post

https://api.stake.fish/api/v1/chains/cosmos/transactions/prepare/redelegate

Prepare an unsigned transaction to move delegation from another validator to stake.fish instantly.

Important Notes:
• Switch to stake.fish validator without unbonding penalty or delay
• Requires active delegation with a non-stake.fish validator
• Tokens move to stake.fish immediately, continue earning rewards
• 21-day cooldown before re-redelegating same tokens
• Special feature: Use amount="0" to redelegate the entire delegation amount
