26.4% in a validator/staking reserve is the largest single 'consensus security' bucket in modern L1s — Celo's design assumes the chain needs deep stake to defend its identity-bound primitives. Founders building consumer-payment chains should know phone-number identity has been tried (Celo, Worldcoin); both eventually migrated away from the original thesis.
