The dYdX Foundation has created a new on-chain governance vote asking the community whether to reduce the maximum number of validators on dYdX Chain from 31 to 21. The vote runs until September 17, 2026 at 03:45 UTC. Details of the proposal are linked in the Foundation's announcement. This is a separate governance proposal from the recently opened market wind-down votes and the v9.7 Chain upgrade vote.
