SSV Network Partners With Sigma Prime To Launch Second Validator Client
In Brief
SSV Network has partnered with Sigma Prime to launch a second validator client and integrate Commit-Boost to enhance validator capabilities.
Decentralized and scalable staking infrastructure provider SSV Network announced that it has strengthened its commitment to playing a key role in Ethereum’s decentralization efforts, particularly as outlined in Vitalik Buterin’s Scourge phase.
As Ethereum addresses the risks of centralization and major protocols transition toward distributed validation, SSV Network DAO has partnered with Sigma Prime, the developer of Ethereum’s Lighthouse client. This collaboration has led to the launch of a second validator client and the integration of Commit-Boost to improve validator capabilities, particularly in terms of validator commitments. This move aligns with Vitalik Buterin’s vision for the future of Ethereum staking, as discussed at the Staking Summit in Bangkok.
The introduction of a second validator client by Sigma Prime will reduce the single points of failure inherent in traditional staking setups, increasing the security and resilience of the SSV Distributed Validator Technology (DVT) network. This enhancement supports Ethereum’s core principles of validator diversity and decentralization.
Additionally, the integration of Commit-Boost, an open-source tool that works with MEV-Boost, will offer validators greater flexibility in specifying block construction. This will enhance rewards and foster a more equitable and flexible staking ecosystem, further promoting a decentralized and secure Ethereum network.
SSV.Network Launches Its Simple DVT Software Module And Opens It For Deposits
The SSV.Network is a fully decentralized, open-source Ethereum staking network built on Secret Shared Validator (SSV) technology, also referred to as Distributed Validator Technology (DVT). It offers an infrastructure solution for decentralizing Ethereum validators by distributing their operations across multiple independent, non-trusting nodes within the network.
Recently, the platform has launched the Simple DVT Software Module, which enables the deployment of SSV-powered distributed validators (DVs). This new module is now open for deposits, allowing participants to engage with the infrastructure. The SSV Network’s DVT will be utilized by participants in the cluster to manage the DVs associated with Lido, a middleware solution designed for liquid staking on Ethereum.
