Today was another good day for @SecretNetwork - $SCRT

Proposal #85 passed increasing the active validator set on the Network from 70 - 80

This does not immediately increase decentralization but it does bring in members contributing to code and infrastructure

An introduction 👇
1/n

@crypto_crew is a validator organization running on multiple chains like $DVPN $STARS $ATOM $OSMO and now $SCRT.

They helped with relaying #IBC transactions on Secret since September 2021 and are now finally joining the set.

2/n

#IBC is free for users because the relayer itself pays the fees. @crypto_crew has been paying fees for users for months without getting commission as a validator to recoup those costs.

We are happy to see them join the active set and get support from the ecosystem.
3/n

@nodes_smart is a well respected validator company running on multiple #IBC chains like $KAVA $ATOM $AKT $JUNO $CMDX and more.

They offer downtime slash protection for their users and with their vast network and IT knowledge they will be an asset for the ecosystem.
4/n

@notionaldao and their founder @gadikian are known for running local hardware in their own office instead of distant servers for all their nodes.

They not only validate but also relay and contribute code to chains like $OSMO $JUNO and now $SCRT

You can delegate to support!
5/n

Digiline is a validator ran by Danny and Gino. They are both application developers on @SecretNetwork most known for their game @SCRTDreamscape and input in the Developer committee.

They are active community members and easy to reach on discord if you like that :)
6/n

@blockpane is a small 2 man team founded by Todd Garrison in 2018. The team validates on chains like $ROWAN $JUNO $KAVA and now $SCRT

They have a nice collections of repositories helpful for other validators (including 1 for snapshots📸) and are very active in governance.
7/n

@ConsensusOne is a validator based in Poland and part of the so called #BareMetalAlliance . This group runs their own hardware for their validators which is not an easy and cheap task, especially not with the SGX requirements for $SCRT

They also validate on $ROWAN $OSMO
8/n

@Simply_VC stands for Simply Virtual Currency and has been in the Cosmos since the very beginning.

The team started with Funding projects but is now focused on delivering enterprise grade staking and development to core #COSMOS protocols like $ATOM $REGEN $DSM $SOMM etc
9/n

@StakeLab is a french organization validating on almost every single #IBC chain. They address a whole new community and actively support those users.

They are also an active Relayer for $SCRT and part of the @Ledger and @ChihuahuaChain team with founder @Zdeadex
10/n

These were the validators who just joined the active set but some have been battling it out over the past weeks, ill mention them.

Want to improve decentralization? 🕶️

Move stake from the top to the bottom! 🔥

200k $SCRT delegated = sustainable validator at 5% commission

I hope this thread got you some insight into what validators do for the network and which profile best suits you as a delegator.

Top 18 needed to Alter the chain 🙃
@notionaldao @gadikian We are only 1 day in and they start delivering!

Governance, Relaying, code, hardware geeks. Good combo for a validator :)
