On the DAO Call of Sept. 17, 2023 it was suggested that DAO members should recommend/suggest the next validator the DAO should use to delegate the next 1000 SOL
@Arximedis recommended we do also support smaller validators
In the tweet https://twitter.com/grapeprotocol/status/1703743672620335566 we were able to gather some suggestions which we can further research.
I propose we create a short list of 10 validators to be put up for vote on Realms so we are ready to stake to a specific validator when we finish gathering the next 1000 SOL to be staked currently at (693 SOL) in our B7bKkCv9wt2ps1ZSC5w3u2V98bKtH8JaersqAcBWb1kn staking account.
The suggestions from twitter so far bellow:
Stake City
Lucky Stake
Sunrise Stake → Liquid staking? ( @Jahris need some insight here)
Solblaze → Liquid Staking
Step Finance
Solana Compass
Sentries
XandeumLabs
Solanahub
