According to the official StarkWare website, validator commission cannot exceed 10%. Were you aware of this condition before submitting your application? Have you reviewed the other requirements for participating in delegation?

Regarding decentralization: currently, non-top validators hold only around 4-5% of the stake, which is extremely low. In this context, manually increasing grants to one’s own delegation is unlikely to improve the situation - if anything, it may further imbalance the system.
That said, it’s great to see you actively contributing to the discussion - perspectives like yours are essential for the ecosystem’s growth.
