TON mainnet tightens validation rules: minimum staking threshold may rise to 1 million TON

Jinse Finance reported that TON has released an update for mainnet validators stating that due to new capital entering the validator network, both the minimum and maximum effective staking thresholds required for participation have increased. Validators should promptly check whether their current resource allocation is sufficient to continue participation, and consolidate their staking positions if conditions allow. The current minimum and maximum staking thresholds for this round of validation are 824,000 TON and 2,425,000 TON, respectively. It is expected that these thresholds will soon rise further to 1 million TON and 3 million TON. For validators unable to meet the dual-round staking requirements simultaneously, TON recommends using staking services or configuring a 1-of-2 round validation mode to maximize capital efficiency.
