  We are excited to announce our latest collaboration with Waterfall Network. With just a few clicks, users can now easily create and manage waterfall nodes on the InfStones platform.  Waterfall Network is a scalable, decentralized BlockDAG EVM-compatible Layer 1 protocol. It leverages Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) technology to ensure fast transaction finality and low fees, making it an ideal platform for developers looking to build efficient decentralized applications (dApps). When you run a waterfall node, you contribute to decentralizing the network and earn rewards in WATER, the network's native token. Furthermore, since its public launch on July 17, Waterfall Network has seen a remarkable 339% increase in validators, now ranking as the third most popular network by validator count. This growth underscores the network's potential and the community's trust in its capabilities.  Our collaboration focuses on providing an enterprise-grade infrastructure for deploying and managing waterfall nodes through InfStones' platform. Users can now easily participate in the network's governance and staking activities without extensive technical knowledge. To provide a deeper understanding of our collaboration, we hosted an AMA session on August 16, 2024, where we answered community questions regarding the integration and its benefits for both existing and prospective node operators.  We are continually focused on making advanced blockchain technologies accessible without the need for deep technical expertise. We encourage users to leverage this new integration to create and manage their waterfall nodes directly from the InfStones platform. About Waterfall Network Waterfall is a highly scalable and decentralized BlockDAG EVM-compatible Layer 1 protocol. The distributed protocol is based on DAG (Directed Acyclic Graphs) technology and has fast finality proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus.

We at InfStones are excited to announce our collaboration with SSV Network to integrate their Distributed Validator Technology (DVT) into InfStones' Safe Stake. This integration enhances Ethereum staking as it merges SSV's robust security features with the efficient and user-focused staking solution of Safe Stake. With our collaboration, InfStones will host SSV network operators on the cloud and provide dedicated Execution Layer and Consensus Layer nodes on bare metal to further enhance service Safe Stake reliability. SSV Network is a leader in staking and restaking and is known for its pioneering DVT infrastructure. DVT decentralizes Ethereum validator operations across multiple globally distributed nodes, which ensures continuous operation even if one node fails; this way, the network becomes more fault-tolerant and reduces the risk of penalties associated with validator downtime in traditional staking.
