Grant funds will accelerate the following initiatives:
- Staker’s Network: On our quest for error-free, easy to use deployment of validators we tackle the complexity of the ecosystem at the core so users don’t have to. Solo staking is not the only way to be a Home Operator anymore, and we are implementing DVT, like Obol and SSV, LSTs, like Lido CSM or StakeWise, and streamlining the connections and networking between pieces of software for a rapidly growing validator ecosystem with any number of possible combinations.
- Developer Ecosystem: Bringing in more applications to the DAppStore brings more value to the users. Hence, a big focus is on enhancing future iterations of the SDK to offer developers a smoother deployment experience for Dappnode packages.
- AI Ecosystem: With a growing intersection between crypto and AI, developing privacy-focused, self-hosted AI models that protect users’ data is the next frontier for decentralized computing.
