Slash Protection Policy
GATA HUB validators are slash-protected. Learn more about GATA HUB's slash protection policy.
Types of Slashing
There are two types of slashings validator nodes might face:
Downtime (when the validator is unable to sign most of the blocks in the particular window)
Double signing (double signing occurs when a validating entity / private key submits two signed messages for the same block)
Coverage of Slashing
100% downtime slashing coverage in a maximum of 14-28 days
10% double signing coverage in a maximum of 14-28 days (we hope to increase this number in the future)
Because every network has different slashing parameters, we cannot give you estimates, but let's take Juno Network as an example: if you delegate 100 $JUNO to GATA HUB and the validator gets downtime slashed you would be slashed 0.01 JUNO and 5 $JUNO in case of a double sign slashing.
Slashing Refund-Time
14-28 days depending on the network from where we are unbounding to cover the loss.
