Axelar (AXL)
What is Axelar?
Axelar is a decentralized network designed to link all blockchains, assets, and dApps through universal protocols and APIs. Its goal is to make cross-chain interactions as simple as sending an email—no bridges or extra steps needed.
Built on a proof-of-stake model, the Axelar network enables secure, permissionless cross-chain communication. Validators monitor smart contract gateways and process messages between chains, ensuring smooth and reliable interoperability across the Web3 ecosystem.

Active set
There are 75 active validators ranked by the stake they manage. To enter the active set, a validator must hold more stake than the current 75th.
Slashing
Downtime:
If a validator signs less than 50% of blocks within a window of 35,000 blocks, it will be jailed for 2 hours and incur a 0.01% slashing penalty. No rewards are earned during the jail period.
Double Signing: If a validator attests to two different blocks, it will be slashed by 2% and permanently banned from earning rewards. Delegators staking with that validator will also incur the 2% slashing penalty.
To continue earning, delegators must redelegate to another active validator.
If your validator has been slashed or jailed, consider redelegating to Everstake — a trusted validator with a proven zero-slashing record
