This survey should take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. Your responses will be kept confidential and will only be used in aggregate to inform our development and community engagement strategies. When you finish survey, please drop address for surprise.

Obol Collective x Gnosis Chain

We're expanding our partnership with Obol Collective to provide new opportunities for node operators. Gnosis Chain validators are now whitelisted for the Obol Techne program, which offers access to various Distributed Validator Technology (DVT) resources.

Obol Techne holders will have future opportunities to become node operators within the Gnosis Chain ecosystem.

If you are interested, apply for the Obol Techne Credential today.

Vero - a new multi-node validator client for Ethereum and Gnosis Chain

Vero is a multi-node validator client, now released as a fully open-source public good developed by Serenita team. Its codebase consists of just ~2,100 lines of source code, with only 9 direct and 35 total external dependencies.

Vero currently powers thousands of our Holesky testnet and Gnosis Chain validators. After months of testing on local devnets and public testnets, Serenita have reached the point where they want to encourage other operators to try it out, especially if they haven't adopted multi-node setups yet.

Circles Node Campaign with Circles x Dappnode x Gnosis Chain

To enhance network decentralization, we're focusing on expanding node distribution in underrepresented regions, particularly West Africa. Our goal is to increase Gnosis Chain's Nakamoto coefficient by adding nodes in countries like Ghana.
