According to @dydxfoundation, the community approved reducing the maximum number of validators on the dYdX Chain from 50 to 42, confirming the proposal passed. Source: https://twitter.com/dydxfoundation/status/1980541288446587143; https://www.mintscan.io/dydx/proposals/297 This update lowers the Staking module parameter MaxValidators, meaning only the top 42 validators by voting power will be in the active set and participate in consensus. Source: https://docs.cosmos.network/v0.47/modules/staking/ For DYDX stakers, rewards are distributed to active validators and their delegators, so delegations to validators outside the top 42 will not earn staking rewards until reentering the active set.
