Out of a total of 198 validators on the Terra Classic network, only 102 are currently active. This means that 96 validators are inactive, representing almost half of the validator set.
Validators play a vital role in securing the blockchain, validating transactions, and maintaining decentralization. When a large portion of validators remain inactive, it reduces the diversity of governance and can concentrate influence in fewer hands.
For delegators, this highlights the importance of choosing active validators when staking. Supporting smaller but reliable validators helps strengthen decentralization, spreads voting power more evenly, and ensures the long-term stability of the Terra Classic ecosystem.
A healthy validator set not only secures the network but also builds trust among its users. By understanding the balance between active and inactive validators, the community can make informed decisions to safeguard the future of Terra Classic.
