The eligibility criteria ensure that we're delegating to validators that meet some important properties for decentralization, Solana network health, operator quality, and MEV sharing. The yield score is an objective way to compare validators' relative yield and ensure we're returning a competitive APY to JitoSOL holders, which in turn attracts more stake to delegate to validators. + +In this version 0 of the score formula, there is no weighting of any factor above any other, because it is a product of all factors. But because all factors besides `yield_score` will only be `1.0` or `0.0`, yield is the main factor for determining validator ranking assuming all eligibility criteria is met. Even if one of the eligibility factors is not met, or the score is not high enough to be selected for the pool delegation, it is still advantageous to have a high `yield_score` as it is used for ranking which validators to unstake first. + +For a breakdown of the formulas used for each score, see the Appendix. + Take a look at the implementation in [score.rs](./src/score.rs#L14) ### Compute Delegations @@ -189,35 +195,162 @@ Administrators can: ## Parameters - -| Parameter | Value | Description | -| --------------------------------------------- | ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -| **Scoring Parameters** | | | -| `mev_commission_range` | 10 | Number of recent epochs used to evaluate MEV commissions and running Jito for scoring | -| `epoch_credits_range` | 30 | Number of recent epochs used to evaluate yield | -| `commission_range` | 30 | Number of recent epochs used to evaluate commissions for scoring | -| `mev_commission_bps_threshold` | 1000 | Maximum allowable MEV commission in mev_commission_range (stored in basis points) | -| `commission_threshold` | 5 | Maximum allowable validator commission in commission_range (stored in percent) | -| `historical_commission_threshold` | 50 | Maximum allowable validator commission in all history (stored in percent) | -| `scoring_delinquency_threshold_ratio` | 0.85 | Minimum ratio of slots voted on for each epoch for a validator to be eligible for stake.
