A big part of being involved in a community
is making sure that your voice is heard.
There are multiple voting systems integrated
in the Telos blockchain, but today we are going
to show you how to vote for Validators, also known as
block producers. Validators are the ones that
keep the chain running. They are an essential component
in keeping the Telos blockchain online 24/7.
validators will not only produce Blocks efficiently,
but will also add additional value to the Telos blockchain ecosystem.
This, for example, can be accomplished by
Being available to Telos tech and non-tech communities,
developing useful DAPPs and tools,
promoting Telos to a wider audience,
participating in problem solving discussions and provide solutions
and dealing with issues in a timely manner.
Last week, Telos achieved a milestone producing the 200.000.000th block
without any downtime, EVER! This monumental fact shows Telos’
voting system works and is THE way to go
forward aiming for mainstream adoption.
Now let’s find out where you can find info on
Telos Validators and also how to vote for them.

On top you can find the current vote leader.
There are 21 elected validators ranked 1 to 21. Elected validators
take scheduled turns in producing blocks.
Validators ranked 22 to 42 are on standby, this basically means
they are on backup duty (in case something goes wrong).
These little icons next to the name are links to their websites
nd socials. Here you can find out what’s keeping them busy
and learn about their contribution to the Telos Blockchain.
If you like what you see, vote for them!

to cast your votes, but today we are using anchor wallet:
