Solid update. Nice to see most validators keeping uptime near perfect. The locked token stake flow is interesting, looks like people are betting long-term. Will be good to hear what Enigma and Lavender.Five share from their Post Mortem.

Enigma - an issue with pruning. Approximately every 1,000 blocks, the pruning process caused the syncing to stop for about ten blocks. Before identifying the root cause, they initially thought it might be a peer-related issue, so they tested several configurations by changing seeds and the addrbook. In the end, they managed to resolve the problem by migrating to a more powerful server with additional disk space to better handle pruning.

Lavander.Five - Disk Space issue.

Hello,

I am writing on behalf of SenseiNode, the biggest node provider of LatAm with +1.5B AuM and clients like Lido and OpenZeppelin. Is there a validators program where we can apply to enter the active set?
