With Ethereum switching to Proof-of-Stake, it has become clear that environmentally-friendly methods of supporting decentralized economies have won. But we still have room to grow! A new movement, Validators for Good and Impact Staking has been growing beneath the surface and is ready to break out into the primetime.
What Are Validators For Good?
Validator nodes are a critical element of Proof-of-Stake networks which receive compensation for helping to support blockchain economies. Validators For Good are Proof-of-Stake validators who volunteer to donate some or all of their proceeds to support good causes.
You can find a Twitter list of them here.
In this broadcast, we have invited the following Validators for Good to join and share about their experience offering validator nodes as a “Public Good.”
Spirals Protocol
carbonZero
ECOStake.net
Wind Power Stake
