• The goal of the SSVDivers Program is to provide community members with resources, direction, and opportunities.
  • The programs are available to both current and prospective SSV community members.

The SSV Network protocol’s governing organization, SSV Network DAO, has revealed two brand-new community initiatives. SSV community engagement and participation will rise as a result of the SSVDivers Ambassador Program and Community Associates Program, which both provide incentives for participation.

The goal of the SSVDivers Program is to provide community members with resources, direction, and opportunities to demonstrate their abilities by suggesting and overseeing personal projects that are in line with their interests and the goals of the SSV Network. Members will be able to use their varied skills and the power of SSV technology to influence the direction of decentralized staking in the future.

LinkoPlus of SSVdivers:

“It’s an honor to represent and help the SSV community. My personal project involves setting up a node operator on my Rock5b (an affordable single-board computer) to run on the Holesky testnet and writing a guide about that to inspire others to join the Ethereum staking journey. Being part of an organization that lives up to the Ethereum ethos is amazing, and it’s awesome to see how fast SSV is growing!”

Meanwhile, community members will be encouraged to take part in marketing campaigns, produce and localize content, promote SSV, and increase participation within the SSV ecosystem via the Community Associates Program.

Both programs provide a variety of incentive mechanisms, such as community recognition and limited-edition products in addition to rewards. The initiatives, which are slated to continue for at least a year, will provide community members additional avenues for involvement and increase knowledge of SSV technology and its potential to support decentralized staking.

At a special community call in the SSV Discord , the launch of the two programs and the 1M ETH staked milestone will be celebrated. During the call, there will also be a 500XP raffle for the community ambassadors. The programs are available to both current and prospective SSV community members who want to use their current abilities and be rewarded for the content they produce.

Elad Gafni, Operations Manager of the SSV Foundation, said:

“Driving greater adoption of SSV technology isn’t just a task for developers: it calls for participation of the entire community, whose skills are instrumental in raising awareness of the many ways in which DVT modules can be used to enhance the ETH staking landscape. The SSVDivers Ambassador Program and Community Associates Program provide a practical way for the community to get directly involved and reap the rewards and recognition their hard work warrants. In the process, they’ll help to create the content and other valuable resources that will make it easier for builders to create novel applications based upon SSV’s open source protocol.”

DVT-powered staking and restaking apps may be built by developers thanks to SSV’s distributed validator technology. SSV is an open-sourced, DAO-owned protocol that third-party developers may utilize for free to build apps that bolster the Ethereum and its L2 network staking ecosystem.

More than 32,000 ETH validators are now being secured by more than 720 decentralized node operators on the SSV Network. There are now 41 SSV-based services and applications in development, ranging from Restaking to Tooling.

A layer that allows ETH validator nodes to be geographically spread over many machines with various components is provided by SSV’s DVT infrastructure. SSV recently commemorated the staking of one million Ethereum and added SSV nodes to the Lido Simple DVT module.
