RockX is delighted to announce that it is expanding its API services to Elrond and will be running validator nodes on the Elrond ecosystem. This exciting new partnership will make Elrond even more accessible to developers and users around the world.
Elrond’s Adaptive State Sharding technology dramatically increases the performance of their blockchain, allowing for much higher throughput while maintaining their blockchain’s security. Developers who hope to make use of this technology on Elrond can now leverage RockX’s access nodes API to build on Elrond or simply access its on-chain data.
Aside from contributing to our data availability decentralization by expanding the range of options for on-chain data, the RockX collaboration also marks an important addition to our validator ecosystem, further widening the span of staking options our community can choose from.
