Polkadot(@Polkadot):Polkadot OpenGov is voting on a major change to the network’s staking architecture. Referendum 1890 proposes that validators on Polkadot are required to lock a minimum of 10,000 DOT of their own funds as self-stake. This reform is a mandatory prerequisite for the next major staking upgrade: • Nominators becoming unslashable • Fast unbonding (~24-48h instead of ~28 days) The logic is simple: Validators absorb the slashing risk directly through significant self-bond exposure. Nominators can continue earning staking rewards without exposing their principal to slashing. If enacted, Polkadot staking would remove its two largest barriers to participation: Lower risk. Faster exits.
