SSV launches $50M ecosystem fund to support ETH staking tech
Validator infrastructure developer ssv.network has launched a new ecosystem fund to support Ethereum proof-of-stake decentralization — a move that the company said would promote innovation around Ether (ETH) staking technologies.
The ecosystem fund, valued at $50 million, will support projects building applications using distributed validator technology, or DVT, the company announced on Jan.

The protocol was a key component of Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin’s roadmap for Eth 2.0, as more DVT implementation means more decentralization.
