SSV Node

✨Introduction

SSV is a secure and scalable staking infrastructure powering the future of distributed ETH re/staking.

SSV uses an MPC threshold scheme with a consensus layer on top (Istanbul BFT), that governs the network.
Its core strength is in its robustness and fault tolerance which leads the way for an open network of staking operators to run validators in a decentralized and trustless way.
