We would like to thank the great community that formed around this emerging change. It was a pleasure to be able to validate concepts and details, ranging from the simplest to the most "abstract" ones with such great people. Some of the ones that invested their time in helping us make sure we are not missing any detail are, in no particular order: Jack Zampolin & Zaki Manian (Tendermint), H. Yung (B-Harvest), Kwun Yeung (Forbole), Adrian Brink (Cryptium Labs), Florian Liss (Staking Facilities), George Bunea (syncnode), Hendrik & Leo (Certus One) and Aurel Iancu (Dokia Capital).

Best of wishes,

Pavel Antohe
CEO & Founder Kuende & Validator Co-founder

Hi everyone,

A small introduction. NewRoad.Capital started at the end of 2017 under the name TezosVote. After a successful start on Tezos network as Baker (validator), we made the switch to other POS blockchains. We are now also active on IRISnet and of course Cosmos under the name NewRoad.Capital

A little information about our setup:
We have a main and a backup validator. Both are in two different (Dutch) datacenter (in 2 availability-zones). They both have redundant power&(dedicated)network . The validators are behind a hardware firewall and both have their own software firewall .They connected through a ddos protected vpn with our own hosted cosmos nodes.

We have our own written monitoring software that keeps us informed with the health status of our two validator (and nodes) and warn us by email, sms or telegram notifications in case of a failure.

Hello Cosmos Atom holder!

The Chainflow Cosmos Validator went live at Cosmos network launch on March 13, 2019 at 0000 UTC. You can find it in the genesis file.

My name’s Chris Remus and I run the Chainflow Cosmos Validator. I’m an original Cosmos Validator Working Group member. I joined the group in October 2017 and have been validating since then. You can learn more about me here.

This FAQ applies to the staking systems I run, including the Chainflow Cosmos Validator. It also explains my motivations for running staking systems. Please contact me if it doesn’t answer all your questions.

Finally, please use this address to delegate to me -

These instructions walk you through the process. (I’m working on a more concise version :wink:) Contact me if you’d like help with the process.

With my gratitude :pray:

Chris

We got a new blog post outlining our validator architecture and why a decentralized validator set is good for Cosmos. Take a look: https://medium.com/umbrellavalidator/umbrella-validator-overview-1995be8386c1

Help decentralization by delegating to smaller validators such ours! :rocket:

We are up and running with only 2% fees and would love to have you on board: https://posbakerz.com/

Hi! I know it is a bit late, sorry for that :sweat_smile:

This is an small fish validator, based on Spain.

We participated in GoS and won the award of the Uptime category thanks to our good performance.

We are also contributing largely in the “Spread of the word” localy in our community, and facilitating the adoption by mean of good material translations into Spanish and community education (meetups, University talks etc…)

Here there is an Spanish guide for delegators using cosmotation wallet or ledger:

Those past month have been very exiting for us and we are growing solid in the ecosystem.

We contributed by educating. Find here recents meetups in which we talked in deep about Cosmos:

Regards.

Greetings everyone!

Please add us 🌐KysenPool.io to the list, better late than never :smiley:https://www.kysenpool.io/

We’re a Silicon Valley-based company, and have been following the Cosmos project closely over the past couple of years. We launched our Validator services earlier this year. Our team backed by members with a background in Cloud Scalability and PoW mining. Our background maps to PoS validation rather easily and happy to be participating in strengthening the Cosmos Hub network and beyond!

The setup that we’ve launched includes a privately caged set of dedicated servers with biometric access control in a Tier 3 Equinix facility, combined with peer nodes on the public Cloud. We’ve built out a resilient setup so far and will be looking into improving it over time, closely matching the developments of Cosmos!

Company

Gate Omega is experienced node operator based in Turkey. We are a team of 4 and currently focusing on disruptive and innovative crypto projects. Gate Omega team consists of professionals who have : - 20+ years IT experience in different domains; server management, cloud computing and information security. - Project management - Operations - Finance

Experience

We are currently and successfully operating :

  • Solana testnet

Security

We mainly use OVH infrastructure with DDOS protection.
Secret management (e.g. server access credentials and private keys) is done by using Hashicorp Vault.

Reliability

Server level (e.g. disk space, memory, CPU) and node specific metrics are monitored real-time and alerts are generated by using pre-defined thresholds by using Prometheus, Grafana and some custom scripts. We also have a weekly manual health check procedure to ensure our nodes are performing at required service level.

Performance

We are using bare metal servers located in Europe and America. High I/O, Raid 1 mirrored NVME disks are used. Each server is dedicated to a specific node, thus nodes are physically separated / isolated from each other. Servers are selected in different locations to minimize risk of disasters happening in one location effecting many services.

Communication

We are easily accessible via Twitter @gateomega and e-mail hello@gateomega.com.

Governance

As per our governance process we are aiming to monitor proposals and listen to our delegators. We actively involve in voting to represent our community. Another trigger is our observations and operational experience to raise proposals.
