Swap validators on a subnet with the taostats transfer tool.

The [Taostats Transfer](https://taostats.io/pro/transfer/transfer-alpha)  page makes switching your validator easy.

1. With a [Connected wallet](https://beta.taostats.io/docs/concepts/wallets-accounts/connecting-your-wallet), choose the subnet you wish to swap

   When all looks good, click Confirm and enter your wallet password.  The transfer of your stake to the new validator will be completed on chain.
