EDIT: Apologies, the original post below I thought was in regards to the post I made yesterday about the OSMO validator I was starting up.

In regards to ATOM tokens staked, there's no minimum - however, the amount of airdropped tokens you'll receive for each service of course is dependant on how many ATOM tokens you stake.

So, the more you stake, the more you're entitled to receive. So nab up as many as you can and stake away since it's free money!

Plus, ATOM is growing insanely lately, and in my personal opinion, will continue to do so - I do not believe we've even scratched the surface of where ATOM will reach a blow-off top - things are just beginning for this bad boy ;)

ORIGINAL POST:

Right now, the focus is on OSMO tokens (not ATOM) - if the OSMO validator launches live and is successful, then I will also focus on ATOM, AKT, and others.

Currently, it seems we have roughly 10k OSMO that people are willing to allocate to my validator - which is about 40% of the goal I'd like to hit in order to keep us in the top 100 so that we actually are able to validate and generate fees.

I'm willing to offer very large rebates for the first wave of people that are interested in helping get this validator live and off the ground / into the top 100.

The staking APR right now is around 177% - meaning the APY (if you restake earnings daily to compound earnings) can be as high as 900%+ - there are MASSIVE rewards to be earned right now. In the past 29 days, I've earned over 5k USD in earnings off of somewhat insignificant amount of OSMO staked.

If you're interested, let me know - I am going to create a poll/form to allow people to submit their usernames and how much OSMO they'd be willing to stake to this validator, so that I can calculate whether or not it's worth it to bear the overhead costs to get this live!
