Exiting Validators

Users can exit validators in two ways:

• by requesting an exit via Northstake's interface (UI or API)
• by broadcasting the pre-signed exit message supplied by Northstake's or by the underlying Node Operator

The first option is generally more user-friendly than the second. However, the second option allows users to exit validators without relying on any third party's liveness, including node operators and Northstake.
