NEAR Validators & Staking API
Read NEAR's validator set and network economics live from a public NEAR RPC endpoint — no key. NEAR is sharded proof-of-stake: validators stake NEAR, produce blocks and chunks across shards, and earn rewards. The NEAR on-chain reader resolves a single account's state and the view reader runs contract view methods, but neither surfaces the validator set, the next-epoch staking proposals, or the live network economics. This opens that. List the current epoch's validators ranked by stake — each with its account id, stake in NEAR, the blocks and chunks it produced versus expected (its uptime) and slash status; read the next-epoch staking proposals (the validators entering, leaving or re-staking for the upcoming epoch); and read the live network economics — the gas price (in yoctoNEAR), the epoch length in blocks, the protocol version and the block/chunk producer kickout thresholds. The validator / staking / network layer for NEAR explorers, staking dashboards, delegators and analytics. Distinct from the NEAR on-chain account reader and the NEAR view-function reader. Live from RPC; short cache only.
