   Please provide information about why you believe you qualify to operate Validators in the Canton Network and why you would prefer to do this yourself instead of using one of the existing operators. :
   "We believe we are well-qualified to operate Validators in the Canton Network due to our extensive, proven experience and deep commitment to decentralized infrastructure. As a leading PoS validator, we currently support over 70 global networks including Lido, Sui, Ether.fi, Aptos, Polygon, Story, Aleo, and Near. This breadth of involvement has enabled us to build a robust, scalable, and secure validation framework, tailored to the operational and security needs of each ecosystem. Furthermore, we are the only validator infrastructure company in Korea with a registered VASP (Virtual Asset Service Provider) license, which underlines our compliance, transparency, and operational integrity. Our team has a track record of running highly available, fault-tolerant infrastructure and participating in governance and community efforts, reinforcing our role as a responsible and proactive network contributor. We prefer to operate our own validators instead of using existing operators because it allows us to maintain the highest levels of performance, security, and accountability. By managing the entire stack ourselves, we can respond quickly to incidents, optimize performance, and uphold the standards required for a mission-critical network like Canton Network. We are confident that our experience and infrastructure capabilities will contribute meaningfully to the stability, decentralization, and long-term success of the Canton Network."
