After the Helicon upgrade of Avalanche, the C-Chain is faster—but the validators face greater pressure too!

Avalanche’s latest network upgrade, Helicon, improves the execution efficiency of the C-Chain, with network response times significantly faster. At the same time, validators must meet higher uptime requirements, increasing from 80% to 90%, otherwise they won’t be able to earn rewards. This means that while validators enjoy technological progress, they also feel new challenges.

The staking period has been reduced from 14 days to 48 hours, allowing validators to manage funds more flexibly. But does this mean more short-term investors will flood into the market?

Avalanche has also adjusted its reward mechanism: the minimum reward consumption rate has been reduced from 10% to 7.5%, and will decline gradually over the next 90 days. How will these changes to the economic model affect the market performance of $AVAX ?

In light of these changes, how will validators respond to the new challenges? And how will the market react?
