sh@...Short description of Applying Institution :
Era Networks DMCC operates under the Staketab brand and is a leading non-custodial staking provider, infrastructure developer, and blockchain technology innovator. Since 2020, we have provided professional staking services across 50+ Proof-of-Stake networks, including Ethereum, Sui, Mina, Cosmos, Near, Babylon etc., while maintaining 99.9% uptime and earning multiple grants and awards. Our infrastructure ecosystem includes highly available validator nodes, public and private RPC endpoints, advanced blockchain explorers (such as Silvascan, Suiscan, Walruscan, Minascan, Iotascan, and Zekoscan https://staketab.com/labs), the Blockberry API platform, and the Silvana zkProver Engine — a next-generation proving system for scalable zero-knowledge proof generation. With a global presence and deep expertise in blockchain operations, Staketab is committed to enhancing decentralization, reliability, and innovation across Web3 ecosystems.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. :
Staketab possesses the technical expertise, infrastructure capabilities, and operational maturity necessary to be an ideal Validator Operator for the Canton Network. With over four years of successful experience in blockchain validation and infrastructure management our system is built for redundancy, high performance, and minimal downtime, and it is complemented by sophisticated in-house monitoring, alerting, and automated incident response systems. Staketab is not merely a staking provider; we actively contribute to ecosystem growth by developing products such as blockchain explorers, API services, and advanced zk-proving solutions, notably through our proprietary Silvana zkProver Engine. Silvana represents a strategic move into the zero-knowledge space, offering fast, scalable proof generation that can support next-generation decentralized applications and digital asset infrastructures. We prefer to operate our own Validator Node on the Canton Network rather than delegating this responsibility to a third-party operator to ensure that we meet our own rigorous standards for security, performance, and responsiveness. Managing the Validator Node directly enables us to maintain full-stack control, optimize operational efficiencies, and contribute proactively to the network’s decentralization and reliability. Our participation would not only strengthen the network’s validator set with enterprise-grade infrastructure but also bring in a seasoned team committed to innovation, decentralization, and the long-term success and expansion of the Canton ecosystem.Contact at an existing Node Operator who will sponsor your onboarding process:
