π¨π«π€ is coming to ππ‘π’π₯π’π³ ππ‘ππ’π§.
π Letβs break it down.
π Introduction:
The Snake8 upgrade changes how blocks are produced. Introducing a randomized, stake-weighted system that rewards performance while keeping decentralization alive.
π― Whatβs changing?
Before: Every validator produced roughly the same number of blocks.
After: Block production will depend on how much $CHZ is staked on a validator. Giving delegators more influence and validators more reason to compete.
π Why Snake8? ππ‘π π π¨ππ₯ π’π¬ π πππ’π« πππ₯ππ§ππ.
Big validators earn more chances to produce blocks.
Small validators stay protected through a minimum participation rule that guarantees theyβll still get their share of the action.
π How it works:
1οΈβ£ Each validatorβs selection chance = stake / total stake
2οΈβ£ Apply a minimum frequency (1 / 2N) so smaller nodes donβt get ignored
3οΈβ£ Rebalance all shares until total = 100%
Itβs math that keeps fairness alive. π§
π·ββοΈ For validators:
β
Upgrade your node before the Snake8 activation.
β
Non-upgraded nodes will stop producing blocks (and rewards)
βοΈ In four sentences, Snake8:
πͺ Strengthen competition among validators
π Reward high performance
π« Keep small validators alive
π Improve network security and fairness
This is a foundation for long-term validator economics on Chiliz Chain. π§±
