We’re Launching Institutional-Grade Validator Cluster on Ethereum

Validators secure the Ethereum network and earn staking rewards. Traditional setups run on single operators, which creates downtime risk when that operator has issues. Downtime means missed attestations, penalties, and reduced rewards.

We've launched an Ethereum staking cluster with LTIN, Bitcoin Suisse, and Obol using Distributed Validator Technology to fix this.

How It Works

Distributed Validator Technology splits validator keys across multiple independent operators. One goes offline, the others keep validating. There's no single point of failure.

The cluster distributes validator key shares across independent operators and geographies. A threshold of operators must sign to validate, so the cluster maintains operation even when individual nodes go down. To the Ethereum network, this appears as a single validator with higher resilience..

The Parties

LTIN operates Liechtenstein's state-backed blockchain infrastructure, majority-owned by Telecom Liechtenstein.

Bitcoin Suisse has operated Swiss crypto infrastructure since 2013, managing over 5 billion CHF in assets under custody as one of the world's largest custodial staking providers.

Solstice Staking manages 7,000+ validator nodes with over $1b in staked assets from renewable-energy Swiss data centers.

Obol pioneered the DVT coordination layer via its Charon middleware client, enabling trust-minimized staking across major protocols including Lido.

The parties spread operations across Switzerland and Liechtenstein with independent entities. This geographic and operational distribution delivers better uptime, slashing protection, and redundancy

What This Delivers

Most single-operator setups can't deliver institutional-grade infrastructure and technical resilience together with clear operational frameworks.

This cluster does: real-time monitoring, auditable operations, and transparent reporting.

The cluster is live. Banks, asset managers, funds, and custodians can access it through LTIN, Bitcoin Suisse, Solstice Staking, or Obol.

More validator diversity makes the network stronger. This multi-entity setup helps Ethereum's decentralization while serving institutional staking needs.
