Compare Validators
Last updated
Place several validators side by side for a stake/delegate decision: each hotkey's take rate, estimated APY, nominator count, on-chain identity, and cross-subnet stake/emission/trust aggregates. hotkeys is a required comma-separated list of 1-16 distinct SS58 validator addresses. netuid is an optional subnet context — when set, each validator also carries its membership row in that subnet (or null with no permit there). Composed live (no static file); the validator equivalent of /api/v1/compare.
Query Parameters
^[1-9A-HJ-NP-Za-km-z]{47,48}(,[1-9A-HJ-NP-Za-km-z]{47,48}){0,15}$length <= 783Subnet id (netuid). 0 is the root subnet -- a stake-allocation construct rather than a running subnet. It IS present in the registry collections, but it is excluded from application-subnet counts, and stake on it is denominated in TAO rather than in a subnet alpha token, so its economics are not directly comparable to a running subnet's.
