Obol - The largest Decentralized Operator Ecosystem in Ethereum


Listen Later

Kody Sale (Head of Product) and Anthony Bertolino (Head of Marketing & Ecosystem) are leading Obol's charge to scale the next generation of infrastructure networks. Together, they're building the largest Decentralized Operator Ecosystem in Ethereum and Web3—powered by Obol's groundbreaking distributed validator technology.

Why you should listen

Obol Network is building a decentralized staking infrastructure for proof‑of‑stake networks like Ethereum. Obol enables Distributed Validators (DVs): validator clusters made up of multiple operators who jointly run a validator, each holding partial key shares (via Distributed Key Generation). This setup boosts fault tolerance—if one or two nodes go offline or are compromised, the validator stays operational and the full private key is never concentrated in one place, significantly slashing security risk.

Obol also integrates a rewards distribution mechanism, Obol Splits, that lets cluster participants define on‑chain how staking rewards are split—non‑custodial, transparent, and immutable.

The Obol Stack is a plug‑and‑play framework that sits on Kubernetes and Helm, enabling users to deploy and maintain decentralized infrastructure—like Ethereum validators, full nodes, L2 sequencers, DePIN nodes, AI agents, and more—in an enterprise‑grade but user‑friendly fashion.

Whether you're a solo home operator or part of a global datacenter cluster, the Stack lets you package, version, and deploy your setup via Helm charts—then share or discover them through the Obol App Store. This means no wrestling with Bash, Docker Compose, or fragile scripts—everything's containerised, composable, and ready to scale.
