YOUR AVAIL VALIDATOR
Atlas joined Avail at genesis and has supported the network as an independent operator. Because Nominated Proof of Stake validator status can change by era, this board checks Avail’s official validator data instead of publishing a fixed rank.
The Atlas Avail validator is waiting to enter the active set, so it isn’t earning or paying staking rewards right now. Rank, stake and nominator figures appear here as soon as Avail’s validator data lists Atlas in the active set. Network readings and AVAIL market data on this page stay live either way.
Nominate from your own wallet through Avail’s official staking dashboard. Atlas never takes custody of your AVAIL, and you can change or remove your nomination at any time.
NONCUSTODIAL
Nomination bonds tokens through your own wallet. Atlas never receives your recovery phrase or custody of your balance.

QUESTIONS PEOPLE ACTUALLY ASK
What is Avail and what does its data availability layer do?
Avail is a modular blockchain focused on data availability. Rollups and application chains can publish transaction data to Avail while execution happens elsewhere. Availability proofs help participants verify that the underlying data can be retrieved.
What is AVAIL used for?
Native AVAIL is used for transaction fees, governance, and Nominated Proof of Stake security on Avail mainnet. Staking AVAIL helps back the validators that produce blocks and make published data available.
How does Nominated Proof of Stake work on Avail?
Validators operate infrastructure and participate in consensus. Token holders can become nominators by bonding AVAIL and selecting validator candidates. The protocol assigns backing across elected validators and distributes rewards under its on chain rules.
How do I stake AVAIL with Atlas?
Open Avail’s official staking dashboard, connect a supported self custody wallet, confirm that Atlas Staking is currently available, choose Atlas among your nominations, bond an amount, and approve the transaction. Leave liquid AVAIL for fees.
How many Avail validators can I nominate?
Avail’s official staking guide currently allows a direct nominator to select up to 16 validator candidates. Selecting several candidates doesn’t guarantee that every selection will be elected or receive backing in each era.
What is the difference between direct nomination and a nomination pool?
Direct nominators choose validator candidates themselves and manage their bonded position. A nomination pool combines stake from multiple members and manages validator selections at the pool level, which may be more accessible for smaller balances.
How long does it take to unstake AVAIL?
Avail currently documents a 28 day unbonding period. Tokens being unbonded can’t be transferred and generally don’t earn staking rewards. Network governance can change parameters, so verify the current value before submitting an unstake request.
When does an AVAIL nomination start earning rewards?
Avail operates in eras. A new nomination may become active in a later era if it backs an elected validator, and rewards follow the network’s payout process. Timing and amounts vary, so don’t treat an estimated annual rate as guaranteed.
Can I stake bridged or ERC-20 AVAIL directly?
Native staking occurs on Avail mainnet. AVAIL held on Ethereum or another network may need to move through an official bridge before it can be bonded. Verify the source chain, destination, token contract, and current Avail guidance before transferring.
What happens if a nominated validator isn’t active?
A candidate that isn’t elected into the active set doesn’t perform active validator duties for that era. Review your nominations in the official dashboard and update them when needed, since only appropriately backed active validators participate in reward production.
What risks should I consider before staking AVAIL?
AVAIL can lose market value, reward rates can change, and bonded tokens are illiquid during unbonding. Validator performance or protocol violations can affect outcomes under network rules. Staking rewards are variable and never guaranteed.
