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.

According to @EricBalchunas, Canary filed Amendment #6 for its spot Solana (SOL) ETF with a 0.50% expense ratio and no cut of SOL staking rewards, according to @EricBalchunas. According to @EricBalchunas, Bitwise’s proposal carries a 0.20% expense ratio but takes 6% of staking rewards, which he estimates equates to roughly 45–50 basis points in additional effective fees, according to @EricBalchunas. According to @EricBalchunas, staking revenue sharing sits outside the stated expense ratio and will make headline fee comparisons misleading, according to @EricBalchunas. According to @EricBalchunas, the real cost will show up in each fund’s tracking difference versus SOL, which he describes as the true fee metric, according to @EricBalchunas. According to @EricBalchunas, this dynamic is similar to securities lending in broad and small-cap ETFs where some issuers return revenue to NAV while others keep a portion, according to @EricBalchunas. According to @EricBalchunas, traders comparing SOL exposure should prioritize realized tracking difference versus SOL over stated expense ratios when assessing net holding costs and fund selection, according to @EricBalchunas.
