Raised commission. Delegators earn less.

Validator raised their commission rate. Every percentage-point increase reduces the share of rewards flowing to delegators. Changes near epoch boundaries are worth extra scrutiny, a pattern some operators use to capture rewards right before delegators can react.

Stopped running Jito-Solana. Delegators no longer earn MEV tips.

Validator just switched from jito-solana to the stock Agave client, meaning MEV tip revenue that would have flowed to delegators is now being forfeited. A deliberate change, not a technical issue. Worth understanding why.

Went dark. Missed votes.

Validator stopped participating in consensus and was flagged delinquent by the network. Delegators earn zero rewards for every epoch this persists. There is no automatic recovery - the validator must catch up and resume voting before rewards resume.
