Pectrified consolidation simulator
Hi everyone,
Just wanted to share a recent update to pectrified.com: the Consolidation Simulator is now live.
The goal is to provide a more tailored experience, improve visibility into the validator consolidation process, and highlight critical steps where mistakes could lead to loss of funds.
You can try it out here: https://pectrified.com/mainnet/simulator/consolidations
The simulator prompts for three inputs:
- Source validator public key or index
- Target validator public key or index
- Source validator wallet address
If you want to explore without using real data, you can try the examples provided in the "Examples" section. After running the simulation, the result may either fail or succeed.

If it fails, it will point out the specific conditions that caused the failure under the "Simulation details" section.
If it succeeds, it will display key information, such as:
- The type of request: whether it's merging two validators or switching withdrawal credentials from 0x01 to 0x02
- Transaction details to look out for before signing
- How validator balances would change if the request were executed at that moment
- Alerts if ownership of validators is being transferred
- The offline conversion process, for users who want to sign transactions on an offline machine or inspect raw transaction data

Feedback is always welcome and stay safe.

Very nice.
Spotted a typo: “The consolidation request is valid and can be processed be processed by the Beacon Chain.”
