Ask HN: Thoughts on monitoring multi-chain staking and alerts with KoinyxBot
eeezl0dey Thursday, January 22, 2026I’ve been working on a Telegram bot to help me (and others) track staking activity across multiple proof-of-stake networks.
Over time staking rewards can vary for reasons that aren’t obvious at a glance, like:
validator performance drift,
commission changes,
reward timing differences between networks, or
subtle slashing-related events.
Most dashboards show current state (balance/APY) but not significant changes over time or the events that caused them. That makes it easy to miss drift until you notice lower than expected rewards.
So I built a monitoring bot that watches many wallets across chains and focuses on generating alerts when things meaningfully change, rather than polling frequently for small or irrelevant changes.
The bot is already usable via Telegram (@KoinyxBot) and I post updates to a channel (@koinyx). There’s no public landing page yet, so I’m skipping a URL here — but I wanted to ask this community directly:
What are the most useful signals or events you think a multi-chain staking monitor should alert about? For example:
meaningful drops in reward rate vs historical pace,
validator performance anomalies,
unexpected epochs with no rewards,
changes in commission or validator status,
cross-chain differences in timing of reward distributions.
I’m not looking for marketing feedback — just what patterns or notifications would actually be useful to people who stake actively across networks.
Thanks for any perspectives!
