Trusted Node

Trusted Node is a decentralized, non-custodial validator service and governance hub enabling users to participate in PoS blockchain rewards and governance without the need to personally operate the validator nodes. Trusted Node DAO and its partners own and operate an array of validator nodes. Users have the ability to delegate coins to their chosen PoS networks, and rewards are subsequently distributed back to them. Depending on the platform’s feature utilized, rewards will be paid in blockchains’ native token, liquid derivatives, or Trusted Node token (TNODE). Trusted Node utilizes the concept of liquid staking to promote staking and bring capital back to PoS. Users staking their coins can create liquid, synthetic tokens, i.e. representations of their locked coins, which they can then hold, trade, sell, or deposit into Trusted Node vaults or DeFi protocols. Liquid staking enables users to gain dual rewards from securing the PoS networks AND providing liquidity to high-APY vaults. Unlike PoS staking pools and staking services, Trusted Node is decentralized, non-custodial, and governed by Trusted Node DAO. It gives users complete ownership and control of their assets. The platform also focuses on promoting DAO and user participation in the PoS governance through state-of-the-art UX. Our mission is to improve the safety, usability, and resilience of the PoS ecosystems and enable all users to directly participate in staking rewards and decentralized governance.
