A Stake Egress Procedure outlines the specific steps and conditions under which a validator in a Proof-of-Stake system can withdraw their locked digital assets from the network. This process often includes an unbonding period, during which the staked assets remain locked but no longer contribute to validation. It ensures an orderly exit from the validation process.
Context
The design of stake egress procedures is critical for maintaining the security and stability of Proof-of-Stake blockchains. These procedures prevent sudden withdrawals that could destabilize the network or facilitate malicious actions. The duration of unbonding periods is a frequent subject of protocol adjustments, balancing network security needs with staker liquidity requirements.
Introducing the MINSLACK mechanism, this work formally resolves the PoS utility-security trade-off by dynamically constraining validator exits to maintain crypto-economic safety.
