The backbone of decentralized ETH staking
Node operators play an essential role in providing decentralization, security, and fault tolerance
Strengthening Ethereum
SSV makes validators more resilient by turning each validator duty into a multisig-like process executed across multiple independent operators.
Unlock Revenue
Easily set up a node, maintain decentralized validators on the network, and earn SSV tokens for your efforts
Decentralize
Play a crucial part in decentralizing Ethereum’s validation layer by setting up a node according to your specifications
Permissionless
From the largest node operating services to at-home service providers, anyone can join the network
Free Market
Choose and customize your fee for operating validators and become part of a free market of node operators
Fees & Rewards
Operators receive SSV rewards for operating validators on the behalf of stakers.
The protocol allows each operator to configure their node however they see fit and to set their own fees.
Fostering a free-market approach creates a fair and competitive landscape for staking providers, and benefits the whole ecosystem.
Run a node in three simple steps
Easy setup
Run an operator node by installing the SSV Node on the same or different machine as your Ethereum clients
Instant registration
Register your operator through the ssv.network web app or via a transaction directly to the smart contract
Seamless maintenance
Seamlessly monitor your operator node via Grafana and troubleshoot when needed
Decentralized and trustless node operators are the driving force behind Ethereum’s decentralization.
