Accountability measures, such as publicly tracking validator performance and actions, encourage transparency and responsible behavior.
In decentralized networks, community governance mechanisms allow participants to propose and vote on changes to the protocol, ensuring that validators adhere to established rules and guidelines.
Validators play a critical role in ensuring the security, integrity, and overall functioning of PoS-based blockchain systems. When they validate incorrect or malicious transactions, it can have far-reaching consequences that impact network security, economics, reputation, and user trust.

Slashing is a punitive mechanism designed to financially penalize validators who engage in malicious activities or fail to perform their duties correctly. By imposing significant economic losses on wrongdoers, slashing acts as a deterrent against dishonest behavior.
