＋ OPERATOR GUIDE

# Verify the identity.  
Then inspect the conditions.

Start with the published operator address and its network. A familiar name or logo is not sufficient evidence that two staking interfaces refer to the same validator.

## 1\. Match network and environment.

Choose the intended network from the [network directory](https://stakr.space/networks/). Keep mainnet and devnet/testnet records separate. For example, the Octra link is explicitly a devnet address, while the Cosmos Hub page identifies a Cosmos Hub validator.

## 2\. Compare the full identifier.

Compare the full address or operator identifier shown on the network page with the destination profile. For Cosmos Hub, match `cosmosvaloper1j3remw0kpu5cwkhhkwtmenutzcdn06c4wq0s56`. For Fermah, the published identifier is the prover name `cp0x`, not a wallet address.

A network-wide dashboard, such as the Interfold Dashboard, requires another step to identify a particular operator. The directory labels this difference.

## 3\. Review current conditions at the source.

Check current commission, active-set participation and any withdrawal or unbonding conditions that apply. Inspect timestamps on performance data. A previously published APY or uptime number is not a current measurement.

## 4\. Distinguish the route.

Direct staking, liquid staking and restaking can use different interfaces and conditions. On Solana, the validator profile and stakrSOL route are separate resources. On shared-security systems, identify the specific vault, network or AVS relationship.

## 5\. Resolve discrepancies before proceeding.

If identifiers differ or an interface is unavailable, stop and confirm the destination through [STAKR.space’s published contact channels](https://stakr.space/contact/). This website never asks for a seed phrase or private key. It links to external interfaces; it does not sign or submit transactions.
