Can I change validators after staking $OM?
Yes, you can redelegate your $OM coins to a new validator without having to unstake them first. This is done through the redelegation process, where you choose a new validator and input the amount you want to move.
Cooldown period
After you redelegate your coins, the new validator is subject to a cooldown period during which your coins staked in that validator cannot be redelegated again. This approach is important for enhancing network security by preventing frequent switching between validators, which can destabilize the staking ecosystem.
You will continue to earn staking rewards even during the cooldown period.
