- The dominance of delegates on the Graph network has not diminished.
- On the other hand, GRT price is trending towards the oversold region as of press time.
picture [GRT] is a decentralized protocol that allows users to query and index data from numerous blockchains. These services are provided by a network of nodes called indexers.
Indexers must stake GRT tokens as collateral to join the network, and they can stake their tokens or delegate them to third parties. However, the network gradually sees more principals than stakeholders.

Learn about The Graph staking and delegation
Staking adds GRT tokens to the protocol as security for joining the network as an indexer. To ensure they have an incentive to act in the best interest of the network, indexers stake their tokens, effectively locking them up as collateral.
In contrast, delegation gives someone else the right to stake your GRT tokens on your behalf. It enables people to participate in the network and earn rewards even if they want to run something other than their own Indexer.
They lend tokens to indexers to be used as collateral when delegating tokens to indexers.
The Supremacy of Delegation on The Graph
According to Dune Analytics, the network always has more delegators than stakers. The popularity of delegation may be due to how simple it is to hand over GRT tokens to other people rather than dealing with the technical details of staking.
As of this writing, there are approximately 1 billion delegates and 500 million stakeholder participants.
