Congratulations @Ethernodes 👏
100k+ ETH secured is no mean feat, and it's more special when it comes from the entire spectrum between institutions & individual stakers.
We're always glad to support builders dedicated to maintaining resilient infra.
Choose DVT, choose SSV.

Here's how it works 🧵
Charon v1.10 is live!
This release includes:
⚡ Editable fee-recipient
⚡ Cross-client testing for the DV Spec
⚡ Cached VC schedule duties
Dig into the full release 🔽🧵
Security plays a key role behind the SSV Staking launch.
This upgrade introduces deeper protocol changes around ETH-denominated payments, effective balance accounting, and staking rewards.
Here’s how that work was reviewed and prepared 🧵
ObolClaw v0.8.0 is live!
Deploy an AI agent on your own hardware. Sell services. Earn USDC on Mainnet or @base!
One-line install, one command. Agentic commerce on Ethereum!
Here's what shipped 🧵
We proudly present our latest ecosystem report.
The first quarter of 2026 marked an inflection point for Distributed Validators, and for the Obol Stack.
Obol is building foundational technology to power and secure Ethereum's multi-trillion-dollar economy for the long term.
We engaged @trailofbits to audit the cryptography powering Charon’s cluster edit commands, the new feature that makes DVT clusters mutable for the first time.
Nine findings. Zero high-severity. All resolved. Learn more ⏬
Obol has recently distributed several technical and community-focused grants to support projects and individuals building in our ecosystem.
We’re pleased to spotlight the latest wave of grant recipients.
@ssv_network Token return delay UX feedback.
After the cooldown finishes, tokens are not returned instantly — there is an additional delay.
This behavior may confuse users because the UI does not clearly explain the full unstake timeline.
Screenshot below.
Completed the SSV staking testnet flow.
Tested:
• Wallet connection
• Staking SSV → cSSV
• Reward claiming
• Unstaking
Found several UX issues and documented them.

Thanks @ssv_network for the opportunity to test the protocol.
@ssv_network Cooldown UX feedback.
After initiating unstake, a cooldown period starts, but the interface does not clearly explain what happens during this phase.
A clearer explanation or progress indicator would improve user understanding.
Screenshot below.
The Obol Stack v0.6.0 (pre-)release ships with a local model for its agents by default
The latest Qwen 3.5 9B parameter model can run on < 10GB of RAM. You may still want a remote model for speed and the hardest tasks, but a free, private default is a good start for many tasks👇
The latest Obolclaw v0.5.0 (pre-)release gives agents the skills to deploy services to the internet through @CloudflareDev. I asked my agent to serve its address to the internet, and was surprised to see it gave itself a name, wrote some nice HTML, and served it in JSON too.
Soon Obol agents will be able to sell and consume x402 gated services to the internet, and to register them on ERC8004 onchain agent registries. Cool demos to come soon™️.
@OisinKyne@oboL Asked it to test my Hoodi RPC ⚡
Agent wrote Python script on the fly:
• Checked chainId ✅
• Measured latency (98ms avg)
• Compared with public RPC
• Generated JSON report
My RPC was FASTER than public endpoint 🔥
