Introducing gVaults: Staking vaults built for @Monad.
For the first time ever, liquid staking users on Monad can have their own validator.
gVaults offer an institutional on ramp to the liquid staking ecosystem.
Here’s how it works.
We’ve chosen to redirect part our validator commission to support a higher sMON staking APY on @Kintsu.
It’s a simple alignment choice: stronger incentives today, a healthier staking layer long-term.
Looking forward to Kintsu governance going live and validator selection becoming fully community-driven.
With @nillion moving to Ethereum, we are sunsetting our validator operations in less than 24 hours.
What you need to do:
1️⃣ Unstake: Remove your $NIL from our node
2️⃣ Bridge: Move your $NIL to Ethereum
We appreciate your cooperation during this transition! 🙏
