OKX Announces the Listing of SSV

Cointime Official

VICTORIA, Seychelles, March. 1, 2023 -- OKX, the world-leading cryptocurrency platform announces the listing of SSV, a decentralized staking infrastructure that enables the distributed operation of an Ethereum validator. 

It is achieved by splitting a validator key between four or more non-trusting node instances (‘multi-operator node’). The nodes are collectively tasked with executing the validator's duties under a consensus mechanism. In simple terms, the protocol transforms a validator key into a multi-sig construct governed by a consensus layer.

The unique protocol improves the robustness, liveliness, and fault tolerance of nodes across the Ethereum ecosystem. Distributing validator keys between node instances suggests a major leap forward compared to existing staking schemes that fall short when it comes to:

  • Validator keys can be stored offline
  • Active to active’ redundancy
  • Node instances customizability
  • Threshold signature scheme

ssv.network is the first public implementation of the SSV primitive, which originated as a research piece by the Ethereum Foundation back in 2019 and since then has grown to a DAO-governed, community-driven network of stakers, builders and node operators.

OKX Ventures is among ssv.network’s investors. Founder of OKX Ventures Dora commented, "We are excited to support ssv.network. We are also a founding member of its $50 Million Ecosystem Fund dedicated to supporting the development of Distributed Validator Technology (“DVT”) based applications to usher in the next wave of Ethereum staking technologies."
