seamus@...Short description of Applying Institution :
Established in 2018, Pier Two is an Australian-based, global institutional staking provider, operating highly performant hybrid cloud and bare metal infrastructure.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. :
Pier Two is a qualified and highly capable candidate to operate validators in the Canton Network due to its institutional-grade expertise, secure infrastructure, and consistent operational excellence across multiple blockchain ecosystems. As an ISO 27001:2022 and SOC2 - Type 1 certified provider working with over AUD$3B in staked assets, Pier Two has delivered secure and high-performance validator operations since 2018 across Ethereum, Solana, NEAR, Polygon, TON, EigenLayer, Berachain, Babylon, and more, with a flawless slashing record and 99.99% uptime. Our infrastructure is rigorously engineered for resilience and regulatory compliance, with robust slashing protections and client-first operational design. By running our own validators rather than outsourcing to existing operators, we retain full control over performance, security, and incident response, ensuring the highest standards are upheld without compromise—particularly important in high-trust environments like Canton.Contact at an existing Node Operator who will sponsor your onboarding process:
