Inclusion of Alpha Growth as Permissioned Node Operator

After thoroughly evaluating various factors like validator performance on the Ethereum (ETH) network, scalability in permissionless node operations, and support provided to ETHx, Stader proposes inclusion of Alpha Growth into the permissioned node operator set.

Alpha Growth has shown unwavering support for ETHx node operations by launching with 100+ validators and scaling to the current count of 500+ in less than 3 months. They were also the first entrant to the SD Utility Pool and were participants in the group to test & implement the use of DVT in partnership with SSV for Stader. Additionally, the team is dedicated to significantly increasing their permissionless capacity in the future.

As we move forward, Stader DAO remains committed to expanding our node operator group and looks forward to strategic expansion of the permissioned node operator set.
