SSV Network has launched its partner mainnet focused on distributed validator technology.
The SSV mainnet launch features over ten launch partners who will integrate their staking dApps with SSV — including Stader, Ankr, Stakestar, 01node, Metapool, StakeTogether, XHash, Chainup, Coindelta and Claystack. During this launch phase, users can only stake through the partner staking applications. In the fourth quarter, when the network begins the final phase of the rollout called “permissionless launch,” users will be able stake directly with SSV Network and also become a node operator.The SSV Network offers a decentralized staking mechanism by connecting users to a network of “operators” responsible for jointly managing Ethereum validator nodes in a trust-minimized fashion.
