    Short description of Applying Institution :
    At Nodes.Guru, we've been operating blockchain nodes since 2019, building a strong reputation as a top-tier staking provider and validator especially across CometBFT and other Proof of Stake (PoS) networks. We've secured over $600 million in assets over 69 mainnets and earned the trust of more than 60,000 delegators. In addition to validator nodes, we also run infrastructure for restaking protocols like EigenLayer, cross-chain messaging solutions such as LayerZero and Hyperlane, BTC staking on Babylon, and offer essential infrastructure services including RPCs, APIs, full nodes, snapshots, and more.


    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. :
    Nodes.Guru was founded in 2020 by the team of IT professionals, backed up by the edge enterprises of solution architect at Accenture, NetCracker and the top-notch companies. We know how to deliver the quality products and love it, as we've been doing for all our lives, including the cutting-edge tech products - NC solutions (more than 2 bln users worldwide), Tiknoff (90 mln neo-bank & investments solution). We do know how to deliver the best of the best product starting from analysis till the roll-out and and we are the best at it, including as-is -> to be modeling, waterfall to agile transformation, FRs, quality assurance best practices, including triage, autotests and E2E. We leverage this expertise to operate validators, build real-time monitoring tools, develop blockchain indexers and custom multichain explorers, dashboards and support testnets with automated deployment scripts and community documentation. With a globally distributed infrastructure and 24/7 monitoring, we ensure the reliability and security of nodes across major Layer 1 networks. Thus we believe we are qualified to run separate validator node and enhance the network robustness.
