each block:

  • Blocks A sequential identifier for each block in the chain (e.g., 4675635), showing the order of blocks and the blockchain’s growth.

  • Age The exact time the block was created (e.g., 2024-09-28 04:14 am). This helps track when transactions were processed and provides a timeline of blockchain activity.

  • Block Hash A unique cryptographic fingerprint for the block (e.g., 6EJCJ...KwScB). It ensures the block's immutability and integrity, making it tamper-proof and secure.

  • Transaction Count The total number of transactions included in the block. This gives insights into the activity level during the block's creation and reflects network usage trends.

  • Validator Displays the name or address of the validator responsible for producing the block (e.g., 0xh0043.8887). Validators play a key role in maintaining the network’s security by validating transactions and adding new blocks to the chain.

8.3 Filter (Newest)

This section allows users to sort blocks by newest or oldest and navigate through block history using pagination controls. It also provides insights into validator performance, including the number of blocks validated, top-performing validators in the last 24 hours, and details about validator accounts. These features help users monitor network stability, validator contributions, and overall decentralization effectively.

9. Validators

The ReZor Validator Overview Page is like a directory of all the validators in the network. It gives you an organized list of who’s validating, how they’re performing, and whether they’re worth nominating your tokens to.

This page is especially useful for validators reviewing their own performance and comparing it with others.

You can think of it as the “validator leaderboard” — showing everything from who’s active to how much they’ve earned and how many people trust them.

9.1 Validators Overview

The Validators Overview gives you a quick summary of how many validators are currently running, how well the network is doing, and how rewarding it is to stake RZR tokens. It's a good starting point for both validators and delegators to check the health of the network.

  1. Total Validators

    1. This shows how many validators are currently active on the ReZor network.

    2. Example: If it says 60 validators, that means there are 60 different nodes helping secure the blockchain right now.

Why this matters:

  • More validators = better decentralization and higher network security

  • It shows the level of participation in block creation and voting

  • Helps ensure no single validator has too much power

Note: If the number is dropping, it could mean validators are going offline or losing stake — a potential red flag.

  1. Staking APY (Annual Yield)

    1. This tells you how much return (in %) Nominators can expect each year for staking their tokens.

    2. Example: If APR is 18.5%, and you stake 100 RZR, you could earn 18.5 RZR in a year — before fees or taxes.

Why it’s useful:

  • Helps Nominators decide if staking is worth it

  • Changes based on how many tokens are staked, how many rewards are being distributed, and the network’s inflation settings

  1. Current Era Indicator

This UI component provides real-time information about the current era (or epoch) in the ReZor blockchain network. An era is a fixed duration of time in which validators are selected, produce blocks, and staking rewards are distributed.

What Each Element Means:

  • Circular Progress Bar (%)

    • The blue ring represents how much of the current era has elapsed.

    • Example, 50% of the era has passed, and 50% remains.

  • Current Era

    • This is the current era number in the blockchain’s timeline, which continuously increments with each new era.

    • It’s useful for tracking validator performance and block production over time.

  • Total Duration

    • The length of each era

    • During this time, validators propose blocks and finalize transactions.

  • Remaining Time

    • The remaining time in the current era before it transitions to the next one.

    • Here, 0 minutes, 1 second, and 6 tenths of a second remain.

Why It’s Useful

  1. Helps validators track their block production cycles and plan for rewards.

  2. Allows nominators and validators to monitor era transitions and adjust their strategies.

  3. Keeps all network participants informed about the progress of each era, fostering transparency and coordination.

9.2 Validator Tabs

The validator list is organized into three tabs to help you easily explore different groups based on their current status.

  1. Active:

    1. These are the validators currently working, helping to produce blocks and earn rewards.

    2. They meet the minimum stake requirement and haven’t been penalized or deactivated.

  2. Waiting: Validators in this tab are in the queue to become active but haven’t yet met the criteria to join the active set. This could be due to:

    1. Insufficient total stake,

    2. Competition with higher-staked validators.

    3. They are registered but not yet participating in block production.

  3. Inactive:

    1. These validators are still registered but not currently participating in block production. This could be because of:

      1. Not enough stake

      2. Missed too many blocks

      3. Temporary downtime

  4. Slashed: Slashed validators have been removed from the network — either permanently or temporarily — due to serious faults or voluntary exit. Common causes for slashing include:

    1. Severe downtime or unresponsiveness,

    2. Malicious behavior or violation of network rules.

Slashed validators lose a portion of their staked tokens and are no longer eligible for rewards.

9.3 Active Validators (Tab)

The Active Validators Tab serves as a centralized hub for understanding validator contributions and making informed staking decisions. All the Active validators will be seen here.

Information Shown in the Active Tab

Each validator in the Active tab is listed along with the following key metrics:

  • #NO – The serial rank of the validator in the list.

  • Name – Validator’s chosen display name (if provided; can be blank).

  • Validator Address – The wallet address linked to the validator node.

  • Total Stake – Combined amount of RZR staked to the validator (self + nominators).

  • Commission – The percentage of rewards the validator charges its nominators.

  • Self Stake – Amount of RZR the validator has staked personally (important for trustworthiness).

  • Nominators – Number of nominators delegating their stake to this validator.

  • Points – A performance score based on metrics like uptime and reliability.

  • Uptime – A counter reflecting how consistently the validator has remained online and responsive (e.g., number of successful blocks or heartbeat pings).

How to Use This Tab

  • Nominators can use this tab to select high-performing validators with:

    • High uptime

    • Low or zero commission

    • Strong community support (high nominator count)

  • Validators can monitor their own standing and compare performance with peers.

9.4 Waiting (Tab)

The Waiting tab displays validators that are registered but not yet active on the ReZor network. These validators have completed setup but are currently in a holding state, waiting to enter the active set.

What You’ll See in the Waiting Tab

Each validator in this tab is listed along with key data points (even if temporarily showing as empty):

  • #No – Serial number in the list

  • Name – Validator identity (if provided)

  • Validator Address – Public address of the validator node

  • Total Stake – Combined amount staked (self + nominators)

  • Commission – The fee charged on rewards

  • Self Stake – Tokens the validator has staked themselves

  • Nominators – Number of nominators backing the validator

  • Points – Performance score or ranking metric (if available)

  • Uptime – Availability and reliability of the validator over time

Pro Tip: You can use the Search Validator box (top right) to look up a specific validator by name or address, even while they’re waiting to enter the network.

9.5 Inactive Validators (Tab)

The Inactive Tab in the ReZor Validator interface lists all validators that are currently not participating in block validation.

These validators are still registered on the network, but for one reason or another, they are not part of the active set — meaning they are not helping to produce blocks or earn staking rewards.

Important: If a validator stays inactive for too long, it’s recommended to move your tokens to a more reliable validator to maximize your rewards and support network security.

9.6 Slashed (Tab)

The Slashed tab lists validators that have been penalized and removed from the ReZor network due to violating key rules or failing to maintain performance. These validators are no longer eligible to participate in validation or earn rewards.

What You’ll See in the Slashed Tab

If any validators are slashed, this tab will display the following details:

  • #No – List index number of the validator

  • Validator Address – Public key/address of the slashed validator

  • ERA – The era (block cycle) in which the slashing occurred

  • Self Stake – Amount of RZR the validator had personally staked at the time

  • Other – May show causes, context, or additional slashed stake (e.g., from nominators)

  • Total Stake – Combined stake that was at risk during slashing

  • Payout – Any unclaimed rewards prior to slashing (if applicable)

If there are no slashed validators, so the tab shows "No Data Available."

10. Manage Account

The Manage Account page is your personal dashboard for running your validator on the ReZor network. It’s where you can view your profile, track your performance, and take important actions like staking more, unbonding, or even stopping validation.

10.1 Manage Accounts has 2 sub-sections:

  1. Info

  2. Funds

10.2 Info Section:

In the Info section, users can view and manage key details about their validator account.

  • Name: Name of the validator

  • Wallet Address

    • Displays the validator’s public wallet address.

    • Users can easily copy this address by clicking the “copy” icon next to it.

  • Stake

    • Shows the total amount of RZR tokens staked.

    • This includes both the validator’s own stake and the combined stake of their supporting nominators.

    • This metric reflects the validator’s influence and trustworthiness within the network.

  • Commission

    • Displays the commission rate charged by the validator.

    • This is the percentage of rewards the validator retains from the rewards earned by their nominators.

  • Status

    • Indicates the validator’s current operational status (e.g., Active, Inactive, Deactivating).

    • This helps nominators and validators understand whether the validator is currently participating in block validation and earning rewards.

10.3 Funds:

The Funds section offers several options for managing your validator funds and status:

10.3.1 Wallet Section

The Wallet section under Manage Account helps users monitor and manage their RZR token balances, making it easy to track funds and manage validator operations.

10.3.2 Key Features

  1. Wallet Balance Overview

  • Total Balance

    • Shows the entire balance held in the account, including bonded and unbonded funds.

    • Example: 1800.14 RZR

  • Available Balance

    • Represents the spendable funds—the amount you can immediately transfer or use for other operations.

    • Example: 61.03 RZR

  • Locked Balance

    • Portion of the balance currently locked due to bonding, unbonding cooldown, or smart contracts.

  1. Transfer Button

  • The Transfer button allows users to send funds from their available balance to another wallet address.

When a user clicks the Transfer button from the Funds tab of the Manage Account section, they are redirected to the Withdraw page, where they can securely send RZR coins to another address.

10.3.3 Transfer Workflow

  1. Enter Recipient Address

  • The user enters the recipient’s wallet address.

  • A helpful note guides the user: “Enter the wallet address in which you want to send RZR coins.”

  1. Enter Withdrawal Amount

  • The user specifies the amount of RZR tokens to transfer.

  • Example: 00

  1. Review Balances

  • Displays:

    • Available Balance: Amount available to transfer (e.g., 61.03 RZR).

    • Estimated Fee: Estimated transaction fee

  1. Confirm Transaction

  • After filling in all required fields, the user clicks “Multisig Sign and Submit” to:

    • Authorize the transaction using approval request in wallet.

  1. Security

  • This page ensures that transfers require proper authentication before funds can be moved.

  • The multisig requirement adds an extra layer of security by requiring additional signatures if configured.

Additional Sections

Below the Wallet Balance, users can expand:

  • Bond Details — to view or adjust bonded funds.

  • Payout — to claim staking rewards.

11. Bond Details

This section provides tools for managing staking-related operations:

  • Bonded: Displays the total number of tokens actively bonded and contributing to network validation (e.g., 10,000,000 RZR).

  • Unbonded: Indicates the number of tokens unbonded and available for withdrawal after the unbonding period (e.g., 0 RZR).

  • Actions:

    • Bond More Funds: Allows the validator to increase their total bond by staking additional tokens, strengthening their role in the network.

    • Unbond Funds: Provides an option to release bonded tokens, which will be withdrawable after the required unbonding period.

    • Stop Validating: Ends the validator’s participation in network validation, transitioning them to an inactive state.

11.1 Bond More Funds

The Bond More Funds feature lets you add more RZR tokens to your validator stake. Doing this boosts your:

  • Voting power

  • Visibility on the validator list

  • Chances of earning more rewards

  • This is especially useful if:

    • You want to move from “Awaiting” to “Active”

    • You’ve recently received more RZR tokens

    • You want to increase your validator’s trust and influence

11.2 Additional Funds to Bond

The first input field allows users to manually enter the number of tokens they wish to bond for staking. For convenience, a Max Button is provided, which automatically fills in the maximum number of tokens available in the user’s connected wallet. This ensures users can quickly stake their entire available balance without manually entering the amount.

11.3 Authorize the Transaction

To authorize the transaction, you’ll need to approve the request in talisman wallet. This step ensures secure authentication and prevents unauthorized transactions.

11.4 Sign and Submit Button

Once all required information is entered, users can finalize the bonding process by clicking the Sign and Submit Button. This action triggers the transaction through the connected wallet, which securely authorizes and processes the transaction. Gas fees are automatically calculated and deducted during this step, ensuring a seamless experience.

11.5 Note

After the transaction is successfully processed, a notification informs users that changes to their account status, such as updates to the total bonded tokens, may take some time to reflect on the interface. This transparency helps set clear expectations for users, ensuring they understand the timeline for updates.

12. Unbond

Unbonding is the process of removing your staked RZR tokens from a validator. Once unbonded, these tokens will eventually become withdrawable, meaning you can move them or use them elsewhere.

Unbonding gives you the freedom to adjust your stake — whether you’re switching validators, exiting staking, or just want to take profits.

Note: After you request to unbond, your tokens won’t be available immediately. There is a short waiting period (called the unbonding period), which helps secure the network.

12.1 Funds Available to Unbond

This section shows how many tokens you currently have bonded (i.e., locked) with a validator and are now eligible to unbond.

Example: Available to Unbond: 10,000 RZR

This is the maximum amount you can choose to unstake at this moment.

12.2 Unbond Amount Input Field

Here’s where you type in how many tokens you want to unbond.

Example: If you only want to unbond half of your tokens, and you have 10,000 RZR available: Enter: 5000

You can also unbond a small portion if you just want to reduce your stake a little.

12.3 Unbond All Button

Click this if you want to unstake everything you currently have available.

This saves time — you don’t have to manually enter the number.

Use this if you're planning to stop validating or move all your stake to another validator.

12.4 Unbonding Period Notification

  • After you submit your request, your tokens go into a waiting period before they’re free.

  • Example: The screen might say:

Unbonding Period: 10 minutes

  • During this time:

    • Your tokens are locked (you can’t use or move them)

    • You are not earning staking rewards

    • The network processes your unbonding to protect against sudden stake withdrawals

This time delay helps keep the network secure and predictable.

12.5 Authorize the Transaction

To confirm the unbond action, you’ll need to approve the request in talisman wallet

12.6 Sign and Submit Button

  • Click Sign and Submit

  • Your wallet will ask for confirmation and apply a small gas fee

  • The unbonding process begins immediately

You’ll get a notification confirming that your request has been received.

After the unbonding period ends, your tokens will appear in your wallet as available to withdraw.

13. Re-Validate

In case you have stopped the validator, you can restart it by clicking on the "Re-Validate" button.

13.1 Wallet Address Field

This section shows your validator wallet address — the one linked to your validator account.

Example: 0x4768589...8B145

  • There’s a copy icon next to it so you can quickly copy the address.

  • You might need it to confirm transactions, log validator activity, or for support.

Tip: Always double-check that the address matches the one you used for staking.

13.2 Authenticate with Talisman wallet

To confirm that it’s really you stopping the validator, you’ll need to approve the request in talisman wallet

  • It acts as your secure password for blockchain actions

There’s also a Copy/Paste helper to make entering it easier and reduce errors.

13.3 Sign and Submit Button

Once your wallet is connected:

  • Click the Sign and Submit button

  • Your wallet will ask you to confirm the transaction

  • You’ll also pay a small gas fee to finalize the process

After submitting:

  • You’ll see a notification that your validator deactivation is being processed

  • It may take a few minutes for your validator status to update from "Active" to "Deactivated"

This delay ensures all network data is synced before removing your validator.

What Happens After?

  • You are no longer in the active validator set

  • Your validator won’t earn any more rewards

  • You can still withdraw unbonded tokens or rejoin later by repeating the setup steps

14. Payout section:

Once you've delegated your stake to one or more validators, your rewards accumulate as they successfully produce blocks. As a nominator, you are responsible for manually claiming your share of these rewards. The ReZor interface makes this process simple and secure.

14.1 Overview of Payout Table

The payout table includes the following columns:

Column

Description

Validator

Displays the validator’s unique address.

Remaining

Displays any leftover rewards pending claim.

Payout

A button to claim the rewards.

How to Claim Rewards

1. Regular Payout

  • Click the "Payout" button in the row corresponding to the validator.

  • The system will automatically select the latest era with unclaimed rewards.

  • Clicking the button triggers a process that distributes rewards earned in that era.

2. Custom ERA Payout

  • Use the "Custom ERA" button to manually specify an era to claim rewards for.

    • Example: If the validator has rewards in an earlier era that weren’t automatically claimed, the user can select that era.

    • Enter the desired era and click Custom ERA.

Security and Steps

  • After clicking Custom ERA, users will:

    • Enter the Era number to confirm the transaction.

    • Click Submit to authorize the payout.

After this, click on "Sign and Submit" to authorize the action.

Custom ERA: In the Payout section, the user also has an additional option called Custom Era. The user needs to enter an era within the valid range.

15. Era Table

The Era Table in the Funds section of Manage Account helps users track rewards earned per era.

Column

Description

ERA Index

Displays the specific era number (e.g., 30219) for which rewards might be available.

Rewards

Shows the total staking rewards earned for that era.

How It Works

  • When a user is eligible for rewards in a given era, this table will display the relevant era index and the reward amount.

  • If no rewards are available yet (as shown in the screenshots), it will display “No Data Available”.
