Hetzner blocks over 1,000 Solana validators

Cloud service provider Hetzner has shut down over 1,000 Solana validators, causing their staking operations to freeze. This was more than 20% of all Solana staking operations at that time.

According to data service RockawayX, Solana’s network stall rate was 22%, the highest since May. At the moment, about 20% of validators and delegators do not receive rewards.

Affected users will need to find suitable alternatives to resume receiving staking rewards. Solana Labs co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko urged network members to move staking to another place.

Earlier, the German hosting company Hetzner has already stated that its terms of service prohibit not only mining, but also staking of all crypto assets. The use of company products for applications even remotely related to crypto assets is not allowed.
