Are you looking to start staking and searching for a validator that can help you reach your goals? At 01NODE, we focus on delivering a secure, high-performance, and decentralized staking solution. What sets us apart from other validators? Our infrastructure, three data centers (including one fully owned by us), and the fact that we own our own ASN and IP address blocks.
These are not just technical details – they are the pillars that uphold the security, reliability, and decentralization of our operations. Let’s break them down so you can better understand our process and make an informed decision that benefits you and your investments.
Our infrastructure – what it means and why it matters
Most validators rely on third-party cloud services like AWS, Google Cloud, or Microsoft Azure. While these solutions are convenient, they come with a major risk: centralization. If many validators run on the same cloud platforms, the network becomes vulnerable to attacks or service outages.
At 01NODE, we’ve made significant investments to build our infrastructure, meaning we’re not dependent on third-party providers to keep our nodes online.
Three Data Centers – why this is a key advantage
A data center is a physical facility that houses servers and networking equipment essential for blockchain operation. Validators relying on a single data center are exposed to greater risk in case of technical issues or cyberattacks.
We operate three strategically distributed data centers, one of which we fully own, giving us maximum control. This comes with significant advantages:
- Redundancy and continuity – If one data center experiences an outage, our nodes remain operational via the other locations.
- Guaranteed uptime – With presence in multiple locations, we ensure uninterrupted transaction validation for our clients.
True decentralization – We’re not tied to a single provider or location, making the network more resilient and secure.
We own our ASN and IP Address Blocks – why this matters to you
Most validators do not own their ASN (Autonomous System Number) or IP address blocks and instead rely on infrastructure from third parties. This dependency can lead to censorship, service interruptions, and higher latency due to lack of routing control.
At 01NODE, we own our own ASN and IP blocks, giving us full independence, enhanced security, and optimized performance for our clients.
What is an ASN?
An Autonomous System Number (ASN) is a unique identifier assigned to an entity that manages a group of interconnected networks and can implement its routing policies across the internet. Owning an ASN means we have complete control over how data flows through our network, without relying on other providers.
What are IP Address Blocks?
IP addresses are essential for identifying and locating nodes on a network. Most validators use IPs provided by third-party vendors. In an ever-growing blockchain ecosystem, differences between validators become increasingly important. At 01NODE, we’ve committed to offering our clients a secure, decentralized, and high-performing infrastructure by removing third-party dependencies and optimizing every aspect of transaction validation.
This direct control over data routing helps reduce the risk of censorship, throttling, or blocking by external providers. It also allows us to fine-tune our nodes’ performance, ensuring high uptime and low latency – resulting in a more efficient and secure staking experience.
Conclusion
At 01NODE, we’ve built an infrastructure that prioritizes security, performance, and decentralization. By owning our data centers, ASN, and IP address blocks, we eliminate the risks tied to third-party dependencies and offer a safer, more reliable staking solution.
If you’re a user seeking stable and profitable staking, choosing a validator with its own infrastructure is essential. You’ll benefit from higher uptime, improved security, and contribute to a more decentralized and robust blockchain network.
At 01NODE, we’re actively focused on optimizing performance and reducing risks for our clients. Whether you’re an experienced investor or new to staking, our infrastructure ensures that your funds are validated securely and efficiently.
Ultimately, what truly sets 01NODE apart from other validators is not just our technology, but our commitment to providing a premium experience. By choosing us, you’re not only getting a top-tier validator but also a dedicated team that protects your investment and helps you achieve the best possible returns.
