TON to raise mainnet validator staking floor to 1 million TON

Odaily Planet Daily reports that TON has rolled out an update for mainnet validators as fresh capital flows into the validation network. The protocol said both the minimum and maximum effective staking thresholds required to participate have increased, and may rise further. Validators are advised to review whether their current allocations remain sufficient to stay active and, where possible, consolidate staking positions. For the current round, the minimum effective stake is 824,000 TON and the maximum is 2,425,000 TON. TON expects these thresholds to climb in the near term to 1,000,000 TON and 3,000,000 TON. For validators that cannot meet the staking requirements for both rounds at the same time, TON recommends using staking services or setting up a 1of2 round validation configuration to improve capital efficiency.
