Last updated 2 years ago

Why Use Maintainers?

For an Operator, ownership and maintenance are two tasks with different risk factors.

To make things easier for you, we've introduced Maintainers:

A special address that has limited capabilities.

Keep the ownership of your Operator safe with a multisig setup, while allowing a script to automate your daily tasks.

Learn more about them here:

Setting Your Maintainer

You can set any address as your maintainer, but it is not safe to trust random addresses!

You will be held responsible for faulty validator proposals, and other mistakes that your maintainer makes.
