Why Delegate to Us?:
We focus on building professional-grade infrastructure that ensures high performance and accessibility for the Story network. Our validation approach is based on three core elements:
-
Technical Resilience: We maintain 100% Uptime (validator uptime report) and utilize an automated monitoring system with real-time incident alerts for our technical team. We conduct regular security audits and prioritize true decentralization by deploying servers across diverse geographic regions and independent data centers.
-
Ecosystem Contribution: We actively develop and support community tools, including IPHub, Unity AI, Public Service. Additionally, we dedicate significant effort to Story’s media growth by publishing research articles, X posts, and hosting AMAs. We have already organized 3 successful offline events and continue to do so regularly, leveraging all available resources.
-
Experience and Strategic Stability: With a proven track record across 10+ networks, we fully understand the responsibility of being a Mainnet validator. We provide the level of stability and security that our delegators can rely on.
By delegating to us, you support a team that technically strengthens Story, builds essential tools for users, developers, and validators, and invests in community growth through media support and offline events.
